Sounds like the group needs an Exchange (hiss) server with Ximan Evolution to coordinate schedules. Works for me at work well. ;-) Good luck with things this year guys. -- -- Benjamin Story () Join the ASCII ribbon campaign against HTML email and Microsoft-specific /\ attachments.

[tslug] Re: meeting time (fwd) & Presnetation Ideas
I wouldn't have any trouble moving it back, but I don't have a lot of other activities that would cause a conflict at other days/times anyway. Does anyone have ideas for topics or discussions? I've been doing a fair amount of working/reading about the following topics, and would be willing to put together some type of prensentation if there is interest in them. 1.) Desktop Linux for inexperienced computer users 2.) Linux Advocacy 3.) Browser Comparison 4.) Useful applications that are available for Linux and not Windows, SpamAssassin for example. 5.) Setting up gcc-3.1.X to support Ada. (It is included in the gcc-3.1.X tarball but not enabled by default). 6.) Available database applications, and the four forms of normalization. Also what kind of recruitment/promotion do we want to do? Unless someone else wants to; I can create some example example flyers, tag lines for chalking etc to send to the list for comment. --Brandon On Wed, 28 Aug 2002, Nathaniel Green wrote: > Everyone, > > It seems to me that a 7pm meeting time on Thursday evenings may cause > inconveniences, if not true conflicts.

Sounds good to me, when should we make the voting period?

Nomination accepted. Get your commitments/possible free times in by Friday at midnight. I'll get something together for your voting pleasure by the end of Saturday and we can vote Sunday/Monday and hopefully meet next week. Nate
[tslug] Re: First Meeting Times
Whenever works well for everyone else. I am going to be trying to work on the web site this weekend, so that we can advertise it more. From what limited conversation I have had with Don, I think we are leaning toward a more static web site, with the dynamic content directed more at the mailing list. How does this sound to everyone? Let me know if you have any ideas, or talent designing web sites. I am not a graphic designer, I am a programmer. The site will probably not be the prettiest, however I will strive to make it informational.

We need to decide on a day/time for our first meeting. Thursdays have worked well in the past, usually around 7pm, right? So the question is whether we meet this Thursday or next Thursday (the 5th of September). Personally, I'm leaning towards the latter, but if there is pressing business we meet earlier. What do you guys think? --Nate PS - Please forgive me for cluttering your email with that 'join' email from natorius.

[tslug] meeting time
Everyone, It seems to me that a 7pm meeting time on Thursday evenings may cause inconveniences, if not true conflicts. Would it help more than hurt to move it back a half, or even a whole hour? A later time would be fine by me, but mine is only one voice. What would be the most convenient for you? Nate
[tslug] meeting time; also: Research Opportunity
Nathaniel and tsluggers, Thanks for the information about possible day and time for tslug meetings. I'm certainly interested, though I have a meeting already scheduled for Thursdays around 7 that would usually take priority because my role in that group (the outdoor club) is as an advisor rather than simply an interested member. In any case, I appreciate being on the tslug list, and I look forward to opportunities to increase my conversance with Linux. Please do inform me of the meeting time you choose! On a related issue, I'm looking for one or two good programmers to join my research group, either for scholarship hours, as interested volunteers for the educational opportunity, or even possibly for some institutional pay. My undergraduate research students and I are working with epidemiological modelling, and will soon reach the point where custom-written programs in a high-level language will be helpful. C++, Ada, or even Pascal would do fine. Experience with Linux would be a plus, as I favor the GNU GPL philosophy over that of Microsoft and would prefer to develop the code in the Linux environment. The main requirements for a good match would be good programming skills, willingness to document and explain code, and an interest in helping other group members get up to speed. Initial knowledge of the models themselves would not be required or expected--as mentor I would provide the requisite insights. I find the students who are already on the research team a pleasure to work with, and there is opportunity to make a genuine contribution and program some seriously cool stochastic models. Inquiries would be welcome! Sincerely, Kenneth Carter
