This month PLUG welcomes back John Karr, who will be giving a talk
about Linux Mint and the Cinnamon user interface.  Mint is Linux
distribution based on Ubuntu and Debian.  Cinnamon is a desktop
interface forked from the GNOME Shell that may be of interest to
those seeking an alternative to the directions being taken by Unity
and GNOME 3.

The meeting will take place on Wednesday, June 5, from 7-9 pm at

USP is located in University City.Driving directions are
available at http://www.phillylinux.org/locations/usp.html, or

view of the campus buildings. USP is also easily accessible by
public transportation.

There will be an open Question & Answer session at 7PM, prior to
the main presentation at 8PM. This is an open meeting; all are
welcome and encouraged to attend.

Usually, a number of members get together after the meeting at a
nearby restaurant for food and perhaps a beer or two. Come join
the camaraderie!
