                                     by
                               Daniel Hedlund
                           


    The amount of information available on the Internet has
    exploded in recent years and shows no sign of slowing down.
    Most of this information is freely available to anyone with
    a web browser --- but what does free mean?  Daniel Hedlund
    will lead a discussion on the meaning of open data and explore
    how the open source movement is no longer constrained to the
    realm of software.

            7:00 - 7:30  Business
                 We will discuss the status of our ongoing projects
                 including PLUG's monthly Advanced Topics meetings,
                 PLUG's monthly hands on clinics, PLUG for Education,
                 etc.

                                PRESENTATION


                                   A Talk
                                     by

                               Jeri Ellsworth
                               (Circuit Girl)

    Jeri Ellsworth is a native Oregonian, born in Yamhill and raised
    in Dallas, Oregon.  Early on she became fascinated with electronics
    and 8-bit computers setting the stage for her unique approach to
    learning.  Not being challenged in school, she skipped higher
    education to pursue a career in car-racing and chassis fabrication.
    After that, she opened a chain of computer stores in Oregon and
    Washington.  She sold those to peruse a career in chip design,
    which lead her to design the CommodoreOne - based upon the
    Commodore 64 - using reconfigurable logic and the C64 DTV 30-
    games-in-one joystick, selling, a quarter million units.
    She currently works as an Oregon based consultant.

    I'm not sure what Jeri is going to speak about yet, but judging
    the talk she gave at Sanford, it should be very good indeed.
    See a video of her Sanford talk at:
    http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1053309060448851979#

    Also, see her webs sites at:
    http://www.jeriellsworth.com/
    and
    http://www.fatmanandcircuitgirl.com/

    Note:  Jeri was originally scheduled to give this talk last month,
    but it didn't happen due to unexpected illess.  Thus, we have
    reschedule her for March.

                                PRESENTATION

                                  Fun with
                        "blktrace" and "seekwatcher"

                                     by

                           M. Edward (Ed) Borasky
                             


    blktrace is a command that generates traces of the i/o
    traffic on block devices such as hard drives.

    seekwatcher generates graphs from blktrace runs to help
    visualize IO patterns and performance. It can plot multiple
    blktrace runs together, making it easy to compare the differences
    between different benchmark runs.

    Ed will show us how to install and use these cool tools.

   What went wrong with my disaster recovery plan

 by

Brian Martin

 Although many organizations have disaster recovery plans,

 experienced during an actual disaster in the aftermath of the
 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake.
 This non-technical presentation will be suitable to anyone
 involved in or even thinking about disaster recovery.

You realize that's 3 days from now.  =)

Alas, I will be unavailable until at least 4:30pm in Eugene, which means
I'll miss this for sure even if others are going up.  =(
