“For our friends in other cities, we’ve made a few
changes. The initial Linux Against Poverty event will be in Austin
only. Although I’ve been hosting events for almost 20 years, and
Ken and the Helios team has been averaging 350 donated computers
per year, this is the first time we’ve attempted a large
scale install fest. We will no doubt encounter snags. When problems
arise, we’d like to give them our full attention. In addition, we
would like be able to share with everyone how we overcome these
problems — so that no one else has to stumble through
them.”
