Hi all,

Sorry that I didn't make it to the meeting.  I am currently out of town.  I
will be back on 25 Jan.  I'm hoping to make it to the 4 Feb meeting, though
I am scheduled to go out of town on the 5th. 

I know I wasn't very clear about the fact that I was going to be out of
town.  I appologize for this.  

What did I miss at the last regularly scheduled meeting (as opposed to the
sunday meeting)?  I get the impression that something happened to make Kara
feel that she would not be missed.  My impression from the past was that
Kara and Steve were invaluable members of our LUG.  I for one am extremely
grateful to have them at our meetings.  

On another note, I noticed at Red Hat's web site that they are looking for
college students to become Linux evangelists.  It looks like they will give
you 25 copies of their *latest* release to give out on a college campus.  I
was thinking that I might apply for this.  Would anyone be interested in a
demo day at a college somewhere?  Or, if not, would anyone who is taking
classes be interested in signining up for the program?


Randy

We held our first Linux Study Group this afternoon.  We had five folks 
participate.  We decided to meet every-other week on Sunday afternoon at

2:00pm.  Since neither of the folks who volunteered to lead the group 
were there, the group decided to press on by conducting the study in a 
student lead seminar fashion.
All the folks in the group are true newbies so be decided to begin by 
working our way through the book Linux for Dummies.  Once we're done
with 
that book we'll be moving into more "mature" materials.
If your are a true newbie wanting to learn the basics, or a Linux guru 
who would like to pass along your years of accumulated knowledge,  the 
next study session will be held on February 4th at 2:00pm in the SRA 
conference room.
Hope to see you there,
Larry
