The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will not be holding its next monthly meeting on Tuesday, April 14th: April 14, 2020: CANCELLED In light of the current concerns over COVID-19 and the risk of infection, and in keeping with a directive from the University of Winnipeg (which states "All discretionary events on campus currently scheduled until May 1, 2020 will be postponed."*), the MUUG board has decided to cancel the April 14th meeting. The board will be looking into ways we can provide a remote, virtual meeting for subsequent months, if the current public health circumstances continue. (Stay tuned for updates on future meetings.) * https://news-centre.uwinnipeg.ca/all-posts/uwinnipeg-update-on-covid-19-sit… For more information about MUUG, and its monthly meetings, check out their web server: https://muug.ca/ -- Manitoba UNIX User Group E-mail: <gedetil(a)muug.ca> c/o Gilbert E.

Re: [Muug] [RndTbl] MUUG Meeting, Tonight (Mar 10), 7:30pm -- FreeSWITCH Asterisk Clone

Regarding good science on keeping ourselves safe, individual action is very important, except we can accomplish much more and this with less effort through collective action as borne out by a super CBC Q&Q program 20200228 providing some honest-to-goodness good science. For details please see "We may have passed the tipping point in the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak" @ the following which includes a link to the 15 minute program segment. https://www.cbc.ca/radio/quirks/feb-29-coronavirus-containment-window-closi… From other news Canada is one of very few countries that is using early detection standards with almost zero human to human transmission while countries such as Italy and Iran have already experiencied explosive transmission trends and the US is close behind all because they only test once the patients are gravely ill and by that time containment is nearly impossible. California, Washington and New York are at the cusp of widespread transmission vectors. In short because of our proximity and interexchange with the US, BC foremost followed by Ontario East are at greatest risk of being the early adopters of this outbreak. BTW sneezing/coughing into your elbow is actually very poor science as explained by Q & Q. If you cough into your hand, best with a tissue and then wash immediately, this is much better science than coughing into your elbow when the virus can survive for over a week and each time you cross your arms you reinfected your hand...

Come for the interesting trivia, stay for the philosophical musings! Round-table, Mingling and Munchies As 2019 draws to a close, MUUG will continue our recent tradition of turning the December meeting into more of a social event. *Bring your favourite gadget!* We will have the usual round-table session, followed by the RTFM presentation (see above), then a gadget show & tell, and finally, some time for mingling, eating, and drinking. *This will be a pot-luck snack event.* Cookies and pop will be provided by MUUG, but members are encouraged to bring their own finger food to sample and share. Feel free to bring your own drink as well if you want something particular - just remember that we don't have a liquor license! Winnipeg Harvest Food Drive Also as in previous years, we will combine our pot luck with a food drive for Winnipeg Harvest. Cash donations are preferred this year as every $1 Winnipeg Harvest receives, they are able to pick up and deliver $20 worth of groceries. *Any member who donates at least $1 or brings at least 1 food item will be given an entry into the door prize draw!* Winnipeg Harvest has information about what they're looking for on their website: http://winnipegharvest.org/donate-food/ The group holds its meetings at 7:30pm on the second Tuesday of every month from September to June.
