A plug for PLUG

Part two of the Big Day was that it was Software Freedom Day and the Perth Linux Users Group had a meetup in the evening. I couldn’t in good conscience miss that opportunity given the shared heritage of myself attending Linux.conf.au in 2014 (I wore my shirt all day as proof) and themselves hosting it.

I’m not great with names but I met at least Percy, James, Nick, Jack and (sorry) others, on my way back (well, a wide detour) from DDD Perth.

I’m now a signed-up if only virtual member of PLUG. Perth is a big place it’s hard to get out to see everyone when you don’t live or work near the city itself.

But I did learn an Easter egg and if you’re in or go to PLUG you’ll know what I mean when I say you’ll immediately know from the car park (I did!) if you’re in the right place.
