[Cialug] Next Meeting Agenda

[Josh More]

If there is interest, I could talk about certifications again.
I just upped my Novell Linux cert and got a GIAC, so I can talk about
test taking techniques and the sorts of things the tests cover (no
specifics though).

I could also talk a bit about Inkscape as well, as I use it for my
(highly irregular) web comic.

I could whip up a short encryption presentation, since we recently had
that SSL discussion.

Anything out there people want me to talk about?

Hmm.  Show of hands --  who in the LUG has a tech blog?  I keep
meaning
to start one, but I generally end up spending my mental tech bandwidth
on things that get me paid.  (Though perhaps a good tech blog would be
a nice credibility- builder for consulting services...)

I definitely would like to see this!  If you're willing, that would be
great.

Hells yes.  I have been wanting to check Django out for a while.  As I
have previously indicated on the list, I'm a hardcore python sort of
guy.

I keep trying to get other people to talk, so maybe I need to stand up
and give a spiel myself.  I'll try to think of something interesting.
