We will challenge prejudice that could jeopardise the participation of any person in the community. The Code of Conduct governs how we behave in public or in private whenever the Linux community will be judged by our actions. We expect it to be honoured by everyone who represents the community officially or informally, claims affiliation or participates directly. It applies to activities online or offline. We invite anybody to participate. Our community is open. Please read more about the GTALUG Code of Conduct here: <https://gtalug.org/about/code-of-conduct/>.

TL;DR: the meeting and talk scheduled for last month will happen tomorrow. You will remember that last month's meeting was cancelled because of snow. Before you call GTALUG a bunch of wimps, note that Ryerson closed for snow. It looks as if the talks has been rescheduled for tomorrow. I haven't seen any announcement of this, but it is on our front page <https://gtalug.org/>. | From: hi--- via talk <talk@gtalug.org> | To: announce@gtalug.org | Cc: hi@gtalug.org | Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2019 09:02:47 -0500 (EST) | Subject: [GTALUG] [GTALUG-Announce] GTALUG Meeting Feburary 12th at 7:30pm | <https://gtalug.org/meeting/2019-02/> | | # FPGAs for Fun, Acceleration, and Profit! w/ Chris Tyler | | Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) have moved from being expensive, exotic | prototyping tools to affordable mainstream devices for hardware customization | and acceleration.
