COLUG is proud of its sustained tradition of providing
intermediate to advanced level
presentations on a wide range of Free and Open Source Software topics.
The COLUG meeting format is such that this is done with (hopefully)
enough interaction and Q and A between
the presenter and the audience, that no-one is left too far behind.
Not all consecutive months are represented, as we do not have presentations
every month (think, install fests in the early days).
These links should be largely self explanatory and in YYMM form
(where YY == Year, and MM == Month) links, with a suffix 'mtg' (meeting)
to give the time frame for that presentation content. Obviously
things change over time, and a carfeful reader will consider if
the content may have been superceded.
For example, who is still
using a Linux 2.0 kernel and having trouble getting sound working
[one of the topics at the March 1999 meeting]?
... Oh, sound is still an issue? See, some things do not change. ;)
