As you might have heard, there was yet another Cyprus Linux User Group meeting yesterday.\u00a0 It was, as usual, aligned to the recent Ubuntu and upcoming Fedora releases.\u00a0 This time the even took place in the new University of Cyprus campus, in Nicosia.\u00a0 There were slightly more people than the last time, but I was hoping for even more.<\/p>\n
There were three presentations and one workshop.\u00a0\u00a0 Theo did a traditional Ubuntu Linux presentation in Greek.\u00a0 Alexandros presented, also in Greek, about Linux in Cyprus education – a very interesting one, too bad my Greek is so poor.\u00a0 And then I did a presentation in English about what Linux has to offer to students and why they should get involved.\u00a0 Here are the slides from my talk (Linux for Students<\/a> and Linux for Students<\/a>).\u00a0 After the presentations, Constantinos did a workshop about Compiz and Elisa media library.\u00a0 Both looked quite impressive.<\/p>\n After the event a few of us went to the tavern for some really awesome meze and beer.\u00a0 Altogether – good fun.<\/p>\n P.S.: If you missed the event, keep an eye on Ubuntu Cyprus<\/a> web site and forums for announcements of the next one. Hope to see you there.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n As you might have heard, there was yet another Cyprus Linux User Group meeting yesterday.\u00a0 It was, as usual, aligned to the recent Ubuntu and upcoming Fedora releases.\u00a0 This time the even took place in the new University of Cyprus campus, in Nicosia.\u00a0 There were slightly more people than the last time, but I was … Continue reading Cyprus Linux User Group meeting<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1,22,6,106,62],"tags":[2241,2422,2242],"keyring_services":[],"class_list":["post-11915","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-general","category-cyprus","category-linux","category-nicosia","category-technology","tag-cypruslug","tag-events","tag-talks"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
