  Topics: free talk with Art Tyde

This is an extra meeting, outside the TLUG regular calendar.

Art Tyde was the co-founder and first CEO of Linuxcare, 
founder/president of the Silicon Valley and Bay Area Linux
Users Group (1994), a director of controversial Open Source
software company SpecOps Labs, a founder of embedded Linux
wireless company Sputnik Inc. (just about to IPO), and the
Chief Certification Officer for the Free Standards Group.

His company Levanta (formerly known as Linuxcare) is currently
looking to find Japanese resellers for their product -- and he
is, of course, looking to hook up with the Linux community in Japan.

Thus, we are scheduling this extra meeting, earlier and shorter
than usual, as an opportunity to talk with Art. All Linux users
and supporters of open source code and free software are invited
to attend this Tokyo Linux Users Group (TLUG) meeting. Membership
is open to anyone. There are no membership dues or entrance fees.

After the meeting, we will look for a place for lunch and continue
chatting (and have a few beers).

About TLUG
----------
TLUG is a non-profit, non-political organization established in June
of 1994 to exchange information on the use of Linux and Free Software
Foundation tools.  TLUG has an active mailing list, home page, and
regular physical meetings.  Discussions are primarily held in English,
but non-English speakers are encouraged to come and participate.
We especially want to encourage Japanese people to attend and will make
efforts to support a bilingual meeting.

TLUG hosts technical meetings every odd month on the 2nd Saturday, and
nomikai's every even month on the 2nd Friday.
