Paul Robert Marino
(Apologies for anyone omissions I may have made)
Discussions included at this meeting were:
1. Software Freedom Day 2004 (August 28, 2004)
Preparations for Software Freedom Day are still being formed within a core
group of NYLXS
(Mike Richardson, Evan Inker, Steve Milo, Adam Kosmin & Ruben Safir). We
still need to formulate a time and place to film the SFD Video Clips we had
decided upon earlier in May 2004 as well as get members to submit their
filming notes. Handouts at SFD will be a bootable Linux Distro (leaning
towards Mempis or Knoppix Linux) as well as The OpenCD which NYLXS will be
producing as well as customized CD labels. As reported by Evan, the SFD
Project has not secured any sponsors sp each group must fend for itself in
terms of Capital Expenditure layout (aka Money for stuff) and pressed CDs
will need to be purchased, hence the reason NYLXS should do their own.
Literature for SFD will also need to be produced as well locally. Funding
for approximately 500 Blank CDs would be US $150.00. Funds will need to be
secured for this project ASAP. CDs as well as literature will be produced by
NYLXS members.....
2. Freedom IT 2005
The Freedom-IT 2005 Conference was discussed briefly. A separate planning
and implementation meeting for Freedom-IT was called due to its complex
nature and need to be discussed as a stand-alone-alone project. Date is
still pending for the Freedom IT Meeting....
3. Free Software Classes (FSI)
FSI Free Software Classes are tentatively scheduled to resume the week of
July 12. Joe Grastara has graciously consented to doing a UNIX 1 and/or Unix
2 course on Tuesday Evening and Ruben Safir will be doing a Perl 1 Course on

Ruben and will need to be addressed. Announcements and flyers will be needed
to be posted ASAP and volunteers are being sought.
4. Educational Initiative
Rob Marino will be doing an Educational Initiative during the Week for June
21, 2004 at a Manhattan location to be announced later. Rob will be hosting
