Agenda:

Presentation by Bill Ward: "Drawing with OpenOffice.org"

Most Linux users know that the OpenOffice.org productivity suite can be used as a substitute for Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. But there is a part of OpenOffice that many people underuse, which doesn't exist in Microsoft Office at all: Draw. Bill will go through this powerful utility's main features, showing how it can be used to create flyers and brochures.

Planning & Discussion for LinuxWorld and Linux Picnic

The LinuxWorld Expo and Linux Picnic will be here in a few weeks, and we need to discuss PenLUG's participation.

For LinuxWorld (at the Moscone Center in San Francisco) we will be participating in a "LUG Booth" along with other bay area user groups. We need volunteers to staff that booth. Also, we have free passes available for the exhibits hall from Prentice-Hall publishers.

The annual Linux Picnic is also coming up. Be sure to RSVP for your free food. It will be a lot of fun as it is every year.

Members' Minutes

Members will have an opportunity to take a few minutes to...

• Describe their latest Linux discovery
• Ask questions and get help from other members
• Discuss Linux projects

You can just stand up and talk, or give a short demo or presentation. If you need audio/visual support for your Members' Minute, please contact Bill in advance to arrange for your needs.

Everyone who participates in this section will get a free Prentice-Hall sample book (while supplies last)!
