We are please to announce the founding of a new Linux User Group for the Herzlia Pituch area: Herzelinux.
Much like its older brothers Haifux and Telux and similar other Linux User Groups around the world, in each meeting one of the club regular members or a guest gives an informal lecture or a talk about an interesting topic related to development in and for Linux and Open Source in general.
Herzelinux focuses in serving the local community of professional Linux developers and hobbyists working in hi-tech companies in the Silicon Wadi area of Herzelia Pituch. Accordingly, the meeting place is in walking distance from most Hi Tech companies in the area and the topics converge towards advanced topics of interest mainly to developers and system administrators.
Our first meet up will be held at Thursday, July 17, 2008 where Gilad Ben-Yossef will give a talk entitled: “Splice, Tee and Vmsplice: zero copy in the Linux kernel”.
Attendance is free, there is no need to pre-register, parking and light snacks and coffee are provided by Hi-Tech College and we welcome each and anyone who is interested in attending.
Wondering when is the next meet up and what it is about? check the schedule.
Want to give a talk in an upcoming meeting? let us know!
See you there!

Hi there,
We just added a new section to the site: lectures, where we’ll post the slides of technical lectures given at various conferences, events and panels. Already posted are the slides for two lectures: one about different approaches to real time with Linux and another about Open Source virtualization solutions, so go check them out.
Also in the news, slides for both the Advanced Embedded Linux course and the Linux Internals course have been posted.
In addition, slides and syllabus for a new course, Linux Network Internals, which is still in development, has been posted and we’d be very glad to receive your feedback and suggestions.
And as a desert, we’ve added the events from the Haifux meeting calender to the schedule section on the site. Got any other calender we think we should be tracking? let us know.
Have a great day,
