Subject: MEETING: PLUG This Thurs (3/12)
Topics for this months meeting:

First speaker:
Brian Cluff - Hidden features of the Kdenlive video editor

Brian will cover a number of very useful features he has found while
editing the videos he shots of the Phoenix Linux Users Group.

Second Speaker:
Aaron Lokote Jones - Virtual Private Servers: A short overview
Topic Level: Beginner

A VPS or Virtual Private Server is an affordable tool that can be used
to help you learn how to administer a web facing Linux installation,
augment your day to day activities, or simply become a source of fun.
During the talk we will explore a VPS, learn what kind of software is
available for a VPS and how that can be used to enhance your day to day
computer use, and how much it could potentially cost.

Aaron L. Jones is a former member of the Texas State Guard who now works
