As has become customary, attendance is rather low at the meetings. If anyone has an idea as to how to increase the attendance, it would be a good thing.

Is there a special topic someone would like to see? Perhaps a training night on some obscure topic - or even a common one. A bring your favorite hack and talk about it….

The list can be endless, so if someone has something they would like to talk about, find out about, or even teach, here’s a chance.
Remember, this is supposed to be about the profession of System

Sorry
about the Dates confusing with the Symposium conflict, I was looking at my
Outlook from Thursday meetings in which the 15th was the 3rd thursday of the
month and just went back a day.
As
Scott had helped me with, indeed I will be able to go to the May 21st
meeting.

Welcome to the new (finally) website. I know it’s a bit minimalistic right now, but I wanted to get something new up and running so that there would appear to be progress.

We need a list of topics, and some moderators for these topics. I suspect that some topics would include:

gereral Unix administration
windows administration
specific unices
embedded OS
security admin
etc.

Any additions/changes/enhancements are welcome.
I also want to get some information posted on here. FAQs, HOWTOs, Links, Tips & Tricks, etc. It would be nice if this could get built out into a well organized community resource, but that’s probably a pipe dream (at least right now).
Show up for a meeting, meet the people, socialize, volunteer.

Hi Dave,

It’s great to hear from you. Maybe we can get together for some wings? Just to clear up the confusion that post sent, Hooters is not a former Nortel building (although it did have the nickname Fitz 4). The building behind Hooters is :) I used to work in the larger former Nortel building just
across the street.

I would like to address the concern regarding a conflict with the 15th
Annual Canadian IT Security Symposium at the Congress Centre. That is the
second Wednesday of May, so the third Wednesday is still good.
