HI Everybody,

We have a WLUG meeting coming up on Wednesday, April 11th, at 7:00 PM in
the Access Grid room on the WPI campus in Worcester, MA USA.

At this meeting, Andy Stewart will give a presentation on his recent
work with the Delcom USB I/O Development Board.  Part of this work
involves writing a Linux kernel device driver for the board, which will
be discussed in some detail.  This is my first attempt at writing a
Linux device driver.  The hardware is exposed to the user via sysfs.
Reference usbled.c to get an idea of how this driver is coded.

Another part of this work involves hardware add-ons such as an I2C
memory chip and a character LCD display, both of which will be
demonstrated at the meeting.  Yes, we'll see some blinking LEDs, too!

Afterwards, we'll talk about the May meeting, and my hope that we can
have a PGP key signing party at that meeting.  I'm looking for a
volunteer or two to run the May meeting, since I don't know how to
properly run a PGP key signing.  Besides that, I'm hoping to get my
passport back from the US Govt. before that meeting (it is being renewed).

I'll bring these books for the free raffle:
	- The Ruby Way - 2nd Edition, Addison-Wesley
	- Java in a Nutshell, O'Reilly (used)
	- User Mode Linux, Prentice Hall

We should also talk about this summer's WLUG party/BBQ.  If there is
anybody who lives nearby that would like to host the party, please let
me know.  (BTW, what ever happened to the pictures from last year?)

We'll then adjourn to the Tech Pizza restaurant for food, drink, and
good conversation.

See ya later,

Andy
