[Cialug] Meeting this week

[Josh More]

Seriously, this topic cycles around in every group I'm in.

To put it extremely bluntly, this is never going to happen unless someone steps forward with an entire solution package and the willingness to run it.  From a resource perspective, we have:

1) A speaker phone.
2) A projector.
3) A whiteboard.
4) Reliable Internet access.

That's what you have to work with.  If someone comes to me with a solid solution that doesn't take much care and feeding and is free, we'll record and/or broadcast the meeting.  Otherwise, it's just not going to occur.

Bummer – I was looking forward to hearing/seeing the virtualization presentation.

Semi-OT (sorry):
Dismissing legalities, this could be a cool feature for the group; record the meetings and make them available for streaming/download. (youtube, and/or me—I would donate some hosting if the idea is acceptable) Additionally, if I ever get time to actually ATTEND the meetings, I have a camcorder that could be used.</self_nomination>

No, no one did, sorry.

When talking it over with Theron, since we were discussing the internal configuration of some pretty major infrastructure for a business, we weren't comfortable recording it without permission from the company.

However, I'm sure that Theron would be glad to tell the story again over a beer or nine.  :)

Sorry,

Everyone else,

Anyone want to record Theron and have a decent way to do so?

 As a reminder, we are having the first Linux Users Group meeting of 2011 this Wednesday.  The place is the same as usual, from 7 to 9, at Alliance Technologies... however, we may have a pre-meeting to visit Matt at the nearby Mercy hospital, if he's still there.  More on this as the day approaches.

The de-factor topic of our meeting is office on Linux, so we can talk about OpenOffice vs LibreOffice.... but only after a PRESENTATION.  That's right folks, we actually have a presentation this month.  Our long and randomly-absent friend Theron is going to show up and tell us about the cool stuff he's been doing with building a new virtualization offering for his employer.

Once that's done, and everyone has finished teasing Theron about his recent absences, we can talk about office, the Novell buyout and what it means for SUSE, and why 2011 will still not be the year of the Linux desktop.

Hope to see many of you there.
