I'm game for a meet-up also. I live just outside London however can travel.

Guess someone needs to take the lead and fix time/day and place.

Count me in.

Just Outside Liverpool. Don't know if I will be able to contribute much due to shift work, and travel might be a problem but a UK Gentoo User Group sounds good to me !

I'm interested in this, not sure how much i'd be able to contribute as i'm quite new to Linux & Gentoo in particular.
As for a meeting place, would it not make sense to meet somewhere in the midlands? That would seem to be fair, suggest Birmingham as it's pretty central.

I live in Guernsey which kind of excludes me from the meetings in the sense that it would mean flying or boating to get to one. Bugger. Would if I could, but I'll help out with anything if needed

Back again after a long time away - loads of work had to be done :cry:

If okay with others I do not mind speaking to the Gentoo.org team and finding out what is required to be able to use uk.gentoo.org. What do you think ?

Another UK (new user) here, Herts, UK.

This thread seems to have died a bit of a death, but I'd be interested in UK specific mailings, meets, etc.

Edinburgh and Glasgow are dead easy for me. London too, since there're cheap flights there if I book a few weeks in advance. Manchester is tricky for anyone who's not on the right side of the rail network...
