Intro to Linux, SQLPage

Meeting Date

Jason Paul will run through a five minute "Introduction to Linux" talk he is preparing. There will be plenty of time for feedback and discussion afterwards.

Anton Avramov and project founder Ophir Lojkine will discuss SQLPage, a web templating engine that allows you to safely define webpages using only SQL queries. Ophir will give us a prerecorded introduction to the software, and then Anton will go through some demonstrations and take questions.

We are continuing the dinner meetup tradition at McCabe's Irish Pub and Grill in Waterloo, starting at 7pm. Note that this is the Waterloo location of McCabe's; the Kitchener location is out of business and apparently KWLUG members really want Irish pub food? This restaurant meetup is on a Monday.

This is a supplementary informal meeting; we will still hold virtual meetings for technical topics.
