Glenn Benett, a WordPress expert, runs Happenings , IGroups and has many websites using WordPress. The presentation will run from 1:00pm to 4:30pm. Refreshments will be available.

The juju presentation by Clint Byrum went very well. It was good to learn about how Ubuntu is making headway and creating software to easily manage cloud servers. It is well apparent Ubuntu is taking the lead for all Linux distributions to follow. Clint's presentation was well delivered, to the point and concise. Follow up questions and answers after was great. Many from the Ventura PHP Developers Group were there, SBLUG and various close communities.
