I'm in, although I can't host since we have our hands pretty full with a newborn.

RFC: WLUG BBQ July/August timeframe

by Chuck Anderson

We usually have a WLUG summer BBQ around July or August, so I'd like to get the planning discussion going now. Are people interested in having a BBQ this year, and if so, would someone be willing to host it? WLUG should enough in the bank to fund the food, so all we need is a place with a BBQ grill and a time. Comments? Ideas? Chuck

Re: [Wlug] OPENING - Mid to Sr level SW Engineer - Linux, C++

I hope I did not insult anyone by asking for a Word resume for a "Linux" position, certainly not my intention. I get a lot of PDF's and my DB does not accept PDFs. At least I know you were reading my posting :) As I stated in my email, I will never send your resume anywhere without talking to you first.

It would be surprising of they asked for anything else. Even if it is a "Linux" job, the corporate/business world is dominated by MS products.

Not that surprising. It's not uncommon for companies to outsource the mechanics of hiring process (publishing listings, storing resumes, meeting resume retention laws, etc), and even if it's only being read by in-house people, the HR staff who get first crack at it are non-technical people likely to be on Windows or Mac anyway.

looking to join the local linux community

by Wolf Bronski

Hello, My name is Rich. I've been using Ubuntu and CentOS for a while now. I'm into servers and I'm interested in documentation. I'd very much like to come to the next meeting as I live very close to WPI. I've written a guide about running a Redmine server on CentOS 6.2. It's not complete because i want to add other repositories like Git and SVN besides Mercurial (hg). You can download it at http://107.22.171.253/hg/test/file/fb531026ab76 I've written it in DocBook but there is also a PDF in the repo. Please email me if you wish. Have a great day.
