Don't put your taxes off till the last second because we've got at least 2 presentations for this months meeting. With the upcoming release of Ubuntu 16.04LTS on the 21st many people will be using systemd for the first time, Todd Millecam will give us a look inside the controversial init daemon. Ed Nicholson will cover the Atom editor as well as the Electron framework that it's built on.

Ed Nicholson Title: Atom and Electron Explainer Description: Atom is a desktop editor, like Textmate or Sublime, and it is built on the Node.js framework called Electron. This is a tour of Atom's features and a look at what Electron can do. We have Github to thank for both of these tools and I hope you find them as useful as I do.
