MHVLUG is proud to announce our December 2008 meeting: MHVLUG Christmas.
Come join MHVLUG for a holiday event sharing both knowledge and
goods. It will be night of [http://perl.plover.com/lt/ Lightning Talks]
followed by an MHVLUG swap fest. Bring your unwanted and unused
tech to give away and swap with others in the LUG.
=== Lightning Talks ===
(so far, more will be showing up over the next couple of days)
* Jim Doherty - TBD
* John Mort - Gnome Do
* Mike Kershaw - Lightzone
* Sean O\'Connor - EC2
* Sean Dague - Stellarium
The Lightning Talks are intended to run for 1 hour, which will then be
followed by an MHVLUG Swap Fest.
=== Rules of the Swap Fest ===
* The swap fest will run briefly prior to the meeting getting started,
and then after the lightning talks. During the lightning talks we ask
that people refrain from "shopping".
* People are encouraged to bring in things to give away, though if you
want to bring some items for sale or trade that\'s allowed.
* If you bring it, and no one takes it, you have to take it home with
you.
=== Punch & Pie ===
People are encouraged to bring snacks and drinks to share for the
meeting. Cups, Plates, Cutlery, and Napkins will be provided.
=== CD Give aways ===
There will also be new Ubuntu 8.10 CDs for the meeting, as well as MHVLUG
OpenCDs as a holiday give away.
The meeting will take place at the Mid Hudson Library System
Auditorium, in Poughkeepsie, NY, on Wednesday, December 3,
from 6pm - 8pm. A nice map to the Auditorium can be found here:
http://midhudson.org/help/mhls_building_map.htm.
All meetings are *free* and open to the public, and everyone from all
levels of expertise and interest in Linux and Open Source Software are
encouraged to attend (and bring a friend or two)! In addition, after
each meeting ends everyone is welcome to join in on an informal dinner
gathering at the Palace Diner (http://www.thepalacediner.com/) on
Washington St. This is a great opportunity to interact with members
of the local Linux community, and a forum where questions and comments
are strongly welcomed.
