Heya folks,

As Roy posted in the announcement earlier, we are having birthday cake
along pizza at tonight's meeting, to celebrate TriLUG's 5th birthday. 
Please come and eat some -- it will be a BIG cake.  

(Remember all the popcorn we had at the June meeting?  Yeah, so we like
to think big.  *grin*)

Also, here's the abstract for the White Dwarf Linux presentation:

White Dwarf Linux (http://www.whitedwarflinux.com/) is designed to run
on PC/104 (www.pc104.org) embedded computer modules. PC/104 offers full
architecture, hardware, and software compatibility with the PC bus, but
in ultra-compact (3.6" x 3.8") stackable modules. Scott Every, CTO of
Blast Internet Services and maintainer of the White Dwarf Linux
distribution, will present a talk covering the following:

     1. An introduction to White Dwarf Linux
     2. The specifications on software versions, etc.
     3. The White Dwarf philosophy
     4. An Overview of toolchain and the White Dwarf build system
     5. A discussion of White Dwarf native packaging (slackware's
        pkgtools)
Finally, a demonstration of installing White Dwarf on a PC/104 machine,
including a web server which then should be accessible to attendees.
