Getting Involved with Open Source

   Hi all,   
   The next LUG meeting is on "The 5W1H of Getting Involved in Open
Source." Our speaker is a hiring manager and open source evangelist at
the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.   
   Please help promote the Feb 8th SGVLUG meeting. It is a terrific
opportunity to have a conversation about Open Source, whether it's
software or hardware projects. 

   It would be great to bring in a diverse audience of evangelists,
contributors, and just people who have heard about open source and
want to become more involved. This would make a great Meetup for
students or new coders or documentarians. 

   Since it will be at OpenX, we need to provide a list of names to
security. Please either RSVP on Meetup or RSVP with me. If you're new
to OpenX, please check out the Meetup for parking instructions.

   TOPIC: The 5W1H of Getting Involved in Open Source
    SPEAKER: Paul Ramirez

   Abstract
   Open source is vital towards our future in technology development
and is being promoted across government institutions and within the
private sector. In this talk he will cover the who, what, where, why,
and how’s of open source based on his life experience. This talk
will seek to inform and recruit the audience to engage and contribute
in open source by providing answers to the simple questions. Together
we will discuss lowering the barrier to entry into the open source
world. And if you’re already contributing to open source then we
will share life experiences and camaraderie and plans to infect more
people with the open source bug.  
   Bio    Mr. Paul Ramirez has worked at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory
(JPL) for the past 17 years and is currently a group supervisor (i.e.
hiring manager) for the Science Data Systems Operations Engineering
and Computer Science for Data Intensive Applications groups. He holds
a BS in Computer Science from Cal Poly Pomona and an MS in Computer
Science from the University of Southern California. Mr. Ramirez has
developed, advocated, and help drive policy for Open Source at NASA.
Mr. Ramirez has been involved with the Apache Software Foundation as a
committer and mentor.
