Initially AOL has volunteered their facilities to hold the sessions.

If anyone is still interested in a users' group, contact Joseph Bui. The training room at my office can be reserved (near DuPont Circle in DC). It can also be reserved for an AOLserver meetup.

While eventually we hope the community will participate to the extent where it doesn't rely on any individual, Initially the session talks will be led by Carl Garland.

Format for AOLSLUG typical Meeting

  • First Hour : Basics/Core

This portion of the meeting will be for beginners/people that are interested in basic topics and should allow some time for question/answer about general AOLserver concepts.

  • Second Hour : Main Meeting
    • Current Events in AOLserver
    • 1-2 talks given by AOLserver community members

These could be either discussion of topics or possibly a demonstration of an AOLserver project that members have created.

    • Wrap-up, general questions
  • Followup festivities (beer optional)

Proposed 1st Meeting Date/Time

Please respond to when would be the best date/time for the first NOVA AOLSLUG meeting. Future meetings will hopefully be held at every month or two depending on community feedback.

Votes for particular day/night of week:

  • Monday night
  • Tuesday night
  • Wednesday night - Carl Garland, Patrick O'Leary, Joseph Bui
  • Thursday night
  • Friday night

Proposed 1st Meeting Agenda

Until we get feedback and volunteers for leading future session the initial first session will consist of the following agenda unless feedback desires different topics:
