from the home of Wayne’s World, Aurora IL
Tonight LIVE on www.thelinuxshow.com
At 6pm pt, 7pm mt, 8pm ct, and 9pm et…. Kevin Hill, Jeff
Gerhardt, Doc Searls (Linux Journal), Arne Flones and Russ
Pavlicek; have another CLASSIC show lined up tonight on The Linux
Show!!
In Segment One – Hot News: We will be covering
the hot Linux news of the last few weeks. In particular we will
talk about Michael Tiemann testifying against
MICROSOFT.
In Segment Two- Introducing The Open Technology
Consortium (GeekPAC) or A more aggressive step at securing
our future.
Tonight we ask the listeners indulge us a bit as we introduce
our New Political Action Committee The Open Technology
Consortium. We will have a URL available for users to
review our initial Position Statement by ShowTime. The need for
such a PAC should be obvious.
It has become apparent. Regardless of the efforts the founding
members of the PAC have attempted to use to influence the outcome
of political events that impact the mixed communities of; the Open
Source development community, the Internet and ISP communities, the
Linux community and the “non-Microsoft centric” portion of the
general IT community; that those efforts have failed.
It is now time to take a more aggressive, attack direct to the
seat of power in Washington DC. The creation of this PAC is to
effect a sense of UNITY between several technology communities, and
allow a common reference to carry a diverse message.
In Segment Three- Book Corner Learning Red Hat
Linux 7.2
Time permitting Jeff will review the new O’Rielly book by Bill
McCarty Learning Red Hat Linux (ver 7.2). This is
a fabulous introduction to linux and is framed for easy
understanding by they typical Windows user (who has a basic
clue).
Please join us on the show, and check our IRC
Chat(irc.thelinuxshow.com #linuxshow).
Remember tune in at 6pm pt, 7pm mt, 8pm ct, and 9pm et.
