The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly
meeting IN PERSON, on Tuesday, September 3rd, at 7:30pm.  Yes, that's 
the FIRST Tuesday of the month...

    Fly light!, plus Sublime Text

    Kevin McGregor will provide a gentle introduction to the lighttpd
    web server. "lighttpd (pronounced lighty) is a secure, fast,
    compliant, and very flexible web server that has been optimized
    for high-performance environments. lighttpd uses memory and CPU
    efficiently and has lower resource use than other popular web
    servers. Its advanced feature-set (FastCGI, CGI, Auth,
    Output-Compression, URL-Rewriting and much more) make lighttpd the
    perfect web server for all systems, small and large."

    For our mini-presentation of a "desktop app," Brad Vokey will do a
    quick demonstration of his favourite GUI text editor: Sublime Text
    - "Text Editing Done Right." Sublime Text is a fast, mature,
    light weight, beautiful, customizable, expandable, cross-platform,
    "shareware" text editor. Brad has previously written about Sublime
    Text in the MUUG 2021-06 newsletter (page 5), and he will now
    give us a quick intro into some of it's features.

    Where to find the Meeting:
    Fortress Software Inc., 350 Keewatin St -- Unit #2

    We have a new in-person meeting location now! Brad Vokey has
    graciously let us use his work office for our next in-person
    meeting. The meeting room will be open by 7:00 pm, with the actual
    meeting starting at 7:30 pm. If driving, enter the lot using the
    most north east entrance and drive around to the south west corner
    of the building (see route in map detail on poster linked below).
    You can use any of the free, ample, and safe parking spots that
    say "reserved" in front of units #1 through #4 before entering
    unit #2. Bus stops #30814 and #30880 (route 77) are only 150
    meters away. The last bus leaves for Polo Park at 10:15 pm and for
    Garden City at 10:31 pm. Logan Ave. bus routes #19, #26, and #27
    are a 600 meter (8 minute) walk to the south.

    For those unable or preferring not to attend in person, the
    meeting will also be available online, using BBB as usual. Stay
    tuned to our muug.ca home page for the official URL, which
    will be made available about a half hour before the meeting
    starts. (Reload the page if you don't see the link, or if there

The group now holds its meetings at 7:30pm on the *first* Tuesday of 
every month from September to June. (There are no meetings in July and
