Announce: April WLUG Meeting: ZFS: Changed time/location

by Chuck Anderson

Hi folks, This month, the Worcester Linux Users' Group (WLUG) monthly meeting will be held on THURSDAY instead of the usual Wednesday, and the meeting will be starting promptly at 7PM since we must finish and be out of the room by 8PM. Additionally, the location is different this month: Thursday, April 12, 7:00 - 8:00 PM WPI Campus Center, Mid-Century Room (room 331) Longtime WLUG member Tim Keller will be talking about ZFS, the Zettabyte FileSystem for Oracle Solaris and FreeBSD (ports available for Linux too). I'm sure there will be a demo as well. Afterwards, we will go out for pizza and continue our discussions. See you there, Chuck President, Worcester Linux Users' Group

Talk for April... Thursday April 12?

by Chuck Anderson

How would people feel about having the April meeting on Thursday April 12 instead of Wednesday April 11? I won't be available on Wednesday.

Thanks Tim, I think an offical ZFS talk would be great. I'll update the website and IRC channel.

Re: [Wlug] Talk for April...

I believe the previous talk was about btrfs and compared it to zfs. I would consider this talk a stand alone talk that would focus on the features of zfs. Though my head's really full of noise. It's quite possible I did a talk about zfs and don't even remember! Later, Tim. On 3/27/12, James Gray <jamespgray(a)gmail.com> wrote: > I'd like to hear more about ZFS.

Re: [Wlug] Talk for April...

I'd like to hear more about ZFS. As you know there was a previous presentation on ZFS as well, so it would be nice to cover some new ground. I'd like to see some ZFS in action.

Re: [Wlug] Invitation to connect on LinkedIn

by Tim Keller

Just so there's no confusion or overlap... there IS a facebook group for the Worcester Linux Users Group for which I'm the group owner. I made absolutely sure this group is NOT associated with the wlug(a)wlug.org when I created it. It has the address: worcester.linux.users.group(a)groups.facebook.com Thanks, Tim.
