of the Ubuntu Software Center, replacement of init system with
systemd[7] (new since the last LTS release), ability to move the Unity
launcher to the bottom of the screen, inclusion of ZFS[8] and the
introduction of Snappy[9]. An update on the progress of Ubuntu on
phones and tablets will also be presented, with a demonstration of the
first convergence device on the market, the bq Aquaris M10 Ubuntu
edition.
Elizabeth K. Joseph is a Senior Automation and Tools Engineer at
HPE[10] working on the OpenStack[11] Infrastructure team. She is a
former member of the Ubuntu Community Council[12] and is a co-author of

Henry's Hunan Restaurant, if folks are agreeable, we'll share and
dine "family" style, and split up the costs, and typical cost per

complementary tea) would be in the $13.00 to $17.50 range, and
commonly around $15.00 to $16.50. Cash may be preferred to ease
splitting up the check. One can also specifically order the
dish(es) one needs/prefers (e.g. for dietary considerations) - and
we also commonly order some dish(es) that may meet various dietary
considerations) (e.g. vegetarian, non-pork, ...). Please arrive by
7:00 P.M., we expect to order entrees at that time, and may order
appetizer(s) and/or soup(s) anytime after 6:30 P.M.

as feasible.

For our 2016-06-21 BALUG meeting:
At least presently we don't have a specific speaker/presentation lined
up for this meeting, but that doesn't prevent us from having
interesting and exciting meetings and discussions. Sometimes we also
manage to secure/confirm a speaker too late for us to announce or fully
publicize the speaker (that's happened at least twice in the past).
Got questions, answers, and/or opinions? We typically have some
expert(s) and/or relative expert(s) present to cover Linux and related
topic areas. Want to hear some interesting discussions on LINUX and
other topics? Show up at the meeting, and feel free to bring an agenda
if you wish. Want to help ensure BALUG has speakers/presentations
lined up for future meetings? Help refer speakers to us and/or
volunteer to be one of the speaker coordinators. Great food and
people, and interesting conversations to be had.
So, if you'd like to join us please RSVP to:

For our 2016-03-15 BALUG meeting:
2016-03-15 Keysigning[1] and things Debian[2]
For our 2016-03-15 meeting, we'll be doing Keysigning, and likely also
be discussing things Debian and PGP[3]/GPG[4]/GnuPG[4]. We're expecting
some Debian Developer (DD)[5] folk(s) and visitor from out of the area
who is working along to becoming a Debian Maintainer (DM)[6].
So, if you want to do Keysigning, or learn more about PGP/GPG/GnuPG, or
Debian, this would be quite relevant and useful meeting to attend to
cover those areas. And in all cases too, you'd get to meet and talk
with some cool Debian and Linux folks - good interesting conversations,
good food ... :-)

Meeting Details...
Cost/Dining:
The meetings are always free, but dinner is not (unless you are our
guest speaker, in which case we also treat you to dinner). For
Henry's Hunan Restaurant, if folks are agreeable, we'll share and
dine "family" style, and split up the costs, and typical cost per
person including tax and tip (but not including beverages beyond
complementary tea) would be in the $13.00 to $17.50 range, and
commonly around $15.00 to $16.50. Cash may be preferred to ease
splitting up the check. One can also specifically order the
dish(es) one needs/prefers (e.g. for dietary considerations) - and
we also commonly order some dish(es) that may meet various dietary
considerations) (e.g. vegetarian, non-pork, ...). Please arrive by
7:00 P.M., we expect to order entrees at that time, and may order
appetizer(s) and/or soup(s) anytime after 6:30 P.M.
------------------------------
We typically have various giveaway items at BALUG meetings. We'll
likely have at least the below plus additional items.
Books and other titles!
5 newly received titles, presently 7 titles total,
have a look/read here:
https://www.wiki.balug.org/wiki/doku.php?id=balug:books_and_publicationshttp://lists.balug.org/pipermail/balug-talk-balug.org/2016-March/000035.html

We may also be able to "burn" images per request or copy to USB flash,
etc. Donations of blank or +-RW media, USB flash, or funding thereof,
also appreciated. See the above URL for details (and the inventory
(qty.) of what we specifically have "burned" and available on-hand does
also frequently change).
------------------------------
Upcoming BALUG list changes?!
Yes, for the past many years, much of BALUG, including our lists, has
been and is still presently hosted on DreamHost.com. We expect to be
changing that in the fairly near-term future - hopefully by about the
end of this month or before next month's meeting, or so - in any case
we'll update on status when that's about to change and when it does
change. We'll provide more details as we approach and go through that
transition, and we'll make it as painless as feasible.

Got questions, answers, and/or opinions? We typically have some
expert(s) and/or relative expert(s) present to cover Linux and related
topic areas. Want to hear some interesting discussions on LINUX and
other topics? Show up at the meeting, and feel free to bring an agenda
if you wish. Want to help ensure BALUG has speakers/presentations
lined up for future meetings? Help refer speakers to us and/or
volunteer to be one of the speaker coordinators. Great food and
people, and interesting conversations to be had.
