Meeting this Thursday, Nov 20, 2004. See calendar for details. Last meeting had some relatively lively discussion, hopefully we can keep the trend going. Given that we will be punting the LPI exams out, this could help map out training (if people want it), and we could discuss GNU cfengine.
Just to clear up any confusion, you need to send an email to lpi_exams@ovsage.org with the following information: Name (First Last) Valid Email Address LPI Identification Number (you need this to take the exam) Which exams will you be taking? (101R 101D 102 201 or 202) Exam 101 can be done with a RedHat Package Manager (101R) or Debian Package Manager (101D) specialty Which Seating (11:00 or 13:00, or both) in order to write the exam Looks like we will have a little more time to get ready.
We will be hosting an exam on Nov 20 at the Altera offices in Kanata. I know it’s a bit out of the way, but we do have use of the training center there, and it holds about 40 people. Space is limited to that many people. Some details about the location … We are setting up for two seatings, 11:00 and 13:00 For those who use public transit, and are are not familiar with Kanata, the bus route 160 passes along March Road (near the building) on Saturdays octranspo schedule.
Some items came up during the meeting that were not fully addressed, including: the upcoming LPI exams a software tool that I forgot the name of “PGP Trash Troll Delete”. I have some info for all of the above The next set of LPI exams are scheduled for Saturday, November 20, 2004 at Altera in Kanata. We are hoping for two seatings, 11:000 and 13:00 For those who use public transit, and are are not familiar with Kanata, the bus route 160 passes along March Road (near the building) on Saturdays octranspo schedule.
Last meeting, we discussed the potential LPI certification testing, which went ahead. This time around, we will be discussing the next round, as well as the possibility of trying to set up a training day for the exam. We could set up and review the objectives, as well as set up a small network kind of like an installfest, but with the LPI objectives as the goal. This needs some work, but I’m willing to spend a Saturday or a Sunday at it.
