Couple of questions:
1. I'm on the WorldExchange/XNet network. Traffic local to the XN nw does not count towards my (75G) cap.
Are there any Uni's or FTP mirors available for Ubuntu/Deb & other distro's on the XN new?
2. I live & work in Auckland City & travelling out to Waikato on a scooter is problematic, to say the least.
Are there any other geek-meets closer to home?

There's Aucklug, which has monthly meetings, and there are various developer related meetings as well
