[NCLUG] Chase Douglas, multitouch presentation Jan 26 (next Thurs)

[Matt Dew]

Hi,
   Next Thursday Chase Douglas from Canonical (Ubuntu) is coming to 
Denver to give a presentation on multitouch and gestures support in 
X.org. If you're interested in multi-touch (using two or more fingers on 
  touchPads) or gestures (swipe, pinch, two-finger scroll, ...) you 
might find the drive worthwhile. Chase is one of the primary developers.
