[olug] OLUG November meeting conformation & reminder

[OBrien, Timothy (Omaha Linux Users Group - OLUG)]

In case you are not subscribed for the OLUG.org mailing list I am sending
this out on the OLUG mailing list. Sorry I could not send it out sooner
but access to OLUG Webmail was down.



Reminder: The next OLUG meeting will be held on 4 November 2003 with the
following agenda:

First, our presentation:  Getting Linux in the Door, an Experienced
Evangelist's Guide
By: Aaron Grothe, NebraskaCERT

A case oriented presentation, along the ways that Linux has made its way
into the company Aaron currently works for and how he has used Linux doing
consulting gigs.

Aaron is willing to do Q&A on almost anything that he is not under NDA on;
which might affect a couple of Xandros/Lindows questions, but other than
that all is fair game.

His Incredibly Rough Outline (IRO):

I.     Overcoming interia
II.    Low Hanging Fruit
        a. firewalls
        b. proxys
        c. web servers
        d. snort
        e. etc
III.   Open Source as a Potential First Step to Linux
       a. OpenOffice
       b. Mozilla
IV.    BSD - Linux's cousin as a step
        a. OpenBSD in special situations
V.     Releasing your code under an Open Source license
        a. ISODE
        b. Sleepycat
        c. Xandros
VI.    Resources
VII.    Q & A

Second: Install fest discussion & planning

The first install fest for 2004 is rapidly approaching. We need to decide
on the day, and other important decisions.
Have you voted yet as to your preference on when to have the install fest?


Third: OLUG Q & A

Have a question? Problem? Bring them up now!


After meeting: OLUG SIG-BEER at The Old Dundee, 49th & Dodge (next to the
