Re: ABLEconf mtg tonight at 20:00
Whoops. Didn't reply-all on that last one. Weird. @ is something I'd expect to see on a username to designate operator privileges. I've checked out the webchat.freenode.net and it's working OK as far as I can tell... I've attached a screenshot (not attaching it to this message to avoid junking up the list) of what my screen looks like before I hit Connect and it's connected me successfully using the webchat client.

We are looking at a Saturday in Oktober for the conference this year. The Arizona Business and Liberty Experience ( ABLE conf ) is a business-oriented Free Software conference organized by a coalition of many Arizona Free Software groups. In order to put on the conference we need volunteers. Our greatest need right now is help in getting the word out such that we can get participation from more groups and hopefully also pick up more volunteers. ABLEconf will be in Tempe, but it's a state-wide effort. We specifically want participation from all parts of Arizona. We need volunteers to help with promo dispersion. Essentially you would review promo posts from ABLEconf and pass them on if you feel they are appropriate for the group or media outlet you're interfacing. Mailing lists, newspapers, blogs and social networking services are examples of possible groups we want to notify. We will usually have recommendations as to which types of outlets should get the message, but it is up to the individual monitoring a group to decide whether or not to post the notice. It is possible for multiple people to monitor a particular outlet. They will need to then work together. It's also possible for one person to monitor multiple outlets :). As an example, I feel this post is appropriate for PLUG and LOPSA-US-AZ, which I'm currently interfacing, so I will forward it to both of those groups, but whoever would be interfacing TFUG would look at it and decide if it's appropriate for TFUG. http://www.ABLEconf.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page#Open_Positions Join our discuss mailing list if you'd like to participate. Please also join us for our weekly IRC meetings every Sunday night in #ABLEconf on Freenode at 20:00. http://www.ABLEconf.com/participate http://lists.ABLEconf.com/listinfo.cgi/discuss-ableconf.com Sunday, July 05 will likely be a small meeting due to the holiday, but please join us on the 12th and help us put on ABLEconf!

Re: first ABLEconf mtg tonight
Freenode's a IRC network... do you have an IRC client? If not, firefox has an addon one called ChatZilla that works well enough. There's also xchat and a few others. I've been on IRC nearly every day for the last 6 or 7 years... Basically, you want to install and run an IRC client, then once you've got it running, there'll be a text entry box somewhere, usually at the bottom of the screen. type in /server irc.freenode.net and then hit Enter... wait a bit, it should tell you you're online, then type /join #ableconf and hit Enter again, and it should pop you into the channel for the meeting. If you don't want to install one, this should work well: http://www.mibbit.com/ Mibbit is ajax-based.

Alan --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss I enjoyed it. I overslept Saturday morning and didn't get there until after the first round of presentations started. I sat in on Darrin's presentation on Open Hardware Specs. I had just had to deal with this issue at work recently when someone had a system using a promise raid controller in a system in the lab. They wanted to upgrade to a new update of RHEL, but the driver from promise would hang the system whenever you tried to write to the device it presented. He was using raid5 so using the kernel driver for the promise wouldn't solve the problem. Next up I listened to Darrin's talk about OpenBSD and pf. Quite a packed room for this one. Dicussion arose about how to get started with OpenBSD and whether generated pf confs from website forms are good. Then I wanted to listen to the presentation on Inkscape, which is a vector graphics program. The LAN party presentation ran about 40 minutes over it's time slot. That coupled with some issues getting a laptop and projector to talk to each other got the Inkscape presentation started late. It was a nice demo of the latest features in the dev build (0.47). Anyone interested in vector graphics should check out the program. After Inkscape I listened to Darrin's presentation about the LRO project and their use of free software @ ASU. They are going to be dealing with ~100TB of data a year, and some extremely large high-resolution (1px / 0.5m) images. The conf ended with a wrap-up session in the auditorium where the different free software groups were presented. A lot of people trekked over to Boulder's on Broadway for food and drink afterwards. In between sessions there was a raffle drawing with t-shirts, media players, a hat, and perhaps a penguin being given as prizes. The Ubuntu loco team, PLUG, LOPSA, and perhaps one other group had tables set up with goodies for people to take. UAT was pretty nice. I've never made it over there for an installfest. I was surprised to learn they have a dormitory out in back. --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
