[LUGSB] Meeting on the 26th

For the Feb. 26th LUGSB meeting, we will have approximately 30 minutes of 
lightning talks, followed by a Q&A session.

--

For the lightning talks, lets limit presentations to 5 minutes.  In a previous 
meeting, we brainstormed some topics that members would like to see.  If you 
loathe one of the topics below, why not give a brief, informative and 
expository lightning talk about it to knock it off the list?

To avoid duplication of effort, if you'd like to give a lightning talk about a 
topic (and the list below is *not* exhaustive), please send an email to the 
list (lugsb at fsl.cs.sunysb.edu) informing everyone else.  Alternatively, 
surprise us all and give a lightning talk "sous l'impulsion du moment".  
Remember, talks will be limited to 5 minutes, unless we lack presenters.  So, 
to avoid being bored by that long-winded nerdy guy, show up yourself and 
dazzle us all.

--

For the Q&A session, we invite all inquiring members to air their grievances 
and make any inquiries public.  Specifically, we'll be happy to help you 
answer questions about Linux in general, installing it on your laptop, 
getting a particular piece of hardware to work, circumventing some nasty DRM, 
etc, etc.  Please attend so you can enlighten your colleagues.

--

As a reminder, the meeting is tomorrow, February 26th, in the CS building, in 
room 2311, which is sometimes 2129, depending on the local laws of  
bureaucraphysics.  Meet us there at a decidedly solid 7pm.

See you there!

five.sentenc.es is a personal policy that all email responses regardless of 
recipient or subject will be five sentences or less. It’s that simple.  I 
think.
