------------------------------
For our 2014-07-15 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 and
discussions. 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). 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.
