I suggest that before choosing to use Ubuntu again, we scan the Ubuntu forums well in advance on 6.04 to see if other people have problems like the mentioned "Enterprise Volume Management System" error.
Absolutely. The key is to have something stable, whatever that is. I personally liked how Ubuntu 5.10 picked up all of my hardware automagically on this laptop. Typically, laptop hardware is less likely to be supported than desktop, so that's a good sign. I figure the 6 months after 6.04 comes out will be plenty of time to decide if it's the right choice.
I suggest that the two meetings before ITEC--to catch
the people who can only show up on a Tuesday but not Wednesday, and vice versa--be the official planning meetings for ITEC, and that anyone under 21 who wants to make CDs for ITEC make them by one of those meetings and bring them to that meeting. Chances are someone going to ITEC will be at one of those meetings.
I don't think that's early enough for planning, especially when we are talking about doing some kind of formal presentation. The planning needs to be done well ahead of then, and those last two meetings should suffice for assembling the materials for the show.
Is there a relatively cheap and/or free, preferably
OSS, application for creating those nifty autorun.exe programs for a homemade OpenCD-like CD? Seems to me
...
OpenOffice.org version 1.1.4 on it. Being able to hand out an OpenCD-like CD with OpenOffice.org 2.0 on the CD would be a lot better, especially since it would have KCLUG info on the CD.
Rather than autorun.exe, it can be an HTML document. It's trivial to put that in the autorun.inf file. There's a lot of flexibility there.
