PLEASE NOTE THE DIFFERENT DATE AND LOCATION from our normal meetings. We have another special event this month. We've been given booth space (#104, see below) at LinuxWorld, as well as a room to host our meeting in and rub elbows with our fellow open source enthusiats.
We also have Kris Kielhofner, creator of the AstLinux distribution (www.astlinux.org) giving a talk at our meeting. This is likely to be a standing room only event, so you may want to arrive a bit early.
