Agenda:

Note: The Taclug meeting and the Taclug tech-sessions 
are in the same location this month. 

Look for the only large red brick office building in the area of I-5 and
the Port of Tacoma exit. When you are at the site, just follow the signs
to the David Evans & Associates Suite on the 3rd floor. Also, the Taclug
website (www.taclug.org) has a map. Just click on the "clicking here"
link. Wow, aren't we original!    ;)

AGENDA

12:30 High Noon, Coffee is on!        
1:00 - 1:45 Introductions
1:45 - 2:45 Q & A Session
2:45 - 3:00 Break
3:00 - 3:45 Linux World Expo Rundown
3:45 - 5:30 Install Fest

The Introductions is intended to be more than just a name thing. We
conduct introductions just about every Taclug meeting, and us old timers
never do it the same each time. Here you can briefly state your
background in Linux, list your latest projects and interests, moan about
the problem that is filling your lunch pail, and plead for help if
desired. Up to 5 minutes time is appropriate, with some interactive
batter back and forth as the situation arises.

The Q & A will be a moderated discussion. We find that these discussions
often divert and twist into interesting new channels that no one could
have planned. Here we will have all levels of Linux expertise from
beginner, thru intermediate, and to guru level Linux users. We hope to
attract new entry level Linux users, or even some individuals that are
just interested to find out about Linux. You'll please, come! This is
your opportunity to ask any burning questions about Linux. No question
will be perceived as too basic. Our experience from past Q & A sessions
is all levels of Linux users learn a lot from these discussions, but in
different ways. Guru's may enlighten each other with new approaches to
solving a problem. To the Linux beginner, this same discussion may
trigger one to see the potential of using Linux.

The meeting will close, and then we will have a short break. The Boot
Fest will follow. We will have four areas available to install Linux onto
anybody's computer. Intermediate and above Taclug users will be available
to help anyone that wants to install Linux onto their computer. Bring
your computers and any Linux distribution you want to install. Or just
bring your computers. We will have copies of several leading Linux
distributions for your use. And here is an interesting caveat with Linux.
THIS IS ALL LEGAL! Hopefully, this will light some mental light bulbs!?

Hope to see you at the upcoming August Taclug meeting.


Your Meeting Facilitator,

Wes Jennings
