[Cialug] Meetings in September

I mentioned this at the meeting last week, but wanted to drop a note to
everyone so you can all get these on your calendar if you are
interested.

First of all, our regularly-scheduled meeting will be on the 16th.  The
topic will be virtualization on/in Linux.  I know that those of us that
are particularly interested in virtualization tend to come to VUG
meetings, but I think it would be good for us to have a quick recap of
virtualization technologies in the Linux world.  If anyone wants to talk
about / give a demo on any of the following, please contact me off-list:

* Xen
* KVM
* VMWare
* Wine
* QEMU
* Eucalyptus

Secondly, and perhaps more interestingly, we will have a bonus meeting. 
On September 23rd, Jeffrey Barr (Senior Evangelist for the Amazon Web
Services) will be giving us a talk on Amazon Web Services -- EC2, S3,
SimpleDB, and so forth.  He is also working on a book on tying into the
Amazon system using PHP, so if there is interest, we may tie that in to
the meeting as well.  This meeting will be at 7:00 PM at Alliance, just
like the regular meetings.

Jeffrey is also willing to meet with people during day on the 23rd, if
the time/location do not work for you.  If you want a separate meeting,
let me know off-list and I will give you his contact info.

This is a multi-group meeting, so please feel free to bring anyone
interested and to pass this message along to others.
