CS300 Coffee

<p>Ksmith: /* Members */</p>
<hr />
<div>==Why==<br />
<br />
CS300 was donated a shiny espresso machine.<br />
It feeds on coffee beans and milk.<br />
To ensure that there are plentiful supplies of both, this club exists.<br />
<br />
While the members won't mind you stealing one cup of espresso a year,<br />
if you want to use it more regularly than that, please join up and help with the costs.<br />
<br />
==Things we need==<br />
<br />
* Milk jug<br />
* Espresso cups?<br />
* Carlton roll<br />
<br />
==Running costs==<br />
<br />
{| border=1<br />
! Item !! Price !! Weekly usage<br />
|-<br />
| Coffee || R200 / kg || 1kg?<br />
|-<br />
| Milk || R10 / l || 2l?<br />
|}<br />
<br />
Works out at around R500 / month.<br />
We'll charge a R100 joining fee and work out membership fees once we have an idea of usage.<br />

<p>Ksmith: /* Might attend */</p>
<hr />
<div>On Saturday 1 May, the Linux Enthusiasts Group are meeting in Stellenbosch from 11:00-16:00 to celebrate the latest Ubuntu release, Lucid Lynx, and we will be joining them. There will be interesting talks on open source software, an opportunity to get help installing Lucid and fixing any problems, followed by a braai. We are trying to get a shuttle to take us to Stellenbosch. This will be a good opportunity to meet others interested in programming and technology, or even to find team members for the next ACM ICPC. If you might attend, add your email address below and we will send you final details closer to the time.<br />
