                       Bay Area FreeBSD Users Group
                                -- BAFUG --


The Bay Area FreeBSD Users Group (BAFUG) will be holding it's monthly
meeting on Thursday, February 11th. This months meeting will be held at The 
Silicon Reef in the Mission district of San Francisco. The meeting will
start at 7:30 pm.


Agenda:
    ==> Jordan K. Hubbard will be giving a post-"State of the Union"
        talk. This talk will most likely include a discussion of the
        release of 3.0, the move to ELF, the start of the 3.X branch, and
        the possible inclusion of IPv6 into 3.1. Of course we will have our 
        famous "Ask Jordan" session.

    ==> Nicole Harrington and Josef Grosch will talk about their plans for
        the upcoming Install-A-Thon to be held on February 20th at the
        Robert Austin Computer show at the Oakland Convention Center. We will
        also be holding our traditional Install-A-Thon at the Cow Place in
        Daly City. The date for this show is February 27th. This
        Install-A-Thon will be held jointly with BALUG (Bay Area Linux
        Users Group) and CABAL (Consortium of All Bay Area Linux). See  

            http://www.bafug.org/Install.html

        for more details including directions on how to get to the Cow
        Palace. 
 
    ==> Additional speaker and/or topics are yet to be determined. 

    ==> bafug.org is off and running! Thanks to Jan Koum and Nicole
        Harrington. The FreeBSD Retail page and Counter page have been
        moved to this site. Suggestions are welcome.

        machine for use at the Install-a-thons.
