Subject: [svlug-announce] SVLUG March 2nd meeting: Scalix Server
To: svlug-announce at lists.svlug.org


We're pleased to announce the next meeting of the
Silicon Valley Linux Users Group! ( http://www.svlug.org/ )


WHAT:

  Scalix Server

WHEN:

  Wednesday, March 2, 2005,
  7pm-9pm or so.

WHO:

  Steve Martensen
  Senior Messaging Specialist, Scalix Corporation

BACKGROUND:

  Scalix produces a Linux e-mail server that supports shared
  scheduling and advanced e-mail features, delivering desktop-grade
  productivity to users running Outlook and/or popular browsers such as
  Mozilla, Firefox, and Internet Explorer.  Scalix's messaging server can
  run side by side with both mainstream proprietary systems, such as
  Microsoft Exchange, and open source applications, bridging the two
  worlds and integrating with a company's existing IT infrastructure.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER:

  Steve Martensen is Senior Messaging Specialist at Scalix.  He has been
  in the messaging industry since 1991, first working for Lotus
  Development on cc:Mail, then on to Lotus Notes, then focusing for
  several years on messaging migration, and now at Scalix for the past
  two years.  He wrote and developed the Exchange to Scalix migration
  process.

WHERE:

  Cisco Building 9 in Cisco's "Vineyards Conference Center".
  This is at Cisco Systems' East Tasman campus in North San Jose.

  Usually we have only half of the conference center so you'll be directed
  right or left once inside to the side where the meeting is.  Directions on
  how to get there are listed at:

    http://www.svlug.org/directions/cisco-9.shtml

  We've tried our very best for these directions to be accurate.  If you
  have any improvements to make, please let our Web Team know!
  web-team at svlug.org

NOTES:

  If you take transit, be aware that almost everything has changed recently.
  The VTA light rail extension to Alum Rock is open now.  And the
  VTA 180 Express buses from Fremont BART now stop at VTA's Great Mall
  light rail station, making the transit trek from the East Bay easier
  than before.  Other bus routes and schedules have also changed recently.
  SVLUG's transit directions have been updated:

    http://www.svlug.org/directions/cisco-9-transit.shtml

  If you arrive with the peak of the crowd, there may be a small line
  at the sign-in table, where Cisco's security will ask you to sign in.
  (The facility is Cisco's private conference center which is not usually
  available for public meetings.  SVLUG appreciates being given the rare
  privilege to meet here!)

  After the speakers end their presentation there is usually a Q&A session,
  time for job seekers and employers/recruiters to meet, and door prizes if
  any are provided to SVLUG.  When the meeting is over people are encouraged
  to chat a bit, but also to exit the building so Cisco can lock up.  Don't
  worry, a lot of us go to dinner afterward so there's plenty of time to chat
  outdoors or offsite.


We look forward to seeing you there!

If you just can't get enough, a smaller group usually goes to a local
restaurant/diner after the meeting.  We'll announce the restaurant
selection at the meeting.
