 Holiday Meeting: Your Tips as Presents

 6:45 pm, Suspenders Restaurant

 December`s meeting will be an opportunity for an array of people to 
 illustrate their Unix hacks.

 In August, Dru Lavigne started a thread 
 (http://lists.nycbug.org/pipermail/talk/2009-August/012665.html) on 
 NYCBUG`s talk about "fave BSD tips/tricks?" that brought out some good 
 discussion. We see this meeting as a follow-up, and an opportunity to 
 give your hacks "back to the community" as a holiday gift.

 Please submit your one page PDF to admin@, with one, two, or even three 
 simple tips. It might be simple and seemingly stupid, but it could save 
 a few minutes a day for another developer or sysadmin in the meeting.

 It could be a creatively piped set of commands, or a simple script that 
 you run through periodic to prevent headaches. The field is wide open.

 We will schedule a handful of ten minute or so speakers, and let the 
 crowd take it from there.

 The BSD Certification Group's Jobs Task Analysis survey is open until 
 midnight tonight.

 We strongly recommend you assist the survey, as it will help shape the 
 next BSD Certification exam and provide some very useful raw data to the 
 community.

 USENIX has posted a number of their upcoming events for 2010 in our 
 "Events & Cons" section on NYCBUG.org.  We strongly recommend that you 
 look at the listing and continue to support USENIX, who are not only a 
 vital part of the Unix community, but also have generously supported 
 NYC*BUG for a long while.
