San Francisco Linux Users' Group

The next meeting is on Sunday July 05th, from 11:00 AM till 1:00 PM, at the Cafe Euro, on Geary at 26th Ave in San Francisco.


SF-LUG meetings are the first Sunday of the month, 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM, and third Monday of each month, 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Meetings are usually in San Francisco at the Cafe Euro on Geary Boulevard at 26th Avenue.

SF-LUG is a discussion group that focuses on Linux and related open source technologies and news. We often have some great talks together. It's different from listening to a lecture and often more fun (we each get to talk). Topics vary from meeting to meeting, free form, sometimes with multiple simultaneous topics ranging from communities to technologies, including Linux, gnu toolkit, services and clients, freeBSD, Mac OSX, and Solaris.

Members are anyone belonging to the sf-lug mailing list. Anyone interested in Linux may join the sf-lug mailing list: sf-lug mail list.

Members are encouraged to checkout and add to (edit requires login) the wiki.
