For most of us, tax season is over, and it is time to turn our<br>
attentions to more pleasant things, such as accounting. This month<br>
features two presentations on two fairly different interfaces to<br>
balancing your accounts. One presentation will be a special joint<br>
endeavour by John Kerr and Brent Clements, who will combine forces to<br>
present GnuCash, a graphical double-entry accounting system. Chris<br>
Frey will present ledger (<a href="http://ledger-cli.org" target="_blank">http://ledger-cli.org</a>), an accounting<br>
system that processes a specially formatted text file (!) which<br>
contains all of your transaction data. These presentations will begin<br>
around 7pm (after meeting announcements and recalcitrant audio-visual<br>
equipment).<br>
<br>
We have a FLOSS Fund nomination for this month. After the Heartbleed<br>
bug drama last month, Darcy Casselman nominated the hard-working folks<br>
who develop OpenSSL as this month's nominee. You can read an article<br>
that motivated Darcy at<br>
<a href="http://veridicalsystems.com/blog/of-money-responsibility-and-pride/" target="_blank">http://veridicalsystems.com/blog/of-money-responsibility-and-pride/</a><br>
and you can contribute to our donation at the meeting, by getting in<br>
touch with me, or directly at<br>
<a href="http://www.openssl.org/support/donations.html" target="_blank">http://www.openssl.org/support/donations.html</a> . (You may also make<br>
nominations for future FLOSS Funds, provided that you are not a member<br>
of a mysterious FLOSS Fund Cabal that probably doesn't even exist.)<br>
<br>
Our meeting will be held at the usual location:<br>
<br>
St John's Kitchen<br>
97 Victoria Street North<br>
(at Weber)<br>
Kitchener<br>
<br>
Doors open around 6:30pm. Setup help is greatly appreciated. Learn<br>
