<DIV>Hello;</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> I am a Linux novice and am looking for a group that
might be able to provide a "small" amount of mentoring until I get up to
speed. Would this be the group to best meet that goal?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Respectfully,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>

down-town.<BR>Read below for more information.<BR><BR> Dinner:

Boardwalk (by Sam's), 8pm<BR><BR>This Tuesday from 8pm to 11pm we will be
having another installment of the<BR>Hacking Society. At 7pm we'll be
gathering at a restaurant for dinner,<BR>then heading over to the normal place
at 8pm for the main event.<BR><BR>We will be meeting at 7pm at Hunan Garden,
the Chinese place just east of<BR>the Re/Max building. It's at the South
East corner of the intersection of<BR>Harmony and Boardwalk.<BR><BR>The goal
of the Hacking Society is to foster geek community-building<BR>through the
shared experience of hacking. Of course, by "hacking",<BR>I mean the more
historic meaning of working on interesting projects<BR>(Jargon File "hack"
entry, sense 6). Not the "script kiddies trying to<BR>compromise boxes"
meaning which has become what most people think of in<BR>relation to the
term.<BR><BR>It's meant to be a sacred place full of positive hacking energy,
if you<BR>will. Hacking by osmosis...<BR><BR>Hacking Society is
primarily meant for you to come and work on your own<BR>projects, as opposed
to soliciting others to solve your problems (which is<BR>usually more what
goes on at an Install Fest or at the main NCLUG<BR>meetings).<BR><BR>More
information on Hacking Society, including some ideas for projects to<BR>work
on there, can be found at:<BR><BR> <A
