[brlug-newbies] Linux SIG Workshop - Monday December 17, 2007

[EdsLinuxBox]

Greetings all, 

Sorry for not getting this up sooner, but I have been extremely busy. In the 
next SIG workshop, I will demonstrate VirtualBox, a free virtualization 
software package that runs on Linux, Windows and Mac OS X. I will also 
demonstrate some of the neat things that one can do with Compiz_Fusion, the 
project that brings all of the "eye candy" to the Linux desktop. 

Also, I would like to get some feedback from the membership regarding our 
presentation that we will be making at the February general membership 
meeting. Finally, I would like to get some feedback as to what your vision 
for the future for the Linux Desktop SIG is. The SIG now has several voices 
on the club Board of Directors and the more that we know about what you want 
to SIG to be and to become, the better we can provide input to the board. 
Please give this some serious thought. 

If you have, or are putting together, a workshop, please let us know. We need 
to get some more workshops and facilitators going. With me now being on the 
Board of Directors and writing a monthly column for the newsletter, my 
discretionary time is getting less and less and I need all of the help that I 
can get. 

I look forward to seeing everyone Monday evening. 

Ed
