fished around for patch for C FTP library off of feathers.acm.uiuc.edu
searched around on feathers for evidence of supposed breakin,
but did not find any
continues to meet at 8:00 PM on Sundays
Distribution Project
didn't meet
will meet next week on Sunday 10:00
got $25 from ACM for writable CD's
It would be useful to be able to get distributions to
the general student body because of the bandwidth limitations
preventing the downloading of ISO's.
will see if RedHat will give us CD's to give out; if not
in large volumes, at least for the ACM library
Is it possible to get a good, new burning for the ACM office?
LimitGuard
emailed some head of CCSO to see if information could
be gotten concerning limitations, etc.
did not meet
will meet during next week, at some time to be determined
and sent to the mailing list
Dreamcast Project

NetBSD port is experiemental (in July, near single-user mode)

Bugfixing
XMMS

can get it to remove all but currently-playing song
WinAmp can remove all songs from the playlist,
and keep playing the current song
Interruption: representatives from NCSA stop by
has interest in working with various SIG's, including SIGUnix,
on projects that would be of interest to the NCSA's
Linux clustering project, and the SIG.
ideas NCSA is interested in (not complete list)
working on network stack for creating high throughput
(might be more appropriate for SigNet)
RPM-updating simultaneously over the nodes of the cluster,
in a fault-tolerant manner (simple ssh, rsh
are insufficient).
bandwidth shaping and throttling (also might be more appropriate
for SigNet)
further information
the Linux cluster group has a non-advertised page; some info there
SIGUnix will dicuss possible projects over the mailing list
