Coming Up

This Saturday the 12th will be Robert Carlile's TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE, which exhumes various Nix programs still useful in today's Linux context (and in virtualized environments if all else fails). Then down the road, we'll skip a session due to the General Meeting, THEN Aaron the Previous President will be along (looks like second Sat. of May) to do the Linux Audio show (latest edition).

Also, here's an IBM announcement Robert Spotswood was sent (thanks for forwarding it):
