Welcome to HantsLUG!

.. otherwise known as the Hampshire [Linux User Group].

We aim to encourage and support the use of Linux and other free operating systems. We do this in several ways:

• MailingList - where most activity happens. You can view the [archives] too
• Meetings - once per month alternating between Southampton University and Nokia Farnborough. Occasionally we go to IBM HursleyLabs
• this Wiki website - which is a collaboration of many people's work
• IrcChannel (Internet Relay Chat)

There is no requirement to be in Hampshire to join, in fact about half of our members are from outside Hampshire.
