Hello all!
I today received our anniversary package in the post - we were one of the
lucky 15 LUGs!
(For all I know only 15 LUGs applied, or they sent packages to 100 LUGs and
told them all they were in the lucky 15, who knows?)
Details of what I have received are in the email below (sorry for the
top-posting, but it seemed appropriate in this instance).
I should actually be able to make it to the next meeting (shock horror!) but
if anyone wants to contact me off list to collect these in the meantime to
make sure they get there even if I don't (and to get yourself a chance for a
sneaky peek) then contact me off-list.

Just to let people know:
I received the following, and have responded on behalf of PLUG; if we're lucky
enough to receive an anniversary package I'll either bring it to a meeting or
get it to someone who can bring it.
The rest of the content may still be of interest to people.

Dear Mark,
We'd like to invite you and the members of your LUG to join us in celebrating
the 10th anniversary issue of Linux Magazine!
For the LUGs we've prepared 15 anniversary packages, which will be drawn from
the list of all LUGs that answer our mailing. Each of the packages contains
two copies of Linux-Magazine #120, #119 and #118, two copies of ADMIN
Magazine #01 and two copies of Ubuntu User #06 and #05. All you have to do is
to answer this email by the 1st of November with the delivery adress you'd
want the package sent to.
You can also join our grand anniversary prize draw! Starting from the 4th of
October you have the chance to win one free 10-year subscription or one of 10
1-year-subscriptions to Linux Magazine! Participation is easy: Just stay
subscribed or order a standard or DVD subscription of Linux Magazine, and in
January 2011 you have the chance to be the lucky winner of a free 10-year
subscription to Linux Magazine!
In this anniversary issue of Linux Magazine #120 we give you all the tricks,
all the hacks, all the apps and every single article we've ever published in
the 10-year history of Linux Magazine!
Read the past 10 years of Linux history as you browse through The Complete
Linux Magazine Archive DVD included in this anniversary issue.
Inside our 120th issue of Linux Magazine you'll:
- meet Linus Torvalds' parents: his mother takes us on a tour of Helsinki, and
his father talks about his son's early influences;
- check out the MeeGo mobile operating system as it prepares for take off;
- find out what Mark Shuttleworth says about the new gesture suite for touch
devices;
- learn about multi-core processing from the command line;
- get your Linux questions answered by Knoppix creator Klaus Knopper;
- and look back on our first issue and our 10-year history with Rikki Kite.
We'll also show you how to:
- roll your own OpenOffice extensions,
- access your iTunes library online,
- optimize and troubleshoot TCP connections,
- speed up the shell with GNU parallel,
- and much more!
The special anniversary issue of Linux Magazine will be on sale in UK and
Europe from the 4th of October but you can also order your copy here:
