The Waikato branch of the New Zealand Computer society have asked me to extend an invitation to WLUG members to attend a dinner and seminar on 30 June 2005, from 6pm to 10pm.

The meeting is being held at the Okoroire Hotel (near Tirau), and consists of a gourmet three course dinner ($35.00 per head), and two speakers commencing at approximately 7:30pm.

The speakers are Dave Nichols, a lecturer from the University of Waikato, speaking on "Usability and Open Source Software", and Graham Lauder, marketing contact for OpenOffice.org in New Zealand, speaking on "Disrupting the Market Leader".

Further information, including links to registration, is available at http://www.nzcs.org.nz/tools/events/event.asp?SECT=waikato_bop&ID=714.
