  before everyone heads off for the weekend, i'll just advertise the
first of what i hope are more ottawa linux kernel geek-ups for next
tuesday, may 24.  this will happen after work, 5 pm, at the code
factory downtown, http://thecodefactory.ca/, 246 queen street between
kent and bank, above the green papaya restaurant.

  the code factory officially closes at 5 pm but since i am now a
member, i can be there after hours and let people in, although they'll
need to buzz up to get in.  you don't *need* to drop me a note to tell
me you're thinking of coming, but it might be nice to get an idea of
who is considering dropping by.  if enough people say they'll be
there, i can arrange for a pizza or two to also be present.

  if this takes off, i'll find a place on the net to post ongoing
details of future meetings.  remember that the goal here is to select
some specific kernel feature beforehand as a topic, and discuss that
during the geek-up.  right now, i'm digging my way through kobjects
and the sysfs so i'm just going to assign that as the topic for this
geek-up, and people who want to play along should bring their own
system with a full copy of the kernel source code as we will
definitely be diving into the source.

  i'm going to be working there tuesday afternoon so if no one can
make it, i will just continue working.  i always have work with me so
i'm good no matter what happens.
