Meetings

Manchester Free Software meets regularly: There are general group meetings which will often be talks on the various issues we cover, discussions, workshops; and there are administrative meetings that deal with the running of the group and organisation of group meetings and events.

Group Meetings

Group meetings occur on the third Tuesday of the month at 19:00. The normal format is a talk in the MDDA, followed by informal discussion in FAB Cafe next door.
