Tonight's speakers are Roger Salisbury with "The good & bad of Red Hat RHCE certification" and Andrew Boag with "Database Scalability 101".
At this point we're not sure whether we'll be holding sluglets tonight due to renovations at Altassian. We're hoping we'll still be able to run sluglet tonight, but we can't guarantee it right now. Hope to see you there tonight.
