[web-team] Next month's meeting should be on the Web

[Tom Geller]

Sorry I couldn't be there last night -- I had an appointment that ran 
over. Hope that didn't cause any problems. :(

I thought I'd notified the Web team with info about the October 
meeting, but don't see the it on the site. It follows.

Best,

--Tom

   * OpenOffice.org: a technical pitch (Rationale, History,

MORE ABOUT THE SPEAKER:
   Max Lanfranconi is Senior Product Manager for Openoffice.org
   at Sun Microsystems, responsible for providing technical
   expertise to the Sun and  CollabNet teams as well as the
   OpenOffice.org community in building the Open Source office
   suite.
     Lanfranconi has held several positions at Sun since joining

   Product Marketing Manager in Italy.
     Before joining Sun, Lanfranconi has been for 10 years with
   Banca Popolare di Bergamo, where he was involved in several
   R&D projects inside the IT department of the bank.

WHERE:
   Cisco Building 9.
   The land of NUMBERS. The VINEYARDS conference center.
   The side we are on is the Silver Oak/Jordan conference rooms,
   where a large Cisco fountain is usually not turned on.
     Directions on how to get there are listed at:
   http://www.svlug.org/directions/cisco-9.shtml
     We've tried our very best for these directions to be accurate.
   If you have any improvements to make, please let our Web Team
   know! web-team at svlug.org

NOTES:
   It's best if you arrive close to on time, as otherwise
   there may not be someone posted at the door to let you in.
     After the speakers end their presentation there is usually
   a Q&A session, time for job seekers and employers to meet,
   and often a few door prizes.
     When the meeting is over people are encouraged to chat a bit,
   but also to exit the building so Cisco can lock up.  Don't
   worry, a lot of us go to dinner afterward so there's plenty
   of time to chat outdoors or offsite.

We look forward to seeing you there!
