[Haifux] [W2L] Call for lecturer + "Linux guru"

[Shlomi Fish]

ׁHi Eli!

Sending only to the Haifux mailing list. Maybe I'll forward it to 
w2l at projects.hamakor.org.il later on.

Sounds good. Thanks for the initiative!

Would you like to cooperate with Telux/TelFOSS on the Welcome-to-FOSS 
initiative? http://welcome.foss.org.il/2009/ . I've already updated the front 
page and plan to revamp more soon. I should note that I have no problem with 
Haifux focusing on "Welcome-to-Linux" instead of the more general "Welcome-to-
FOSS", but all the participating Israeli clubs should probably have a unified 
site there.

If you feel like discussing the series in its global aspect, please subscribe 
to http://hamakor.org.il/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/w2l .

I may attend the configuration party and stuff, given that someone can give me 
a ride from Tel Aviv, and that I will feel calm enough at that day. 

Regards,

	Shlomi Fish
