Thanks, Eric! Incidentally, the airport does, apparently, close sometimes. I haven't figured out where the hours are posted.

For that matter, the library itself. I can't imagine they would shutdown their routers & everything else just for one day, would they? Maybe they do, but you could probably test it from the parking lot on Sunday when they are normally closed anyway. Although the airport sounds groovier, plus the rest rooms there might be open too.

It looks like the airport has free WiFi and free short term parking. I'm guessing they are open 24 hours.

Re: [Wlug] Where to get free WiFi

by Richard Klein

I realize it's risky, but I don't have internet to my house and looking things up on my tiny phone screen is driving me nuts. I have a laptop running opensuse that's useless without WiFi.

Where to get free WiFi

by Richard Klein

Does anyone know where in or near Worcester I can get WiFi without buying food, when the libraries are closed? Do any of the colleges have guest wifi?

Re: [Wlug] WLUG 20th Anniversary BBQ

by Tim Keller

I've just realized that there's a good chance I won't be around in July. So... I propose we do the BBQ in August or thereafter. Venue to still be decided. Thanks, Tim.

Hi all, I will be up in Maine most of July and August. Would do my best to attend if it falls September or later. Not trying to change the event schedule, just a happy reply to the question.

I really want as many people to show up as possible, so what works best for people? July 13th or August 10th? Next question is where? Could we have it at WPI? Once we get an idea of how many people are coming we can then ask who'd be comfortable hosting it? Thanks, Tim.
