PCUG Monthly Meeting - Monday 30th June: Manning Clarke Theatre, ANU :
7.30pm


All welcome:


Speaker - Hugh Blemmings:


Topic - "Linux, Open Source and IBM"

It covers what IBM is doing with Linux globally then drills down into
the 
Linux Technology Centre and our team here in Australia in more detail so
it 
has a good local flavour to it overall

Hugh first tinkered with Slackware Linux 0.9 in the early nineties and 
never looked back.  He was the one of the original authors of the gnokii 
project (<http://gnokii.org/>http://gnokii.org) and wrote the original 
Linux kernel drivers for the Keyspan brand of USB to Serial 
adapters.  After a stint at the Australian office of Linuxcare, Hugh
joined 
IBM's Linux Technology Centre in March 2001 as manager of the OzLabs
kernel 
development team.
