The Monthly Meetings
Every month we try and get together for some face time at our monthly meeting. They are informal events, anyone interested in learning more or helping out is welcome to come and ask questions. We do try to keep the meeting agenda up to date so people can come informed and with some idea of what to expect.
The are normally held on the last Wednesday of each month but occasionally vary due to room availability. Times are announced on the news page and monthly meeting page as soon as we have confirmed times and dates.
The Mailing List
We run several fairly lively mailing lists. By reading the archives and asking questions there you should be able to get most of your questions answered.
The Weekly Meetings
Most weeks there is a small meeting of core members. We get together to work on problems that need to be solved. If you are just looking for help getting started your best bet is the mailing lists but if you're looking to get seriously involved this is the best way to meet the team. Meetings are normally announced on the admin list a couple days before they happen.
