Hi Everyone. Just to keep you up to speed on the workings at NUI.

Please help me welcome the Real World Linux committee as our newest
members. Real World Linux takes place April 13-15, 2004. They can be
reached at: 
http://www.realworldlinux.com or via http://www.TorontoNUI.ca.
The Real World Linux organizers have offered to provide us meeting
space during the event and a small area to promote the group. We need
members to participate in order to help make our contribution a success.

We are in the throes of an election for regional representatatives for
Canada. Chris has been re-elected for eastern Canada but It seems the
west is detached from the east (Manitoba - BC) and the NUI board wants
to represent the west via the US. If you want to provide any input
drop myself or Chris Horton a note. 

We've had some concern expressed by various parties in NUI and local
members about the lack of regular meetings. Many feel most of what
meetings used to provide is now available on the Internet at
http://www.nuinet.com so meetings are no longer of interest. Many US
chapters still have regular meetings. Toronto area participation is
down. I'd like some feedback on this or send your comments to Chris
Horton or directly to the NUI board in Utah. 

I upgraded my CNE recently to Netware 6. I was amazed to find that the
testing center (which I won't name) demanded I surrender my wallet to
be locked in a locker by staff while I wrote the test. Anyone else
have this experience? Needless to say I was'nt happy.

Brainshare 2004 March 21-26, 2004 is gearing up for the registration
December 1, 2003. I don't have any discount codes yet so you may want
to hold off for now. 

Novell is in the midst of and exciting period (SuSe, Ximian) and I
look forward to what the future holds assuming SCO does'nt put entire
free IT world in jail. I went to Las Vegas in August to SCOForum. They
seemed somewhat normal...

I wish you all the best for a safe and enjoyable holiday season!
