<div>WPLUG will have a General User Meeting and presentation on Saturday, November 14, 2015 starting at 3:00pm at [[HackPittsburgh]]. Elections for the Board of Directors will be held.<br />
<br />
== Schedule for the Day ==<br />
3:00pm - Doors open, set up<br/><br />
3:15pm - Business Meeting starts, election<br/><br />
3:30pm - Featured presentation<br/><br />
5:00pm - Meeting ends, everyone out.<br />
<br />
== Election ==<br />
At this meeting, we will elect the WPLUG Board of Directors for 2015-2016.<br />
<br />
Votes may be cast by mail or in person at the meeting. Your vote must be received before the polls close to be counted, so show up by 3:00pm to be sure you get to cast yours.<br />
<br />
The ballot for this election has been e-mailed to the membership and [[Media:2015_11_WPLUG_Ballot.pdf | is available as a PDF]] on the wiki. Blank ballots will also be available at the meeting. Detailed instructions for voting are given at [[Election Instructions]].<br />

My focus for 2015-2016 is the presentations at WPLUG meetings. By recruiting speakers well in advance, and focusing on quality, we can have a program to promote and build the organization. We have seen a continuing drop in attendance, and I believe that having pre-announced talks on cool topics by great speakers is the way to reverse this. I base this on past experience; for example, between December 2004 and June 2005, we had talks on the following subjects: DocBook, Kernel Configuration, User-Mode Linux, RPMs, SysAdmin Basics, Managing an Open Source Project, Linux in Mission-Critical Applications, Subversion, MythTV, and Regular Expressions. Attendance was much stronger then, and we can get there again. I will put my energy into reaching out to potential speakers using my network and others I know through the Ohio LinuxFest and WPLUG's past.<br />
<br />
==== John Lewis ====<br />
<br />
I have improved WPLUG dramatically since I started my term as Vice Chair. I sponsored WPLUG's move to HackPGH and lobbied HackPGH at every Members meeting to make sure that our club doesn't get ignored. I booked the speakers. I got WPLUG acknowledged at Pittsburgh Code and Supply. I refocused the Linux Users Group on the thing that attracts people to it, which is aiding people in the use of GNU/Linux. Doing my next term we are going to make sure we can take membership payments on line using USD and BTC, and get a VoIP system up and running with the stretch goal of finally incorporating. Vote for me because I revitalized the organization.<br />
<br />
==== Joseph Prostko ====<br />
<br />
To be added.<br />
<br />
==== Justin Smith ====<br />
<br />
I'm running because I want to make WPLUG a more welcoming organization. There are some in the Linux community who feel it's acceptable to express the same sort of condescending arrogance that popular figures such as Linus Torvalds espouse. It isn't. That attitude has damaged our reputation to such a degree that many of our long-term members/attendees now want little to do with us.<br />
<br />
While I think we can all appreciate some good-natured teasing, such as the Vim vs Emacs holy wars, we need people on the board who can invite participation from users of all walks of life, and I have a record of doing just that.<br />
<br />
The year before last, I was chairman of the board. I helped arrange for several meetings that were particularly successful, such as a talk about Blender at Pittsburgh Filmmakers that was widely attended - not just by WPLUG regulars, but by people who hadn't had prior exposure to open source software.<br />
<br />
I hope to be a positive influence by arranging for similar such events and encouraging WPLUG's participation in open source projects. I will work against any individuals who attempt to tear down our community.<br />

<div>It's that time of year again! WPLUG's 14th annual Open Source Picnic will take place in [[North_Park#Babble_Brook_Shelter|North Park]] on August 8, 2015 from 1:00-6:00 p.m. In the spirit of open source collaboration, we invite everyone to help make our picnic a success by bringing food, inviting people, and organizing activities for the day. Bring your friends! Invite the whole family! <br />
<br />
(That's our only rule for the day, incidentally: everything must be family-friendly. No booze; nothing scandalous.)<br />
<br />
The more people participate, the more successful we'll be. If you'd like to pitch in, add your name to one of the lists below. Be sure to RSVP for your entire party (including guests) at [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/wplug-summer-picnic-2015-tickets-17863803116 Eventbrite]. You need to do this even if you've signed up below.<br />
<br />
== Setup ==<br />
Hanging signs, setting up pic-a-nic tables, and chasing away pesky critters. Please show up at 12:30.<br />

'''Speaker:''' Charles Butler<br />
<br />
'''Topic:''' Livestreaming Tools<br />
<br />
Its a common misconception that Linux is not robust enough to be a full fledged media editing machine. I've spent quite a while sifting through the tools and putting together an amateur studio. I'll be sharing my insight into the software, hardware, and services that will expedite your endeavours to be a content creator on the Linux Desktop.<br />
<br />
We will be covering audio production, distribution, and the hardware to get you started with your own in-house audio workshop. We will also briefly touch the subject of Video content production, and distribution mediums as well. <br />
<br />
