Social Occassions, Linux News, Teh Funnies

[tcpip]

Most important recent social news was attending the wedding and reception of ser_pounce and hathhalla. It was a modest affair (they're modest people) with delightful readings from Plato's Symposium and ee cummings. The reception was but seriously good fun with some great discussions as the night wore on. Huzzah!

Last night was the monthly LUV meeting. Speakers were Tony Tay from Oak Technologies on Distributed Raid Block Devices and Greg Banks from SGI on making Network File System Suck Faster. Leader without Fear phoned me just before the meeting and asked me to take up the chairing role in addition to providing the regular Linux News. Some 75 people were in attendance, the largest number I have seen at LUV; recumbenteer joined us for a glass of wine afterwards; very good to see him. Coming soon is the Ballarat Installfest, Conference and Keysigning

Amusing dedication noted by anivar; Factual and continuity errors in "Hot and Horny Cheerleaders 5. NSW Nationals not really thinking straight with the headline: Labor Most Scrap Soft Policy on Drugs: Stoner.

Apologies from the Ballarat contingent for missing the LUV meeting, too many people just had too many things on in the end.

Looking forward to seeing you next weekend though!

That's fine; very impressed there was even consideration in attending the event.

Next weekend! w00t!
