Fellow LUsers (Linux Users),

Am I the only one who has missed out on too many meetings recently? I
know I wish I could have been around for more and have made time
available for our "regular" scheduled time tonight.

There is no presentation. Bring an idea or just show up and listen to me
talk about creating and organizing XML processing tools into a web
application whose URLs closely follow the FHS (Filesystem Hierarchy
Standard -- http://www.pathname.com/fhs/). I have started with Orbeon
(http://orbeon.com) and stripped it down so right now I only use their
descriptive XPL (XML Pipeline Language -- W3C member submission draft
since 2005). The idea is to lay things out in a way familiar to a
moderate Linux user/developer.

I would also like to get the ball rolling on a customized distribution
representing the Billings Linux Users Group. Even if we just take Ubuntu
and change one graphic and one line of text, it is a start and something
anyone can contribute to, beginner or expert. I also have a Gentoo base
we could start from.

Lannocc operations is in the Metro Park Office & Industrial building at
1148 1st Ave N. Look for the EZ Money Check Cashing sign. Park in the
back and enter through door on east side. I'll put a sign up.

7:30 PM through 8:30 PM I'll be there.
