Hello everyone,
On Tuesday we'll have our next dinner meeting! Dinner doesn't really have a
specific topic, besides "stuff that we think is cool/has been happening
recently."
When: Tuesday, February 11, 7:00 PM
Where: The Flying Biscuit, 2016 Clark Ave, Raleigh, NC 27605 (Cameron
Village)
For newcomers, keep in mind that the LUG does not pay for dinner - everyone
pays for what they order. But if the restaurant isn't busy, they shouldn't
mind if you just hang out with us and maybe have a beverage.
Looking forward to seeing you all there!

Hello, campus open source community!
First off, I would like to remind everyone that if you want lunch at
FOSS Fair, you need to register by 12 noon on Monday, March 17 - just
one week away! The link to our registration form is on the FOSS Fair
wiki page:
https://opensource.ncsu.edu/FossFair2014
In addition, we now have a poster that you can print out and tape
anywhere there are people who might want to attend FOSS Fair! It's a
PDF that you can grab from:
https://opensource.ncsu.edu/FossFair2014?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=foss-fair-2014-poster.pdf
Please circulate the poster as widely as you can, because we're
already a bit short on promotional time for this year's Fair.
Finally, consider whether you want to give a talk at this year's Fair.
You don't have to be an expert or a professional speaker, just someone
with something to say about free and open source software. We have
already seen a couple of great-looking presentations posted to the
wiki, and we're looking forward to more! And if you don't want to
speak, add some topics you want to hear about to the "Suggestions"
section of the wiki - you may give someone else an idea!
Thanks,
Matthew Frazier

Message-ID: <52FA39C7.3090609@ncsu.[redacted]>
Topic: Ansible
Presenter: Joseph Tate

Ansible is a powerful remote system management tool like Puppet or Chef
for configuration management and like Fabric and Capistrano for
application deployment. Ansible can also do system provisioning through
modules for various cloud providers. As a hybrid, Ansible is a little
more step-wise than a pure configuration management system (which makes
it better for deploying software and dealing with multiple system tiers)
and more declarative than your typical remote automation framework
(which makes it easier to manage dissimilar systems, even systems not
originally deployed with Ansible). It has very minimal client
requirements and no deployed client agent. Joseph will introduce Ansible
for single tasks and highlight some of the built in modules and what you
can do with them. Then he will jump into best practices for stringing
multiple tasks together into Ansible Playbooks (especially how not to
repeat yourself). Finally, he'll tie it all together with Amazon EC2 to
show how to fire up spot instances using a base image, configure it with
a set of software and configuration, do some work with it, and finally
tear it all down.

The Steering Committee (SC) is keeping a close eye on the approaching
storm. If the storm brings significant snow and ice rain to the
Triangle area we may have to postpone the meeting to another day.
Barry is attempting to secure a room for the following week, ie
Thursday 20th Feb, but we are at the mercy of the NCSU booking system.
The SC will make the decision to postpone by 12 noon on Thursday and
notify members via the website and mailing lists.

Keep safe and warm,
Bill

The Steering Committee has decided to postpone tonight's TriLUG
meeting due to the weather. I have been informed that NCSU has
canceled classes for today, making access to the room tonight highly
unlikely.
We are tentatively planning to hold the meeting next Thursday 20th Feb
pending a room booking.

Message-ID: <CAMjyYxqPqEuT8exfj5fAFeM22kn2=DohceJatmgrwcLz41FS1A@mail.gmail.[redacted]>
Hello, campus open source community!
FOSS Fair is quickly approaching, and the deadline to sign up for
lunch is approaching even faster! To sign up, fill out the form linked
under "Participate" on our wiki page - if you do this by noon on
Monday, February 17, you will receive lunch at the Fair (graciously
provided by our friends at Red Hat).
When: Saturday, March 1, 2013, 9 AM - 5 PM
Where: Engineering Building II, east side (CSC)
Wiki: https://opensource.ncsu.edu/FossFair2014
In addition, all the talks at FOSS Fair are provided by participants
like you. If want to talk about something, add it to the list of
presentations on the wiki! If want to hear about something, add it to
the list of ideas on the wiki! And if you don't get it on the wiki,
that's OK - we don't set the schedule until we actually get to the
Fair, so you can propose a talk on site!
Finally, if you love FOSS Fair and want to help us, we still need
volunteers to give people directions, let them into the building,
clean up, tear down, and help out with all the other work that goes
into running an event like this. If you want to volunteer, email us at
<linux-users-group@ncsu.[redacted]>.
And if you don't want to volunteer, you can still help with FOSS Fair
by circulating this email and printing out our flyer
(https://opensource.ncsu.edu/FossFair2014?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=foss-fair-2014-poster.pdf).
We can't wait for the Fair, and we hope to see you there (and have
food for you)!
Thanks,
Matthew Frazier

Hello, campus open source community!
This is your final reminder to register for FOSS Fair, using the link
on our wiki page. If you register by noon today, you will receive free
lunch (courtesy of Red Hat), and a name badge! Even if you can't make
it by noon, still register so we know how many people to expect. (And
who knows: you may get lunch anyway!)

Where: Engineering Building II, east side (CSC)
Wiki: https://opensource.ncsu.edu/FossFair2014
After you've registered to attend the Fair, why not propose a session?
We can always use good talk topics, and you don't have to be a
professional speaker or anything to talk -- just someone with
something to talk about. And if you don't want to talk, but want to
hear about something in particular, add it to the wiki page!

The Steering Committee has decided to reschedule February's talk on
Ansible to our April meeting slot.
Topic: Ansible
Presenter: Joseph Tate
When: Thursday, 10th April 2014, 7pm (pizza from 6.45pm) (Re-scheduled from Feb)

Abstract:
Ansible is a powerful remote system management tool like Puppet or
Chef for configuration management and like Fabric and Capistrano for
application deployment. Ansible can also do system provisioning
through modules for various cloud providers. As a hybrid, Ansible is a
little more step-wise than a pure configuration management system
(which makes it better for deploying software and dealing with
multiple system tiers) and more declarative than your typical remote
automation framework (which makes it easier to manage dissimilar
systems, even systems not originally deployed with Ansible). It has
very minimal client requirements and no deployed client agent. Joseph
will introduce Ansible for single tasks and highlight some of the
built in modules and what you can do with them. Then he will jump into
best practices for stringing multiple tasks together into Ansible
Playbooks (especially how not to repeat yourself). Finally, he'll tie
it all together with Amazon EC2 to show how to fire up spot instances
using a base image, configure it with a set of software and
configuration, do some work with it, and finally tear it all down.
Bio:
Joseph was introduced to Linux while in college in 1998, and while he
didn't understand Debian then (and arguably still doesn't), did manage
to download RedHat 5.0 onto a bunch of floppies and install it
successfully; he then tried never again to look at Windows with
varying degrees of failure. He cut his first open source teeth on PHP
earning commit access to a couple of modules in 2001, and since has
contributed to many other projects. He now contributes most regularly
to CherryPy and a couple of pet projects. A long time RPM slinger, he
worked for the now defunct rPath from 2005-2009 building system
configuration and distro building software. Now he runs the completely
virtual infrastructure and continuous testing and build system for a
small SaaS startup in California from his evil lair^W^Wbasement.
Joseph holds a BSE in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from
Duke University, served as Publicity Chair of TriLUG from 2004-2006,
and has reluctantly been awarded three software patents. He thinks KDE
is the best desktop to run multiple terminals in, and VIM is the best
editor.
