Hi John,
RMS was once hosted at 'Cooper union' with the help of Jay Sulzberger and
friends. </awaiting-for-jay-to-respond>
Also, once Gnubies had a meeting at Kaplan testing center near Astor
place in their lecture hall. Dont know who to contact there.
There was a lecture held for Eben Moglen at a west side library that I
think was used by Deluge </awaiting-for-mark-to-respond>.
Have you spoken to Og Maciel who was the last 'official' Ubuntu person
in the area before his recent job relocation about starting a more
formal local user group?
cheers,
Kev (a sometimes ubuntero)
