                 Akiba Tour & Extra Nomikai

TLUG regular nomikai meetings are held every 3rd Friday of even months
(the next will be on August 18). Extraordinarily this month, IN ADDITION
to the regular meeting there will be an extra nomikai on August 5 (Sat),
where Marcus Metzler will join us.

Marcus is a TLUG member, known in the Linux community for having written
with his brother the Linux BTTV driver for video capture, that was later
incorporated into the kernel distribution. He will be back in Japan for a short
stay, giving us an excuse to gather and have a beer together.

In the same day, TLUG own "Mr. Akihabara" Kinichi Kitano  will guide us
through Akihabara and show the best places to look for "designed for
Linux" parts and second-hand computers and peripherals.
