So far we have had one impromptu meeting.  Before Christmas I hope to 
have a San Antonio BSD users group in place, and yes it will have a 
discussion list.  We could make a seperate group (SATBUG), but I think 
that it might be good to make it a SIG of SATLUG.  I think it could be 
very educational to do some in depth comparisons (i.e., iptables and 
pf).  I am doing this from an educational stand point.  Whatever we do I 
do not want to create any kind of fracture in the *nix community.  The 
XCSSA guys and SATLUG get along very well.  Several people actively 
participate in both groups.  I would hope that we could do something 
that will help the entire *nix community.  Let me know your thoughts.

October 9, 11 a.m. till ...  We will host a *nix party at SAC, NTC 140.  
I have several students that need help with installing Linux and making 
different peripherals work.  If any of you have projects that you wish 
to work on, or wish to share, bring them.  We will be showing the entire 
"Lord of the Rings."  If anyone can get door prizes let me know.  So far 
we have a couple sets of the "Hobbit" and the "Lord of the Rings" 
(books) to draw for.
