[QGLUG] Site update and Installfest Plan

[Andy Fletcher]

I can provide a clean Amilo Pro 3515 laptop which works really well with
 Debian Etch for the installfest too - it uses madwifi on the ewireless.

The Aug15 Debian distribution also supports seamless filesystem
encryption in the installer and works really well. It also supports
Software RAID extremely well if you manually configure the partitions.

Note if we are doing this we should consider how to get access to
repositories from the room.  We should also use apt-cacher on one
machine to speed up installs - both for Etch and Ubuntu AKA 'Debian for
human beings'.

We should also add the following as default applications and utilities
W32codecs, Msttcorefonts, Libdvdread3, regionset, module-assistant,
skype and limewire.
