BayLISA Meeting: Tonight, Thurs Nov 16, Network Monitoring

[Heather Stern]

That's right folks, the meeting is tonight, Third Thursday of the Month, 
for BayLISA's monthly sysadmin gathering.

With much thanks to our sponsors, we will have pizza, and expect to have
sodas.  Anyone who brings cookies will be greeted with much glee, especially
if they're chocolate.  Other snacks *may* also be present but I can't say
for sure.

When? Show up at 7PM...  Well, we never do quite get started on time, but
      if you show up too late, you miss most of the pizza and all of the 
      announcements.

In addition to the usual, we've got Elections this month.  Voting
materials will be handed out to paid up members - or you can check if
your vote already got in.  (Thanks, Alan, for offering electronic vote as
a method this time around.)  Members not quite paid up can talk to the
Treasurer :)

Thomas Stocking will be entertaining us on the history and development of
monitoring tools in the open source networking world.  He's got years of
experience and a wide realm of it too, and will bring anecdotes of what
really did or didn't really work.  

CHEAP PLUGS
  Anyone who's interested in offering us a Short But Cool presentation in
  December should chat with next month's EC, Rick.

  It's common but not required, many of us go to dinner afterwards.

I expect to have a lot of fun; see you there.
