The Irvine Underground meeting for November gathered on the 11th, 8PM
at Extreme Pizza bringing a record number crowd for the month of
November. Everyone started gathering at 7:30, ordered their food and
drinks and took their seats.
Introductions and announcements took place while the guest speaker
readied for the evenings talk. The VOIP team will be meeting this
month, send Lei a private message on the forum asking for more
information.
There will also be a poker night set for the group, this is a time
where you can come and get to know each other in a fun environment,
learn the game or come play as a pro. Watch the forums for more
information on this event.
Welcome to our newest executive member, Wiggy. He has always been
around helping with the group and giving feedback, most recently he
has showed interest in helping out with the group. Anyone interested
in getting involved with IVU should talk to Freaky, Bartender or
Lei.
Tacitus interviewed the creator of proxify.com. Proxify is a HTML
based proxy for web sites which allows users to both hide their
information from the destinatoin site as well as hide their
destination from their local LAN.
This lead to proxify.com being banned by many of the "Net Nanny"
type programs though, limiting its usefulness. The interview lasted
about 45 minutes and the audience had many questions pertaining to
the security and privacy policies.
Proxify.com is a paid service, but the interview concluded with the
offer of many free accounts to IVU members. To obtain an account
email freaky@irvineunderground.org
Wiggy graciously donated a brand new digital satellite receiver box
to be raffled off as this months prize. More information on the sat
box can be found at pansatdirect.net.
All raffle ticket money went to donations for the group for future
projects, events and costs. Last month we were able to obtain new A/V
hardware, a prime example of the use with the donated raffle money.
Special thanks to everyone who came to the meeting and those who made
the meeting possible. Audio/Video was corresponded and conducted by
DaMan, video of last months talk with Phil Zimmerman is available
online, visit October 2005 minutes page for more information.
