Greater Lansing Linux User Group

The Greater Lansing Linux User's Group is presenting a series of public seminars for community members interested in building and running a Linux based Internet Server. All seminars are held at the downtown branch of the Capital Area District Library, in the third floor conference room.

The library is at 401 South Capitol Avenue in Lansing, Michigan.

I've got the urge to brew some beer this weekend, weather permitting. I'll be making a light summer ale, close to a heffewiezen, from ingredients I have around. I'm currently needing to procure yeast and hops, but that is easily done.

If anybody wants to be part of it, call me at 810-869-4390 to let me know. I'll probably start brewing by 10am, and it typically lasts until 5 or 6 pm.

Gone Wired Cafe, Michigan Avenue in Lansing. Informal meeting starts at 1 and finished whenever.

We're going to grill some dead animals at Jeff's compound. It's a pot-luck affair, so you should post to the list for what you're interested in bringing. Jeff is picking up the dead animals, and monetary contributions wouldn't be amiss. Event happens rain or shine: there's plenty of covered seating.

Below the line is the archive of the PCon 6.0 computer room article. I moved it to an 'archive' so I could 'take over' the link off the home page for the 'current' one. :)

This is the layout and notes for the computer room for 2008 at Penguicon. It is a work in progress and intended to be a group-maintained effort. :) (in other words, don't be afraid to change, edit, add, correct, or answer a question if possible).

This is our beer, fermenting merrily away in my basement. The dunkelweizen is the nasty looking mess in the glass carbouy. While it looks ugly, I assure you that all beer looks really ugly at this stage, and it will taste just wonderful. We all sampled the extract on the day of, and it was very sweet with a rich malty taste.

Today was brewing day, pretty much our last chance to brew beer before Penguicon. Jeff, Marshal, Ariel and Stan converged upon my house this morning at 10am. The plan for the day was to brew a Dunkel Weizen (a dark wheat beer) and a Stout kit that Jeff picked up from Things Beer.

So, things have been slow around here lately, here being the web and the mailing list. I'm not too sure if the meetings have been slow, I haven't been to one since the move to the Library. Working in Novi does tend to keep one distanced from doing things at 6pm in Lansing.

I could, I suppose, join something around here (8pm on Tuesday and I'm still at work)...but, nah, I prefer you guys, and Penguicon and such. Hrm, what CAN I do.

I know, I'll expand on my duties! :)

I'm having trouble with the mailing list, so I'm raising the alarm bells here. Per the ConCom (and Jer in particular) there is no Brazilian Beef planned for this year. Nobody wanted to step up to run it, and honestly I can't see that any real effort was made to recruit somebody. Consequently it was cut from the budget.
