The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly
meeting on Tuesday, May 8.  The meeting topic for this month is
as follows:

   ZFS

   Edwin Amsler will talk about (and demonstrate, if all goes
   well) ZFS. ZFS is a filesystem originally developed at Sun
   Microsystems. It has numerous features and has a native port to
   Solaris, OpenSolaris, and FreeBSD; Non-official ports have been
   made to Linux and Mac OSX. Edwin will be focusing on the basic
   usage of the filesystem and the snapshotting features that come
   built in.

   May's RTFM will feature the parallel(1) command, presented by
   Gilbert Detillieux.

The group holds its general meetings at 7:30pm 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: 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 7:15pm, 
   so the meeting can start promptly at 7:30pm. Don't be late, or you may
   not get in.  (But don't come too early either, since security may not
   be there to let you in before 7:15 or so.) Non-members may be required
   to show photo ID at the security desk.

   Limited parking is available for free on the street, either on Ellice
   Ave. or on some of the intersecting streets. Indoor parking is also
   available nearby, at Portage Place, for $5.00 for the evening. Bicycle
   parking is available in a bike rack under video surveillance located
   behind the building on Webb Place.
