 *First TechTalk*


 Mike Evans gave his talk 'Say No to Filenames' which was accompanied by
some very good slides that will be put on the website later. This talk
fueled lots of great discussions and conversations amongst nearly all the
members. Mike also showed his proof of concept application and how it
searched for files by tag.


 *Coffee and chat*


 KLUGGERS then broke off for a coffee (good coffee from a cafetière), some
stacks and a chance to mingle.


 *Second Tech Talk*


 Julia gave her talk about virtualization, it's history and how it can be
used. Different virtualization technologies and servers were discussed.


 NEXT LUG MEETING:

The next KLUG meeting will be on Saturday 28th March at a location to be
confirmed. It is planned that the Tech talks at the March meeting will be
more general and consumer based.
