MEETING NOTICE
==============

  Central Ohio Linux Users Group

            Wednesday, May 31th., 1900 to 2100 local

Meeting Presentation
====================
             
The main presentation - Several quickies:

	Richard Threadgill of Turbo Linux will be present, and present 
of the benefits of the distribution.  The cluster, and Asian character 
set support are interesting aspects of the product in which members 
of the group have expressed an interest;

	Jim Wildman has  offered to demonstrate VMWare and Wine;

	A tricked out multi-media X setup will be demonstrated by a 
list member, whose name I cannot immediately lay hands on.  The 
underlying request sought: "A tweaked out amped up desktop/mulimedia 
linux demo. I am sure someone on the list edits audio, knows about 
the cool games, etc., etc.," and

	We've had a request for DNS setup.  Absent a volunteer, Phil H
will use the 'h2n' tool and some shell scripting to set up a simple 
set of DNS files for local nameservice provision behind a residential
firewall.  Please review the DNS HOW-TO -- see, e.g.:
	http://www.ssc.com/mirrors/LDP/HOWTO/DNS-HOWTO.html

        As always (both with the informal nature of the group's
`management' and the vaguries of the presenters' schedules), 
the agenda and content are subject to change.

	Additionally, the _formal_ meeting ends at the stated time.  
We've noticed that folks continue to stand around in the parking lot 
for _hours_.  We'll probably adjourn to a local watering hole, 
to slake thirst and sit down.


MEETING SITE:
=============
This month's meeting will be held at:

	TEAM America  (http://www.teamamerica.com)
	110 East Wilson Bridge Road
	Worthington, OH 43085
	(614) 848-3995

	The building is at US23 North and 270 off of
	East Wilson Bridge Road just around the first
	curve.

Parking is FREE ! 

... The group has met on the LAST Wednesday or LAST Saturday 
of a month, alternating by month to allow more folks to mesh 
their schedules with COLUG's.  Sites and dates also depend 
on facility availabity, with common-sense relocation in the 
holiday season.

The webpage always has a link to a map to the upcoming meeting 
site. See: http://stones.wcbe.org/~COLUG/meetings.php3


Meeting Schedule
================

          The NEXT meeting is scheduled on Saturday, June 24, 
2000 from 13:00 to 15:00 local -- Location is up in the air -- 
we've pretty well outgrown the kindly donated TeamAmerica site, 
although we continue to 'shoe-horn' in until a suitable 
replacement is found.
