Dear nmglugers, thanks for those who have donated laptops for the programming course. I will be teaching on Saturday and Sunday. On Saturday, as usual, it would be good to get some help with the "installfest" with which I start the course. I will have 8 or more students with random old laptops and we need to quickly get them installed. I will have a large stash of DVDs and USB sticks with anything from Ubuntu 12.04 i386 to Ubuntu 16.04 adm64. If anyone feels like helping kids install GNU/Linux on Saturday morning, consider showing up at 10am on Saturday! I will urge the kids to show up early so as to get the installation part going. And anyone from nmglug who wants to learn Python is encouraged to come audit the course. More info is at: https://sites.google.com/site/santafecoding/
