We held a fairly informal meeting on Sunday. There were about 8 people there
at one point. The discussion wandered around the topic of where information
can be found. Since only one other machine was brought in, we really didn't
set up a network.
One question that I was asked was: "What books are good to read to learn
Linux/Unix?". I responded with "The design of the Unix Operating System" but I
misidentified the author. It's actually Maurice J. Bach. Today, I did a bit
of poking around and found a nice writeup on the "Path to Enlightenment". It's
written whimsically but there's some very valid information there. Check out:
http://www.rootprompt.org/article.php3?article=2377 It's a really good
article.
We also talked a bit about what we can do at the next meeting. Someone
mentioned "LAN party" and we got lots of nodding heads and smiles. Looks like
that might be a good idea. How do folks feel about bringing their machines in,
hooking up to a hub and starting a "fragfest"? I think it would be a blast
(literally?).
Cheers!
