Hi,
Anyone on here using Charter Telephone VOIP service? I've currently
got Verizon, but the wife hates it because our phone lines get flaky
all the time, esp when it rains.
So I'm thinking to save money and combine all my stuff onto Charter.
I've already got High Speed internet and regular old cable. Not wild
about Digital Cable since I'm happy with Tivo and I don't want yet
another set top box to have to deal with...
So, any horror stories about Charter Phone VOIP quality and service?
Thanks,
John
I'm game

Sounds like a great idea! We've been getting more into it for some group
projects here over the last few months, and would love to hear more about it.

At first I thought that this was a message on the other
mailing list, because the Guile-Scheme mailing list has
broken into discussion of Gitorious, Github, etc.

Great, I can collaborate with myself, and not bother
other people with my half-baked ideas!

Sounds good to me.
Is GitLab the same as git itself?
I don't know much about this, but might be able
to keep my mouth shut long enough to learn.
In other words, if you do a presentation, then Yes,
I'll listen, but if you lead a discussion,
then you lead from before.

Hey Gang,
Would people be interested in my talking about GitLab? It's basically your
own personal Github.
I could also dove tail this into a general talk about Git / Source Control,
etc.
Thanks,
Tim.

The IEEE has put this meeting information out to it's members. There may
be a boat-load of people there tonight.

Hey,
Jon has to bug out early tonight. My plan is to bring a pizza for John and
his buddy as well as bring along some snacks for us and we'll go out
afterwards.
If the crowd is large enough we might have to change venues, but I figure
we'll roll with it.
Thanks,
Tim.

Hey Gang,

Abstract: Only a month after a massive heart attack maddog will be talking
about some of the projects he is working on:

So I'm going to arrange to have some pizza delivered! I expect that after
the meeting we're going to head off to wooberry or elsewhere for dessert.
