Hello All,

This may be of some interest to those of you looking for alternatives 
while TasLUG meetings are on hiatus.

Cheers,

The FLOSS Down Under group (Flounder) group is starting next Saturday 
1PM Melbourne time (the above page summarises it).

https://b.coker.com.au/

The above URL will redirect to the meeting URL, it's deliberately short 
so if your primary device has an issue you can quickly type it into 
another device.

We haven't entirely decided on the main feature, but thinking of having 
it be hands on training on BTRFS and ZFS while at the same time 
discussing new advances (both new technology and older technology that 
has become cheaper and thus more usable) in storage for FOSS systems. 
If there's someone who has experience with Optane on Linux who could 
give a 10+ minute talk about it then please contact me off list.

The meetings will include a summary and discussion of new free software 
that is noteworthy (with input welcome from anyone who thinks we missed 
something noteworthy).  We will also have some mention of recent 
security issues and other changes to the environment that we operate in.

Anyone who wants to contribute to a meeting can contact me in advance to 
have some time reserved for a lightning talk or a feature talk at a 
future meeting.

Please forward this message to all free software users groups in 
Australia and NZ.  Note that this is not designed to compete with 
existing LUGs, but to offer something different.
