Seattle Linux User’s Group Meets this Saturday

I’ve been working with a few other people to resurrect GSLUG, the Greater Seattle Linux User’s group.

The next meeting is this Saturday (September 1st, 2007) at 12:00pm, here’s the announcement that Ian sent out on the list:

  The September 2007, inaugural meeting of the Greater Seattle
  Linux Users Group (GSLUG) will be held on Saturday, September 1st,
  starting promptly at 12:00 PM on the North Seattle Community College
  campus.

  We are confirmed to use room IB 3319. (Yes, the same room we've
  had in the past)

  Parking is free on weekends.

  For directions and complete details, please visit the meeting's Wiki
  entry:

      (Links to: http://www.northseattle.edu/maps/ for directions)

  Please feel free to forward this announcement as appropriate.

  This will be the first meeting GSLUG has had in quite a while, and
  things have changed. The presentation format will be that of Lightning
  talks (Several talks from 5-10 minutes in length, with open Q&A
  afterwards) instead of the traditional hour or so long presentations.

Microsoft might be right on the other side of the water, but Linux and Free Software is alive in Seattle! If you’re reading this and in the Seattle area, I hope to see you there! (Also, I’m giving a talk!)
