		       TLUG October 11 Meeting
		       ------------------------

All Linux lovers in the Kanto area are invited to attend
the October 11th Tokyo Linux Users Group meeting.  Membership
is open to anyone.  There are currently no membership dues.

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.  However, 
everyone is welcome to attend.  We especially want to encourage
Japanese people to attend and will make efforts to 
support a bilingual meeting.  

The TLUG home page is available at

-------

TLUG meetings are traditionally small and unstructured 
(VERY CASUAL).  Most of the benefit of the meeting comes 
from chatting with other Linux users and having informal 
discussions.  Lunch is one of the main reasons for going 
to the meetings for many people.  Everyone is expected 
to pay for their own meal.

We will be meeting at Tokyo station on October 11, Saturday
in front of the Tokyo station Yaesu central exit at 12:30.
There is more than one Yaesu exit, so be careful.  If you
know you are going and don't know what we look like, send
me an e-mail (craig@example.com) and I'll make sure we wait 
for you.  After everyone gathers, we'll walk down the stairs 
and have lunch in the restaurant area in the basement of 
Tokyo station.  We usually decide where to eat when everyone gathers.  
If you're late or can't find us, your second chance is
to hang out at Starbucks at 13:30.  After a cup of coffee
we'll walk over to Joe Marchak's office.  

At least the following hardware will be set up for demonstration.
    Sparc 2     (linux isn't installed yet)
    PPro 200    (the CDE machine)
    DX4-120     (an older machine that we can hack around with)
    Hub&cables  

We may do a few installs.  Feel free to bring your own machine
or software.  People often bring their hard disks for an
install.  The meeting is usually unstructured.  

We have the following prizes that will be given out:

	at least one Caldera Open Linux T-shirt
	at least six Open DOS CDs
	about twelve Open Linux Lite Caldera CDs
