Lisa,

Thanks for the reply.  I guess I have been a little blind lately to other peoples needs and perspectives.  I picked Sunday afternoon thinking it would a day and time that people would have free.  If everyone interested in participating can agree on a better day and time I can probably arrange that.

1) Today was MOTHERS DAY.

We geeky types forget the social requirements and have unrealistic expectations of everyone, even in the PLUG.

2) It is very hard for people in this economy.  They can't get to everything, so they are very picky, attending a RHEL RHCE study group, or a special concert in their free time (what little is left after pursuit of the legal tender).

3) Hang out, as people get to know you, and realize how fun hanging at your house is, they will come around.  Or not, since:

If you pursue what you are passionate about, continue to promote it, and post to the list, you will have contributed.

Also, are their any CAD groups you can cross post to?

Hi Lisa,

    I appreciate your offer to setup NFS for me, however, I don't really want someone to just do it for me.  I need to understand how to set it up and maintain it; and the other issues are more important.  I really need someone to come over and help me resolve the remaining IPcop, SME server, & Ubuntu server issues. If anyone is both willing and able to come over and help I would really appreciate it.  I am really close to having everything working properly, although, I am not sure that I can resolve the remaining issues.
    The second BlenderCAD workshop was today and again no one showed.  I intend on holding the BlenderCAD workshop every Sunday afternoon.  Hopefully, people will come and contribute.  I know that for years I have waited for someone else to write the CAD software for me, and it was only recently that I figured out that if I want a CAD program I was going to have to step up and do something.

Matthew,
I can't come to BlenderCAD, but I have a few cards you can pick through?
Also, if you give me ssh access, I can setup your NFS.

Hi everyone,

   Just a reminder to everyone that this Sunday is the 2nd BlenderCAD
workshop.  It is from 12-6pm every sunday, at my house (address below).
BlenderCAD is not going to write itself; so I am trying to do my part
and I invite everyone who also wants a full featured open source cad
program to come over and help.  No development experience required; just
bring your passion for BlenderCAD.
   Here is what I was thinking that we should work on this Sunday.  I
still have not managed to get SME server and IPCop to work together
properly.  I could really use some help setting it up.  I have the red &
green zones working; orange is almost working, and I have not really
started on the blue zone yet.  I think I need 4 unique ethernet cards
and I only have 3.  I believe I will need a 10/100 ethernet pci card
that is not made by Intel, 3com, or RealTek, to get the blue zone
working.  (If anyone feels like donating one.)
      I also have the data server to setup.  I want to install Ubuntu
server edition on it, and use nfs to mount the something/data partition
to the workstations when they boot up.  Although, I am not really
familiar with Ubuntu server or NFS.  I could use some help with this also.
     I do have workstations ready for people to use if they want to
start working on the webpage, artwork, documentation, or source code.
     I look forward to seeing all of you here on Sunday, 05-10-09,
12-6pm.  BYOE.  I have workstations, wired ethernet, and fridge space
for you to use.
