Immediately after the meeting, some members join for the Steering Committee Meeting, at a near-by restaurant. Everyone is invited to attend.

Each month, we ask someone to present the ways they use Linux and Free Software in their life, often in particular to their career. We are scheduling upcoming speakers, so contact us if you are interested. On occasions when a presenter is not at hand, we will have a roundtable discussion. Members are encouraged to Recommend a Future Presenter, which may include yourself if you like, for unscheduled meetings.

• Meeting is cancelled due to snowy/icy conditions

• Chris McQuistion shows us how to set up a "Super Router", using pfSense and Untangle to create a robust multi-WAN, multi-LAN router, complete with filtering for spam, viruses, spyware, P2P, etc.
