BALUG "announce" list Want to be sure and catch important BALUG news/announcements? It is also a "low volume" list (generally maximum of 3 emails per month, and sometimes as few as only one). Consider subscribing directly so you don't miss any such announcements and they're emailed to you in a timely manner. http://lists.balug.org/listinfo.cgi/balug-announce-balug.org

2012-12 other Linux stuff Missing and wanting to have more Linux in December? Maybe even in San Francisco with Chinese food? You may want to check out some of these items:
Bay Area Debian (BAD) (unofficial) meetup Wed. Dec. 5th at Henry's Hunan (Natoma) SF 7pm http://bad.debian.net/list/2012-November/003522.html http://bad.debian.net/

San Francisco Linux Users' Group (SF-LUG) http://www.sf-lug.com/ first Sundays 11a-1p & third Mondays 6p-8p
Noisebridge - among other things, has many Linux, Open Source, computer/digital/electronics/hardware and related events/activities, many of them weekly. http://www.noisebridge.net/
new group/meeting: Ubuntu Hour Berkeley - first meeting Dec. 1 3-4pm http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-california/2125/detail/
And probably some other events/meetings I've forgotten to include or don't have details on quite at my fingertips.
And, as soon as you start missing "Hey, those other groups and meetups generally don't have a speaker/presentation!" - we generally *do* have that at BALUG - along with Chinese food, etc.
