Hi Marc,

Shelley forwarded your message below. I've been working with some of the
regional user groups to offer a LinuxWorld conference discount to their
members, and would like to do something similar with NYCBUG.

I have put together a short message that you can send to your members via
e-mail. This message includes details on your BOF, the conference program
and how they can take advantage of the user group discount. Let me know
what you think of the message below.

Thanks Marc, and happy holidays!

Kind regards,
Beth

The New York City BSD Users Group will host its first meeting at LinuxWorld
Conference & Expo, which is returning to New York City January 20-23, 2004.
We'll be raising awareness for BSD and talking tech during our Birds of a
Feather session. Join us at the Javits Center on Thursday, January 22 at
5:45 p.m. We may have cookies and other good stuff -- so come on down!

NYCBUG has also partnered with IDG World Expo, the show management company
that produces LinuxWorld, to offer a special LinuxWorld conference discount
to NYCBUG members. Register online at www.linuxworldexpo.com with the
priority code D-LUG2 to receive 15% off all LinuxWorld conference packages.
This offer expires on Friday, January 9, 2004.

Register with your priority code TODAY to take advantage of LinuxWorld???s
comprehensive educational program, which features:

* Dozens of sessions spread across eight separate conference tracks: Linux
in Business: Management and Deployment; Network Linux: Real SysAdmin from
the Trenches; Security Issues; Software Developer Issues; Emerging
Technologies; Application Development/Standards; Kernel/Cluster Updates;
and Linux in Government.

*  New Hands-on Labs for those who want to bring in their laptops for
in-depth, hands-on training on topics such as: Managing a Mixed Linux and
Windows Environment; Getting Up and Running with Apache 2.0 on Linux;
Python Network Programming; and Building a Portable Application with the
LSB.

* Half-day tutorials that provide three hours of power training on: Linux
System Administration; Samba Administration; Beowulf Clusters; Securing
Linux/Unix Systems; and Deploying Linux on the Desktop Using LTSP.

Your LinuxWorld conference pass will also give you access to the LinuxWorld
exhibit floor, keynotes, feature presentations, Birds-of-a-Feather meetings
and much more. To learn more about what???s on tap for LinuxWorld next month,
visit www.linuxworldexpo.com.

(PLEASE NOTE: This offer is valid for new registrations only. This offer
may not be redeemed for cash or used in conjunction with any other offer.
All registrations are non-refundable and non-transferable. No one under 12
years of age will be permitted on the expo floor. Registrants between 12
