Introduction to a Linux "Hacking Society"

This Thursday instead of having a set speaker for our meeting, CLUE-
North will be hosting a Linux "Hacking Society" meeting.  People are
welcome to bring in projects he/she might be working on and encouraged
to demonstrate or "show off" these projects to others.  This is another
first for CLUE-North, and we hope that it will be a nice success.
Sean Reifschneider (Northern Colorado Hacking Society) and Ed Hill
(Golden Hacking Society) plan on attending to help introduce everyone
to this setting.  Also, Hacking Society tees will be on sale via Sean
Reifschneider.

The goal of the Hacking Society is to foster geek community-building
through the shared experience of hacking. Of course, by "hacking",
I mean the more historic meaning of working on interesting projects
(Jargon File "hack" entry, sense 6). Not the "script kiddies trying to
compromise boxes" meaning which has become what most people think of in
relation to the term.

It's meant to be a sacred place full of positive hacking energy, if you
will.  Hacking by osmosis...

Hacking Society is primarily meant for you to come and work on your own
projects, as opposed to soliciting others to solve your problems (which is
usually more what goes on at an Install Fest or at the main NCLUG
meetings).

More information on Hacking Society, including some ideas for projects to
work on there, can be found at:

Available will be at least one switch/router for ethernet connections,
as well as potentially a WiFi access point to Regis's DHCP network.  Details
will be provided at the day of the event.
