SVLUG News

If you are an SVLUG member and have an article worthy of posting, please let the webmasters know. Make sure to provide a URL.

  • We've done a number of kernel walkthru sessions so far; some are already on YouTube with more expected soon. Session leaders bring particular perspectives and insights, with SVLUG members asking questions and contributing their own ideas. The Wikiversity page and its discussion page provide all the details you might want.
  • Occasionally our site goes offline for whatever reasons. When that happens you might learn more via our Google Group.
  • As one result of the storied July 1998 "Future of Linux" panel in Santa Clara, SVLUG started creating a Press Kit. This project was revived in 2006, and will be maintained as an information resource for the technology press and others.
  • Talk Slides: if you missed or want to revisit Marc's password talk in February 2000, we now have the slides.
  • SVLUG has posted pictures from Windows Refund Day on Feb 15, 1999.
