How You Can Help the Tel Aviv Open Source Club

[Shlomi Fish]

Hi all!

Yesterday we held a meeting where Zvi Devir gave his "Windows Refund HOWTO", 
which was an interesting presentation about a widely-discussed topic, that 
received a lot of publicity. I publicised this meeting on several mailing 
lists, as well as on whatsup, linmagazine, and other forums. We also have some 
feeds, and a Google calendar for the events (also in iCal format) if people 
wish to subscribe to them exclusively.

However, despite all that, only 5-6 people (including the presenter and me) 
came to hear the talk. The question is why?

Zvi already advised me that next times I should approach TAU-specific channels 
and publicise it there. I'll talk with Eddie Aronovich, who is our contact in 
the university about it. However, it still doesn't explain why many previous 
Telux attendees, who are not associated with the university did not come.

So:

1. What is the reason you did not come?

2. I set up a page about how you can help the club:

Please read it and any additions or suggestions will be welcome.

---------------------

Would you prefer to deprecate Telux, and to announce that it was good while it 
lasted, but there's no point in organising further presentations? I'm tired of 
being the only one who cares and volunteers.

Regards,

<mauke>    I'm not interested in what you're doing; what are you trying to 
           achieve?

           the last thing standing in my way! ;)
