BALUG TOMORROW! Tu 2011-10-18 BALUG meeting; & other BALUG "news"

Bay Area Linux User Group (BALUG) meeting
Tuesday 6:30 P.M. 2011-10-18

Please RSVP if you're planning to come (see further below).

For our 2011-10-18 BALUG meeting, at least presently we don't have a
specific speaker/presentation lined up and confirmed for this meeting
(but watch for potentially late-breaking updates here[1], or on our
"announce" list:
http://lists.balug.org/listinfo.cgi/balug-announce-balug.org
) In any case, speaker/presentation or not, that doesn't prevent us
from having interesting and exciting meetings.  Sometimes we also
manage to secure/confirm a speaker too late for us to announce or fully
publicize the speaker (that's happened on at least a couple occasions).
Got questions, answers, and/or opinions? We typically have some
expert(s) and/or relative expert(s) present to cover LINUX and related
topic areas.  Want to hear some interesting discussions on LINUX and
other topics? Show up at the meeting, and feel free to bring an agenda
if you wish.  Want to help ensure BALUG has speakers/presentations
lined up for future meetings? Help refer speakers to us and/or
volunteer to be one of the speaker coordinators.  Good food, good
people, and interesting conversations to be had.

So, if you'd like to join us please RSVP to:

                       rsvp at balug.org

**Why RSVP??**

Well, don't worry we won't turn you away, but the RSVPs really help
BALUG and the Four Seas Restaurant plan the meal and meeting, and with
sufficient attendance, they also help ensure that we'll be able to eat
upstairs in the private banquet room.
