Hangar 18 Weekly Social
Asymmetric Clustering... Distributed Name Space... Global Sign-on... Guerrilla Networking... Open Source Technology... Do these words make your heart beat faster and your breath go shallow? If so then perhaps you should become involved with Hangar 18. We are a tit-for-tat group of computer hobbyist of a wide range of skills intent on building the next computing infra-structure using Open Source technology. We don't focus on any one form of technology but instead focus on real world applications in grid or large scale distributed computing. Time:Aug. 28, 2003 Every Thursday, excluding national holidays 8:00 - 9:00 pm (or later) http://open-forge.org Location:The Robot Group http://robotgroup.net Please contact the Robot Group for directions if you don't know how to get their, per their request. The location varies from week to week so be sure to check with an active Hangar 18 member (or join the mailing list!) for more information. Identification: We'll be the group with the Plan 9 OS box on the table...;)

FYI: Hangar 18 Weekly Social, Austin Cpunks Monthy Meet, & PotentialDowntime...
Howdy, Just a quick note that the weekly Hangar 18 meeting will -not- be held at Buffet Palace this week. Instead we'll be meeting at a members home to work on the Open Air Optical Network Project. If you're interested in attending then please contact myself, Bob, or Robert. I'll bring my project, hand tools, a soldering iron, and some Tsing Tao... The Austin Cypherpunks will be having their regular monthly meeting Tue. at the HEB Central Market Cafe at N. Lamar & 38th. Look for the red covered "Applied Cryptography". Nothing in particular on the agenda other than Guadalupe Catfish ;) Also, the city utilities has notified the upstream T1 site that there will be a power main switch sometime in the next week and a half or so. Don't know what changed, usually they just do it. The UPS was tested earlier this week as a result and all looks good. So, assuming nothing happens at the T1 site itself we should be able to weather the main switch with no interruption of services. But the best laid plans of mice and men... And speaking of the upstream T1, we've added some new switch boxes and extra power to the racks and can take four (4) Plan 9 boxes. We intend to add one, Bob will be adding one (if I understood his intent), and that leave two (2) open slots. In particular we're looking for process servers. This means fast CPU & lots of RAM, with a medium size HD. I -think- Robert will be adding at least one box but he'll be taking care of the physical hosting himself (using the Hangar 18 Auth server for access I assume). Finally, we're looking into having two (2) BYOB's (Build Your Own Box) in the coming months. One in December before Christmas and another sometime late January. These will be standard Hangar 18 BYOB's so they will -not- be limited to any particular OS. I'll be setting up saucer.ssz.com as a Plan 9 auth server. This means we'll be ready to start adding other sites in late Dec. This also means that those who have been waiting on machines to come available for access should have resources to use in January.
