- - Another segment on OpenOffice.org 2.0
- - An Introduction to web frameworks

Woody is scheduled to present on the tools available for Electronic
Computer Aided Design on Linux.  Should be interesting.

Dennis Kibbe will treat us with another of his brief but very
informative demos of features from the OpenOffice.org 2.0 suite of
office applications.

Mike Garfias will give us and Introduction to web frameworks.  Said he:

"I'll be covering the basics of the MVC design pattern, as well as a
brief overview of Catalyst, with mention of Rails, and other frameworks.

"I am a veteran of the DotCom craze, where I worked for Network
Associates and a pair of startups that went broke (one was bought by NAI
before fading completely).  I've been a QA engineer, a web hosting
sysadmin, and even done windows admin a few times."

Looks like a good line up to me!  There will be swag (door prizes) too!

Alan
