Hi folks,

WineHQ Europe, Marcus Meissner, reporting...

I was invited to give two talks in Denmark last weekend (by the FLUG and
DKUUG, but the latter skimmed out), which I did.

The first talk was saturday at Odense in front of approx 50 people of
the FLUG (www.flug.dk). I did hold a talk about WINE (mostly a general
introduction with emphasis on technical status and how a normal user
can help) and did a small demonstration afterwards. (WinWord, Internet
Explorer (did not work as well), playing .avi files using a Linux program
linked to WINELIB (aviplay) and the installer of the StarWars:The Phantom
Menace Demo (which I got on the way to denmark at Pizzahut in Hamburg
as special deal ;))

I could not demonstrate "Lucas Arts:The Curse Of Monkey Island" at this
time, because the laptop did not have a supported soundcard ... Which
lead to a "10 minutes" (== 1 hour) fix, where I made DirectSound work
without soundcard ;)

Sunday I held the talk in Arhus at the Linux User Group there in front
of approx 30 people. The talk and demos went a bit better than Saturday.

Thanks again to Jesper "jews" Pedersen for inviting me, him and his
girlfriend for providing hospitality over the weekend, the people of
the FLUG/ALUG and the sponsors ;)

No chance for spending the partyfund money unfortunately ;)

Ciao, Marcus
