The November Manchester FSFE Fellowship meeting will take this Thursday 24th at 19.00 in MadLab:

Following on from Tuesday's lively discussion at MFS about Diaspora (a popular Free Software alternative to Facebook) we shall share ideas about how to move forward with providing Manchester with its own community hosting, making use of ArcSpace community centre's facilities.
- What services should we offer? - How many users should we aim to sign-up? - Who will do the technical set-up and maintenance? - How much should we charge?
These and many other questions will be raised. Please come along and share your thoughts, even if you're not sure about being involved with the project.
Recommended reading: an interview with the president of Fripost - a community hosting cooperative in Gothenburg, started one year ago and now with 60 members:

See you there!
