Looks like it was a short code issue after an update that messed things up. Revisiting the posts and correcting the codes seems to have fixed everything. RSS feeds are still working, so I think we are all good.

Welcome to September…

A couple of items for the group first:

• LISA'13 will be in Washington D.C. from Nov 03-08, 2013
• We are now a full Local for LOPSA and the only one outside the U.S. at this time.
• I’m thinking of re-branding the site a little to show the affiliation and to remove the old SAGE branding as that is now ancient history. I will probably keep the ovsage name, but might add a second domain to redirect here
• We were formed in November of 1998, so this November is our 15th year in operation. Maybe I can keep it running another 15 years :)
• The annual social will be at the Mill St. Brew Pub again. I have asked for a better seating arrangement for this year. High bar stools at a small table are not quite what this time around. This is tentatively scheduled for Dec 19, 2013
• Site photo galleries all fixed up as well as working RSS feed again

Items/Talking Points for the September Meeting:

Well, they are disabled at the moment due to a problem with the RSS feed. After having it brought to my attention a few days ago, I finally had a chance to have a look and it seems that the combination of plugins I have all work except the nextgen gallery, so I’ll be messing around with gallery plugins for a little bit and update the posts when I get it fixed. Lucking there are only a small number that reference galleries.

We did not manage to get through all of the items I wanted to discuss, however I did manage to hit all of the bullet points that were posted for the meeting. That leaves me with a few topics for the next meeting, so all is good.

Asciidoctor: A Ruby tool for Documentation

I have mentioned AsciiDoc numerous times in the past and I still think it has great utility. I’m trying to keep documentation in that format, as it can be read as simple text as well as used to generate very nicely formatted output in formats suitable for printing, web pages, etc. It seems that this was also noted by some people in the Ruby arena and they created Asciidoctor. From the official website, we get the following description:

The August meeting came around a little earlier than expected with the third Thursday being on the 15th. We have a few topics for discussion, including:

• A tool for Ruby documentation
• A couple of pictures from SysAdmin Day
• Data logging with a RPi
• Charting services for web enabled devices. The internet of things is being tracked
• A couple of comments on the OCLUG meeting on SUSEstudio and BTRFS
• The usual open call for more topics

For anyone interested, the full LISA'13 registration will be opening next month, so if you are going, you might want to sign up early. The current list of training is available as a PDF download from the usenix site.
