We had a really good meeting. We had 9 people in attendance and had some really informative demonstrations and discussions:

  • Arduino Based/Thermometer – Gary Melvin  gave a great presentation and demo of his  Arduino/LM34 web thermometer project.  There was a lot of interest and plenty of questions.
  • Polyglot vs Monolingual Programmers – Calvin Schultz gave a great discussion on polyglot vs monolingual programmers . Ever wonder what its like to have more then one programming tool in your toolkit, wonder no further because Calvin gave a great discussion. The discussion was  eye-opening for those considering enhancing their  programming skills in the world of F/OSS.

It was a fun and informative meeting. We all had a great time. Thanks Gary and Peter for your help and demonstrations!

We had a very good turn-out in spite this being the last official summer meeting of the year. We had 12 attend with several of these being first time visitors.

  • State Machine Programming– Gary Melvin gave  a great presentation on programing state-machines. This was very interesting particularly to those working on Arduino and Raspberry Pi projects in the group.
  • EMC2 Discussion and Demo – John Jamont gave  n informative presentation on configuring and running EMC2 ( Linux CNC). The topic was very interesting to the group, particularly for those that have been toying around with the idea of Linux controlled home machine tools
  • Linux System Monitoring Tools (Part 3) – Sam Williams –finished his discussion on system monitoring tools for Linux.

It was a fun and informative meeting. We all had a great time. Thanks Gary and John for your help and demonstrations!
