This message is being sent out to all MUUG members (and a few potential members) who have provided us with an e-mail address. In the future, we will be sending these announcements only to people who subscribe to our new mailing list, muug-announce@muug.mb.ca. This is an opt-in mailing list, using the GNU Mailman list server, so you will have full control over whether or not you wish to receive such messages.
However, this means that you have to subscribe to this list yourself if you wish to continue receiving such announcements in the future. Do so today, so you don't forget and miss announcements. (This new list will continue to have a very low volume of traffic, so don't worry about getting more mail.)
You can subscribe through the convenient web-based interface:
http://www.muug.mb.ca/mailman/listinfo/muug-announce
You can also do so directly via e-mail, as follows:
echo subscribe | mail muug-announce-request@muug.mb.ca
To get help:
echo help | mail muug-announce-request@muug.mb.ca
My apologies to those who receive this twice. To date, we've only had 27 people sign up to the new muug-announce list, so we're giving those few procrastinators among us another chance to sign up by repeating this message on the old list too.
Hope to see you all on muug-announce and, of course, at the next meeting!

The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly meeting on Tuesday, June 13. The meeting topic for this month is as follows:
IBM VisualAge for Java
This month, Steve Banks from IBM in Winnipeg will present VisualAge for Java. Steve is a Computer Engineering graduate from the U of M, and a software developer with IBM. He has been using VisualAge for Java for the past year in a team-based, collaborative software development project.
At the meeting you will hear about: the VisualAge development environment, the repository (the database used for revision control), the debugger, Enterprise Java Beans, WebSphere and Servlets, and Installation on Linux and Windows.
The group holds its general meetings at 7:30 PM on the second Tuesday of every month from September to June. (There are no meetings in July and August.) Meetings are open to the general public; you don't have to be a MUUG member to attend.
********************************************************************** Please note our meeting location: IBM Canada's offices in the TD Centre, at the corner of Portage and Main. We gather in the lobby on the main floor - please try to be there by about 7:15 PM. Steve Moffat will then take us up to the meeting room just before the meeting starts at 7:30. Don't be late, or you may not get in.
Parking is available either in the parkade behind the TD building, off Albert Street, or in the ground level lot just north of the TD building. Entrance to the lot is from Albert Street, behind the parkade. Either way, parking is a $1.25 flat rate for the evening. You purchase your ticket from a dispenser, so make sure you've got exact change - a loonie and a quarter, or 5 quarters. **********************************************************************
