et
al.
The tutorial or basic session this month, will again be a quick
update of the work planned on our web/mail server, Bock. We need to
upgrade thru 2 major releases of the *Debian OS*. What needs to be
considered and planned in OUR particular case. But also, what does the
discipline of doing this planning show all of our members how to plan such
an effort on their own systems? IE systems that may be MULTI-USER?
...systems that should have high availability & high uptime? IE you can
NOT just "be down" until this "kinda works"!
Last month we outlined some of the work we planned for updating
BOCK ( our web and mail server ).
This will be about the next phase in our transition from Debian 10
to Debian 11 base line.

*MAIN* Topic: *The History of Computing since 1968*.
Presenter: *Scott Granneman*

Scott's going to break it down into decades.
In January, Ed Howland told us about the "History of The Unix
Shell". So, why talk about all that old stuff? Well, all historians
will point out that you want to know the history to understand "how we got
here." What were the problems that we were trying to solve? We are
living with the solutions...and the new problems caused by those solutions,
so we should understand what was being attempted.
So, Scott will give us the decade by decade description of the
important events & inventions in computing. And you can understand what
they have influenced in your problems today.
Back then, computers ran on punch cards and reel-to-reel tape.
A five megabyte hard drive was the size of today's dishwasher.
Mini-computers were the size of a deep freeze. Things changed.
Scott is a long time member and frequent presenter of SLUUG. He
is also the author of the O'Reilly book, ..."The Linux Phrase Book".
