This months meeting we will be welcoming Andy Davidson Of Hurricane Electric to the LUG to give us all a primer on IPv6 and also for those of us that want to a practical example of what its all about. This kind of goes without saying but if you want to get the most out of it you might want to bring a laptop!

If you fancy, you could publicise the next meetings of BradLUG with this
handy pdf poster. Created by our very own Wayne, please feel to download and distribute.
I guess if you'd like to get a copy of the file that made it, you should
mail him - I reckon he'd be happy to share.

Nice to see everyone again in the new year.
Last night's meeting was a bit of a mish mash of news and new ideas. So:
Dates for your diary:
First Saturday of March, June, September, December 2011 will be days when we can spend some more time looking in depth at things of interest (yes it's a vague as that). We'd like people to suggest topics, offer their services, etc and then the group will offer help and support to make it happen.
We'll get these dates on our calendar, it's looking like Arduino might be the first day (March 5th)
Nige agreed to draw together a
calendar of big events and to get those on the calendar as well (this after Martin informed us that UKLUG is going to be in Leeds this year, 22nd-24th March)
Bradford Jelly - next meeting 11th Feb, Bradford Uni.

It seems that, like certain members of British royalty, we have 2 birthdays, and it was agreed that our 'official' celebrations would take place in September! There are rumours of a birthday cake. It is not yet confirmed whether the cake is a lie.
The topic for the meeting this month is, erm, the meetings:
- What do members like?
- What don't we like?
- Would members like to have more meetings?
- Or perhaps tutorials/workshop sessions?
