REMINDER: Meeting Thursday, June 13th, 7 PM

by Andy Stewart

Hi Everybody, This e-mail is to remind you about the upcoming WLUG meeting which is being held on Thursday, June 13th at 7:00 PM in Kinnicutt Hall on the WPI Campus in Worcester, MA, USA. With the arrival of my new daughter two weeks ago (May 24), it has been very busy at my house. Combined with some unrestful evenings, I have not had any time to prepare a presentation for this meeting. The floor is open for anybody who has a reasonable presentation to make to the group. Please contact me to make arrangements. As you've seen in the past, the presentation need not be extremely fancy. Feedback I've received from group members indicates that these presentations are well received, and are certainly better alternatives to sitting around for an hour trying to figure out what to discuss. :-) Recent Linux developments that might be fodder for discussion are KDE 3.0.x, United Linux, aptget-rpm, Mozilla 1.0, OpenOffice.org 1.0, and probably many other things. At this meeting, we can also attempt to finalize our plans for a WLUG summer barbecue. It might be a good idea to combine this with a 5th year anniversary celebration, as WLUG was originally founded in July of 1997. After the meeting, we will make our monthly pilgrimage to the Boynton Restaurant. -- Andy Stewart, Founder Worcester Linux Users' Group Worcester, MA USA http://www.wlug.org

Reminder! WLUG Meeting tonight! Topic: Fossil!

by Tim Keller

Hey Everybody, We've got a virtual meeting tonight, Thursday February 10th. Time: 7pm Location: https://meet.jit.si/WlugMA Presenter: Bill Cattey Topic: Fossil - Github in a box! Long time member Bill Cattey will be giving a talk/demo about Fossil. From the website: https://www2.fossil-scm.org/ <https://www2.fossil-scm.org/> Fossil is a simple, high-reliability, distributed software configuration management system with many integrated advanced features, including things such as bug tracking, wiki, forum, email alerts, chat and tech notes. Many of us are daily users of various SCM systems, such as git, so it'll be great to see what other innovations in the SCM space are out there. I'll be recording this meeting and posting it on our youtube channel. Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

I don't think I would do an in-person meeting. - Bob Evans -----Original Message----- From: Worcester Linux Users' Group General Discussion Sent: Feb 7, 2022 6:14 PM To: Worcester Linux Users' Group General Discussion Cc: Tim Keller Subject: [WLUG] Hey Everybody! We've got a meeting this week! Hey Everybody, We've got a meeting on Thursday! As of right now I don't have anything lined up, but I'm working on it. If someone has something they're interested in talking about, please let me know. We'll definitely talk about the polkit fiasco! That's for sure. The next question is this.. Virtual or physical?

Reminder meeting tonight at 7pm! Topic: "Infrastructure as Code website with free hosting"

by Tim Keller

We've got a meeting on Thursday August 11th 2022 Topic: Infrastructure as Code website with free hosting. Physical Location: Mid-Century Room at WPI! Virtual Location: https://meet.jit.si/WlugMA Speaker: Althea Shaheen The days of websites simply being static pages of HTML are behind us. As the web changes and the technologies underpinning complex websites grow and evolve, managing all this by hand becomes nearly impossible. Load balancers, database servers.. Now what if this website also needs to be scaled across cloud providers and on prem? What happens when your favorite cloud company whose data center is just a bunch of shipping containers burns to the ground? How easily could you reconstitute your website and all the underpinnings? Althea is going to speak to how they deploy their website and manages the entire process as code. I'd like to thank Chuck for facilitating getting Althea in contact with us. If you know people who'd like to speak, please let me know. YES, WE ARE MEETING AT WPI AGAIN!!! Unfortunately as I've been in close contact with someone with covid, I'll be unable to make it physically to the meeting, but I will be attending virtually. Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

Upcoming meeting

by Andy Stewart

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 HI Everybody, Our next WLUG meeting will be held on Wednesday, Sept. 15th at 7:00 PM in the Access Grid room at WPI. Directions can be found on the WLUG website. This meeting's topic will be "Gentoo". You can find more info here: http://www.gentoo.org/ We have a couple of people who have volunteered to bring in their Gentoo machines. I would encourage anybody who has used Gentoo to come and teach those of us who are less familiar. Since nobody has (yet) volunteered to give a talk, I hope that enough people with Gentoo experience will be at the meeting, and we can have sort of a "round table" (as it were) discussion. See ya there!

Hi Andy, I have, and can demo LTSP, as well as using sockets in a Linux/ Win4Lin environment to do distributed, Linux/Windows batch jobs (I have a batch job that runs perl under Linux (requires too much memory for win4lin) and three windows programs under win4lin in order to convert RTF to ThML). Rob Bellville has some Macs running LTSP at the Millbury HS, and said he'd be willing to host a WLUG meeting at the school so we could have a hands-on demo. Unfortunately, I have aconflict on Wednesdays, so can only make the Thursday meetings. Perhaps at a future date we can work something out. --Skip

Hi Andy, This is Jamie, that's my driveway. :) The BBQ was this past Thursday, sorry you missed it. I should probably hose off the chalk, although maybe its a good thing I left it since you found it! Do come to the next meeting, although it sounds like we have a mini-lug right here in the neighborhood. -Jamie p.s. What kind of dog do you have? I've probably seen you walk by. > Thanks, > Andy
