It appears that my message my have landed in a number of your spam boxes 
for one reason or another. So I'm sending this message again. Apologies 
if you've already received the following email.
We can have a "fun" chat about Spamassassin, DKIM and SPF at the meeting 
at the end of the month ;)

Hey all!

The next ScotLUG meeting will be on Thursday 28th January at the usual 
Spot, the Electron Club in the CCA. We should be kicking around the 
Electron Club around 7:00PM.

This month we've got a talk by Fred Crowson, but unfortunately no axes 
will be wielded due to the lack of forests in Central Glasgow to provide 
plausible deniability as a lumberjack...

BSD is Dead! or future archeology...installing OpenBSD 5.9-beta

Fred will walk us through a brief history of the *BSD family of 
operating systems, followed by a practical session of installing OpenBSD 
on a USB flash drive to make a bootable OpenBSD system that can be run 
from the pendrive.

For the practical session, if people could bring a laptop with a usb 
port that can be booted from.

Fred will have some USB pendrives that can be used - but if people have 
their own pendrives that are at least 2Gb (you can use a 1 Gb but that 
is a bit more complex :~]) then that would be good.

We will be adjourning to a local bar afterwards, the exact location to 
be confirmed as we need to check on availability of space at the CCA 
Bar.

As always, for more information – you can visit the website at 
www.scotlug.org.uk.

Hope to see you all there!
