 This month we welcome Brent Saner, who will be doing a presentation on
 OpenWrt. OpenWrt (http://www.openwrt.org) is an extensible, flexible, and
 lightweight Linux distro that gives a $40 router/AP the functionality of a
 $400 network appliance.

 Topics mentioned include installation, security/networking benefits, and
 configuration. This is an interactive talk, so bring a wi-fi enabled laptop
 to join in the fun!

 BONUS: April Fools' tie-in!


 The meeting will take place from 7-9pm at:

         University of the Sciences in Philadelphia (USP)
         Griffith Hall C
         600 South 43rd Street
         Philadelphia, PA 19104-4495

 USP is located in University City.  Driving directions are
 available at <http://www.phillylinux.org/locations/usp.html>, or
 <http://www.usip.edu/directions/>, both of which have an aerial
 view of the campus buildings.  USP is also easily accessible by
 public transportation.

 There will be an open Question & Answer session at 7PM, prior to
 the main presentation at 8PM.  This is an open meeting; all are
 welcome, and encouraged to attend.

 Usually, a number of members get together after the meeting at a
 nearby restaurant for food and perhaps a beer or two.  Come join
 the camaraderie!
