[TriLUG] 20th Large Installation System Administration Conference

[Liyun Yu]

If we have enough Trilug people going to LISA06,
How about let's setup a Birds-A-Feather Session with
the name/title of Trilug at LISA 2006?

In addition to what Bill said in his email announcement,
LISA is one of the best places to meet the O'Reilly authors
not by reading their books but their faces :-)  Their tutorials
are very good.

For those who never come to LISA in the past, come to
NC*SA's meeting tonight and I would be more than
happy to share my LISA experience with you after the
meeting if you like.

Thanks,

Liyun Yu
