Tuesday 16 February - Seniors - Graham Grant - 9.30am - 12.30 pm

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tuesday 16 February - Genealogy - Terry Eakin - 12.30pm - 3.00pm
 
The session will cover Australian Sources for Family History, and will extend over the next two SIGs, with getting started first and more advanced Australian research and if there is enough interest the session will extend into April as well. This should suit everyone as all will have Australian ancestors unless you are the first generation.
 
There will be a printed paper prepared and emailed.

Saturday 20 February - Web Design - Robert Hume - 1.30pm - 4.30pm
 
kompozerJust a reminder that the first of our "from scratch" web design sessions is Saturday 20th February.
 
Bob says "I've been using the Beta version (0.8b1) for a while now, NOT the regular version (0.7.10) which crashes all the time under XP." His experience does not match mine, but there is a problem if you edit the 'source code' view in some ways causing a crash. We won't do this much, but you should probably follow his suggestion.
