The Ogden Area Linux Users Group

The OALUG Steering Committe had a good meeting today in #oalug on Freenode. We got a lot planned for the upcoming meetings. If you’re interested, the meeting log can be found here.

Basically, we have tentatively scheduled the following:

• Meet and Greet meeting on Sept 12th. This will mainly be a get to know you and your OALUG group. We will go over introductions, the mailing list, the IRC channel, and a number of other things related to the group. This meeting will probably be about an hour or less.
• Linux Comparison Smackdown on Sept 30th. During this meeting, we will compare a number of different distributions incluing Ubuntu, OpenSuSE, Damn Small Linux and others. We’ll cover highlights and advantages/disadvantages of each.
• Linux Install Fest on Oct 10th. If you need help seeting up a workstation, mail server, web server, desktop, laptop or anything else, this will be the time to get it taken care of. We will have plenty of CDs on hand, and we will have a wide range of distros from which to pick.

That is so far the swing of things. We have discussed other things, and greater detail will be found on the mailing list. Don’t forget to subscribe if you haven’t already.
