Announcements:
* vBSDcon 2015 is September 11-13 in Reston, VA. There is a CDBUG member
among the speaker list. It's a great regional conference, definitely
plan on attending.
* EuroBSDcon 2015 is October 1-4 in Stockholm, Sweden.
* BSDCon Brazil is October 9-10 in Fortaleza, Brazil.
* The undergrads will be back in town in a few short weeks. It's never
too early to promote CDBUG! There should be a couple of good surprises

Bio:
Former DNS Systems Administrator for the long-defunct BiznessOnline
(previously AlbanyNet). One-part IT nerd, one-part A/V dork.

Changed careers in 2003 when I returned to TV at Capital News 9 (now
Time Warner Cable News) as Graphic Designer and Promotions Producer
(Video Editor).

Still have tried to keep my chops as an 'amateur' sysadmin: Have
maintained one or more colo boxes with former Biz colleagues to serve
our own web/mail/DNS for over a decade.

Just finally completed a custom B.S. in "Broadcast Media and Information
Technology" at Empire State College. Interested in moving back towards
the IT field (or convergence, ie. IPTV), so career suggestions are welcome!
