20 Years of NYC*BUG and Can We Handle 20 More?
George Rosamond

2024-04-03 @ 18:45 EDT (22:45 UTC) - NYU Tandon Engineering Building
(new), 370 Jay St, 7th Floor kitchen area, Brooklyn (directly across Jay
St from National Grid office). Closest subway exits in order are Jay St
- MetroTech Station (A, C, R, & F Trains) Borough Hall (4 & 5 Trains).

***Notice: You should RSVP for this meeting at rsvp AT lists.nycbug.org.
You should receive an autoresponse email. Your email address is
sufficient verification for entry.***

The New York City *BSD User Group officially launched at Linux World
Expo on January 2004 with a packed birds-of-a-feather session. The first
meeting was held on February 4th.

Several of us starting pulling together the group in December 2003, and
carefully planned for the events.

That makes January 2024 the official 20th anniversary of NYC*BUG, which
is a long time in user-group years.

Like every other organization, NYC*BUG's history isn't a simple linear
process. There were ebbs and flows, some due to our own decisions and
activities, others due to the larger world.

But we are still operating, with regular monthly meetings after the
pandemic, and still constantly assessing and reassessing what we're
doing and where we're going.

This isn't going to be a straight-forward presentation. Rather, the
input from everyone who experienced the trajectory at any moment is
vital for drawing a full picture. That input will provide important
ingredients for the more polished version of this presentation at BSDCan
May 31 through June 1st.

We look forward to input from those who have been part of this journey.

Hopefully the outcome will be a rich image of the history.

George Rosamond is a founder and long-time admin@ member of NYC*BUG.
He's the co-founder and CTO of ClearOPS, a privacy and security
technology startup. A sysadmin by trade with citizenship in BSD Unix
land, his area of interest and expertise lies with privacy-enhancing
technologies, most importantly with the Tor Project. He thrives on
creating and designing unorthodox solutions to ordinary problems, but so
do most other people in the *BSD community.

Offsite Participation: We plan to stream via NYC*BUG Website unless the
speaker requests otherwise. Q&A will be via IRC on Libera.chat channel

Demystify ZFS Replication With a Safe and Powerful Approach, by Daniel J. Bell
2024-05-01 @ 18:45 EDT (22:45 UTC) - NYU Tandon Engineering Building (new), 370 Jay St, 7th Floor kitchen area, Brooklyn (directly across Jay St from National Grid office). Closest subway exits in order are Jay St - MetroTech Station (A, C, R, & F Trains) Borough Hall (4 & 5 Trains).

Notice: You should RSVP for this meeting at rsvp AT lists.nycbug.org. You should receive an autoresponse email. Your email address is sufficient verification for entry.
ZFS is theoretically a powerhouse for data protection and performance, but only if you can dodge its many traps. I'll demonstrate the common ZFS pitfalls and their solutions, along with practical strategies to simplify and scale your backups. I'll also introduce Zelta, a toolkit of management scripts built on Unix fundamentals designed to help you master ZFS with finesse.
