NYCBUG monthly meeting
Wednesday, March 2nd Manhattan NY, USA
6 pm, Soho Apple Store at 103 Prince Street [1]
Michael "Mickey" Shalayeff will talk about the hppa port of OpenBSD
which he maintains. He maintains many of the applications which run on
this peculiar platform and will provide some insight to the inquisitive
as to what this combo can do.
Mickey has contributed heavily to the CARP project which has become
such a success. It is hard to find some code which Michael has not at
least influenced in OpenBSD. He seems to be dextrous on any hardware
platform and is equally well versed in PCI as he is SCSI. Mickey is
readily available on the message lists and is always happy to help
impart some of his vast networking knowledge to beggars and sysadmins
with a smile (;

to believe)

NYC*BUG tshirts will also be in. We will be selling them for $15.
Each has the NYC*BUG logo on the left front breast, and a customized
dmesg trailing down the back of the shirt. Anyone who donates $50 or
more to the OpenBSD Hackathon Fundraiser will receive a tshirt for
free.
These tshirts are hot. And supporting the OpenBSD Hackathon
Fundraiser, which is responsible for so many innovations in *BSD Land
and beyond, is hotter.
