[LUAU] Open Source Pizza Tonight - 3D Blending
Once a month, on the third Tuesday, we hold a free seminar/talk/presentation that covers some form of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS). Tonight is no different as we welcome Emil Reyes and his discussion of Blender. Join Emil Reyes of RAPID Technology for a discussion on free 3D modeling/animation software that can be used for everything from education to business and entertainment. Learn about free software that is powerful enough to make professional quality animated movies, design machinable parts and even make your own video games. Emil will speak about different open source applications and how their use is growing. Emil will also focus on his favorite open source software, Blender 3D, demonstrate its use and talk about its potential in Hawaii.

[LUAU] Open Source Pizza Tonight
If you truly care about the future of Hawai`i, you may want to ask yourself, 'Is the technology engine in our Public Schools well engineered, or is it in need of an overhaul?' Do you know what it is like to be on the front line of tech support and implementation in today's schools? Join us for a discussion with Tech Coordinators responsible for the most difficult of teaching tasks - integrating technology with curricula.

[LUAU] OPEN SOURCE PIZZA - TONIGHT
"Peak Oil, FOSS, Hawaii & You" A discussion of how Free and Open Source Software will foster innovation and economic growth, maybe even competitive advantages, in the face of rising fuel prices. About the Speaker Jim Thompson has been noodling around the UNIX world for far too long a time. He knows he started with BSD Unix Release 4.1a on a Vax 11/780 in 1980. He still thinks "echo 'This is not a pipe." | cat - > /dev/tty' is funny. He submitted his first patch to a Free Software project in 1985 for a port of GNU Emacs to a Convex vector supercomputer. Jim refuses to divulge his qualifications and may, in fact, have none at all. He lives in a fortified condo near Kailua with his wife Jamie and son, Hunter Speed. His email address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] Officially: Jim Thompson was Director of Product Development at Vivato. Prior to joining Vivato, Jim Thompson founded and served as the chief technology officer at Musenki, a developer of secure, open-source wireless networking products targeted at original equipment manufacturers, wireless Internet service providers, and public access (hot spot) providers. Prior to that, Mr. Thompson was the chief technology officer and vice president of engineering at Wayport, where he designed and built Everywire, a series of products created to bring Internet access into public spaces. Prior to leaving Wayport, Jim architected and championed Wayport's move to a 100 percent wireless network. Jim Thompson was also founder and chief technology officer of Smallworks, an Internet security technology supplier to Cisco, Sterling Commerce (acquired by Computer Associates), Quadritek (acquired by Lucent), Competitive Automation (acquired by @Home), Wells Fargo, Cadence and Monsanto; Director of Engineering for Tadpole Technology; and Network Operations Center Manager for Sun Microsystems.

[LUAU] Open Source Pizza Tonight
A reminder that from 5:45 to 8:30 we'll be having our inaugural Open Source Pizza tonight at the Marine Sciences Auditorium at The University of Hawaii. For directions, go to http://www.hawaii.edu/campusmap/ and click on Marine Science [E4] Novell will be our first guests, and Jim Thompson will preview next month's Open Source Pizza topic. Please join us if you can. It will be fun. --scott Topic for September 20, 2005 5:45 - 8:30 Novell is moving full force into the world of Open Source Software (OSS). With partners like IBM, HP, Dell, Oracle, Intel, and many others Novell is quickly making headway into this new market place. While being a standards based company in its own right Novell continues that effort and assures its customers and partners that it intends to deliver standards based solutions that interoperate with existing and new technologies. Join us to find out about Novell's internal migration to Linux and to hear some intriguing case studies. About the speakers: Brian Six finished high school with a focus in computers and computer networking architecture. After college with a CS in Computer Science he began working with a software company as a programmer. During his time at the software company he moved from programmer/developer to designer. After 4.5 yrs Brian left the software design field to begin working at a systems integrator performing network designs and installations. During his 4 yrs there he was promoted to senior networking engineer over LAN and desktop environments. Since then Brian has worked at Novell for 9 yrs as a Senior Systems Engineer delivering presentations and solutions evaluations to customers, partners, and marketing events. In college John Neilson initially studied to become a computer science major where he learned Fortran, Pascal and Basic programming. During his course of study he recognized his real interest was in business and how computers could benefit companies. John graduated with a Bachelor degree in Business with an emphasis in Sales Management. For the past fifteen years John has sold technology as a VAR, Distributor, and end-users sales representative. John has been directly or indirectly involved in selling enterprise solutions which include HP-UX, DEC, AIX, EMC, Oracle, E-Commerce, LINUX, Resource Management and Identity Driven solutions. John has been with Novell for the past 2½ years where he works with Novell business partners to sell to his 3000 accounts in the Los Angeles, Orange County and Hawaiian Islands territory. This November, John will complete his MBA in Technology Management from the University of Phoenix.
