Chuck, The main problem with tomorrow was that we didn't have a room reserved and I dropped the ball sending out the reminder email. Beyond that on a selfish side note I can't make tomorrow but I can make next Thursday. Thanks, Tim. On Wed, Oct 7, 2015 at 1:23 PM, Chuck Anderson <cra@wpi.edu> wrote:

Tomorrow is the 2nd Thursday of the month.

We actually haven't done a round table in a while. David, I like your idea for the home automation / vision processing as well. I just went looking and there are 10+ companies that make linux based home automation products. I've messed with the the opencv stuff and my co worker is using it read his water meter and do OCR.

Keith, it would be cool to have someone (other than me) talk about managing large amounts of data. Drop a line to your friend and see if they'd be willing to do a talk.

I talked a bit about hadoop as well since I've been working with that. I could with some prep give a talk about hadoop if people were interested. I've also been playing with the parallel python stuff as well.

My plan is to send out a reminder that the meeting is going to be next Thursday. It's a bit too soon to get anything put together on either of these topics, but we should talk them through next Thursday and see if anybody has more ideas as well.

Thanks, Tim.

I would like to see a presentation on using linux for home automation or a presentation on using linux for vision processing.

Hey Gang,

What would people like to do for WLUG this month?

Thanks, Tim.

Oh, oh, nobody answers.

I don't want WLUG to die for lack of interest.

If we can't get a speaker and a topic, let's do a discussion circle---everyone takes a turn to answer the question "For what do you use Linux?"

I know some people use it at work to manage multi-terabyte databases, and some build little microprocessor gadgets, but I would be interested to know the full range, and maybe learn about some new applications.
