[NTLUG:Discuss] Software Freedom Day event in Dallas?

[stuart yarus]

Hi,

The address is 1825 Monetary Lane Suite #104 Carrollton, TX .  It is
less than 1/2 block from Tanner Electronics (if you know where that
is).  The general location is just west of I-35E about a mile north of
I-635 (LBJ construction alley).  The building is just north of Valwood
Parkway.  The address is also on the NTLUG web site, <www.ntlug.org>.
