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: ==> Bob Bruce, Owner of Walnut Creek CDROM, will give a talk on the relationship between Walnut Creek and FreeBSD. Walnut Creek CDROM has been our biggest booster over the years. Aside from pressing all our CDs since Rel. 1.0 and paying for all the computer and network infrastructure we use, they have under written a large part of the cost of development of FreeBSD including paying several key developers salary. He will share his vision of the future of FreeBSD and Walnut Creek. ==> Josef Grosch will talk about BAFUGs plans for the upcoming Install-A-Thon to be held on April 10th at the Robert Austin Computer show at the Oakland Convention Center. 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 be holding our traditional Install-A-Thon at the Cow Place in Daly City. The date for this show is April 24th.
