This months meeting will be held at The Reef in the Mission district of San Francisco. The meeting will start at 7:30 pm. Agenda: ==> John Plevyak, chief scientist in charge of the FreeBSD project at Inktomi (www.inktomi.com), will be our special guest. John has agreed to speak on Inktomi's web caching software and their port to FreeBSD. ==> James Buszard-Welcher, a long time friend of BAFUG and sponsor of our meetings at The Reef, has accepted a position at a start-up in Berkeley. We wish him well. Unfortunely this leaves BAFUG without a sponsor at The Reef. The upshot of this means that the May meeting will be our last at this venerable site. The search is on to find BAFUG a new home in San Francisco. Anyone wishing to help in the search can contact either Josef Grosch (jgrosch@mooseriver.com) or Crystalle Cota (cary25@hotmail.com) for further info. ==> Josef Grosch will talk about BAFUGs plans for the upcoming Install-A-Thon to be held on May 8th at the Robert Austin Computer show at the Cow Place in Daly City. This Install-A-Thon will be held jointly with BALUG (Bay Area Linux Users Group) and CABAL (Consortium of All Bay Area Linux). We will also have an Install-A-Thon at the Oakland Convention Center on May 15th. See http://www.bafug.org/Install.html for more details including directions on how to get to the Cow Palace. ==> Due to a schedule conflict with the Usenix Technical Conference in Monterey, there will not be a June BAFUG meeting in San Francisco.
