REMINDER: 2014-03-18 TOMORROW Tu: BALUG meeting!
For our 2014-03-18 BALUG meeting, at least presently we don't have a
specific speaker/presentation lined up for this meeting, but that
doesn't prevent us from having interesting and exciting meetings.
Sometimes we also manage to secure/confirm a speaker too late for us to
announce or fully publicize the speaker (that's happened at least twice
in the past six or so years). Got questions, answers, and/or
opinions? We typically have some expert(s) and/or relative expert(s)
present to cover Linux and related topic areas. Want to hear some
interesting discussions on LINUX and other topics? Show up at the
meeting, and feel free to bring an agenda if you wish. Want to help
ensure BALUG has speakers/presentations lined up for future meetings?
Help refer speakers to us and/or volunteer to be one of the speaker
coordinators. Good food, good people, and interesting conversations to
be had.
So, if you'd like to join us please RSVP to:
rsvp(a)balug.org
**Why RSVP??**
Well, don't worry we won't turn you away, but the RSVPs really help
BALUG and the Four Seas Restaurant plan the meal and meeting, and with
sufficient attendance, they also help ensure that we'll be able to eat
upstairs in the private banquet room.
