The 22nd would work for me.
Sounds like the 22nd is the "good enough" date for people. Now for a topic! Can we get a talk on the web browser being developed for the new non-linux system? I totally am blanking on the name(s) right now, but we've mentioned it at the past few meetings. I'll try to bring my new tiny little desktop. The only gotcha is that it depends on my home NFS server for NFS home directories and LDAP for authentication. Which leads to another topic... keeping home directories in sync when you have laptops, home servers, remote systems, etc. How do people keep their setups consistent? I came from an era of Xterms and DEC workstations where all home and tool directories were on NFS servers, and the systems were very light on anything but enough to boot the OS. This way people could sit down at any system, login and their environment was just there. Now with everyone having laptops, I think most colleges have gone away from big computer labs any more. But keeping your files safe is tough. iCloud, OneDrive, rsync, etc have helped, but I'm not sure what the real answer is here. This could be an interesting topic! John
