The Mello Mello Project
As part of our location scouting for Liverpool LUG, Jo made a visit to Mello Mello to ask them if we could use some space in their building for hosting the LUG. The result was quite interesting.
Greg from The Art Organisation (current managers of Mello Mello) has asked if we can setup a open source computer cluster that will hopefully be open to the public and artists alike. We jumped at the chance and we’re going to be visiting tomorrow morning to do some initial scouting and investigation. One of the key requirements that Greg had was to make this completely open source and free as in beer, The TAO have little to no money.
I’ll be able to post a few more details and some photos after tomorrow’s visit.
This sounds very similar to something Manchester Free Software have recently done at the Marbella Cafe in Manchester, as part of software freedom day.
