BALUG TOMORROW! Tu 2011-08-16 BALUG meeting; & other BALUG "news"
Bay Area Linux User Group (BALUG) meeting Tuesday 6:30 P.M. 2011-08-16
Please RSVP if you're planning to come (see further below).
For our 2011-08-16 BALUG meeting, at least presently we don't have a specific speaker/presentation lined up and confirmed for this meeting (but we may have one on a security topic, or possibly something else - if you're directly subscribed to our "announce" list: http://lists.balug.org/listinfo.cgi/balug-announce-balug.org watch it and/or: http://www.balug.org/#Meetings-upcoming for announcements and potentially late-breaking updates. ). In any case, speaker/presentation or not, 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 five 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@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.
