From: "Roderick Klein" Dear OS/2/eComStation user, It has been sometime ago that VOICE last organized a SpeakUp. What is a SpeakUp? Well, its organized via IRC (Internet Relay Chat). On an IRC SpeakUp you will get a chance to talk to software developers, for instance. The person/organization/company invited for the SpeakUp will give a short introduction about himself and the product or project they work on. And then the real part of the SpeakUp starts! You can ask questions! Do you like Warpstock (www.warpstock.org)? Warpstock is great, but Warpstock is only organized once a year. Then you will like VOICE SpeakUps (depending on the subject, of course). We will try and organize SpeakUps every month on a subject of interest. What is new, is that SpeakUps will be organized twice. The first VOICE SpeakUp of the month will be targeted especially at the US. The second meeting will be targeted at Asia and Australia. This targeting will be accomplished by the timing of the IRC to suit the locale. The first two VOICE SpeakUp will be organized in September. The guest on that SpeakUp will be Jan van Wijk. Author the DFSEE, the swiss army knife for hard disk maintenance and data recovery. The following dates have been set (both are on a Saturday) 11 September 22:00-00:00 GMT (First SpeakUp targeted at US) 25 September 10:00-12:00 GMT (targetted at Asia and Australia). (Both times are London time!!) Note that the previous annouchment said Saturday 14th of September. This is of course wrong! Its Saturday the 11th of August.
