The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly
meeting on Tuesday, March 11.  The meeting topic for this month is
as follows:

   Wiki and TWiki

   Wiki is a piece of server software that allows users to freely create
   and edit Web page content using any Web browser. Wiki supports
   hyperlinks and has a simple text syntax for creating new pages and
   crosslinks between internal pages on the fly. We will focus on a Wiki
   implementation called TWiki, a flexible, powerful, and easy to use
   Web-based collaboration platform. Use TWiki to run a project
   development space, a document management system, a knowledge base, or
   any other groupware tool, on an intranet or on the internet. Web
   content can be created collaboratively by using just a browser.
   Developers can create new web applications based on a Plugin API.

   Bill Reid will be presenting this month's topic.

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 new meeting location: The IBM offices, at 400 Ellice
   Ave. (between Edmonton and Kennedy). When you arrive, you will have to
   sign in at the reception desk, and then wait for someone to take you
   (in groups) to the meeting room. Please try to arrive by about 7:15
   PM, so the meeting can start promptly at 7:30 PM. Don't be late, or
   you may not get in.

   Limited parking is available for free on the street, or in a lot
   across Ellice from IBM, for $1.00 for the evening. Indoor parking is
   also available nearby, at Portage Place, for $2.00 for the evening.

Also note that MUUG maintains two mailing lists, called "muug-announce"
and "roundtable".  If you're not already on these lists, we encourage you
to subscribe now:

        http://www.muug.mb.ca/mailman/listinfo/

The "muug-announce" list is used for monthly meeting announcements (such
as this one) as well as other important announcements of interest to MUUG
members.

The "rountable" list is meant to be a forum for follow-ups to topics
discussed at the meetings, or for round-table-style discussion on other
topics that come up between meetings.  Of course, for this to be effective,
we need to reach a certain critical mass.  So, please subscribe, and stay
involved!
