As much as I have been looking forward to meeting everyone, and defending the honor of SLES/SLED, I am not going to be able to make it to Thursday's gathering :( I'm moving to a new house this week, and between the suddenly not functioning central air/heat, and the newly formed lake that is the back yard, I'm going to have to be in town to meet the various people coming to take care of these issues, and they are all showing up on Thursday and Friday. I was expecting to have all that out of the way by Thursday, but as my predominantly bad luck would have it, that is not the case. If I survive this move, hopefully I can make it over and meet everyone next month.<br>
Sorry for the last minute cancelling on talking about SLES/SLED :(<br>

Subject: [ale] Thursday Feb 21 ALE Central Meeting Announcement<br>
<br>
This month will have a friendly (hopefully) compare and contrast multi-speaker talk on different distros.<br>
Jim Kinney will do RHEL/CentOS<br>
Allen Beddington is covering SuSE SLES/SLED<br>
Lawrence Hamblin will discuss Gentoo<br>
Mike Harrison plans to show and tell Bodhi if he's in town.<br>
<br>
THE PLAN (TM) is to cover strengths, weaknesses, likes, dislikes, everything about installation, usage, libraries, package managers, configuration, security and programming in 10 minutes. Yeah, right! As distro choice is almost a religious process, be sure to bring your favorite barbs and jeers as well as your misty-eyed remembrances. Please no rotten fruits or other vegetation as some of this material will stink enough already (gnome3).<br>
<br>
There is still room for a volunteer for Debian or Slackware. We may need to do a Ubuntu vs Fedora grudge match later.<br>
<br>
We will meet in the usual location at Emory at 7:30 and migrate to Meltons for further commiserating afterwards.<br>
