[Joseph Tate]

Title: Teach Linux to answer the phone! Learn how to use Asterisk!

Description:
Turn your Linux box into a high-powered phone system! Learn all about
the Asterisk PBX software and how you can use it to answer your phone,
run scripts, and even make cheap long-distance calls over the Internet!
Mark Turner from Siteseers will be teaching this introduction and basic
programming class.  The class is free, and open to the public.

The class will run from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM, Saturday June 12, 2004.

Additional information:
The class will be held at the Global Knowledge training facility off 
Regency Parkway in Cary(directions below).  The designed seating 
capacity is 32, though 40 will fit.  Arrive early for the best seating. 
  There are a number of computers in the classroom with Internet access 
(might want to bring your favorite live CD), or bring a laptop (wireless 
access will be available) so that you can work "hands on".  The seating 
will be first come first served, and I anticipate a capacity crowd, so 
if you're traveling from Charlotte, Wilmington or other points distant, 
give yourself plenty of time to get there early.

Coffee and soda, as well as the facilities are graciously provided by 
Global Knowledge.  Snacks will be provided by TriLUG (donations always 
welcome and tax deductible).

The west doors will be unlocked from 8:00 to 10:00 AM.
