- Bye bye Tipp Inn
Well, the Tipperary Inn is closing it's doors yet again. That means we are
lookin for a place to meet again. *sigh*
Well, I am lazy and want to keep it closer to downtown or uptown. I know
there are quite a few poeple who live up north, so I am nt ruing it out.
Whatever we pick I am going to try and make it easier to get to than the
Tipp was. I'll let you know. Stay tuned. Join the mailing list, and check
back here.

- April Meeting
woops.... yes we had one, but I forgot to update the site.
March 13, 2009
- March Meeting
Well, I think the meeting went well. We had the usual gnews and a
presentation from myself (MadHat) on a new tool. The new meeting location
(the Tipperary Inn) seems to be going over well. We had a couple of new
members, and a few old timers show up, as well as everyone else. Overall
we had about 12 people. The only issue thus far is that they won't split
the tab.
Talk of the Pub Crawl coming up went well. Remember that is coming up on
March 26. We are working to finalize the TShirts. I should have something on
the site soon about it.
Speaking of the site, it has been updated, so check that shit out. The gnews
and presentation slides are up.
The next meetign is April 8, 2009 and we will have a presentation from
"Jean-Claud AskMe" on asterisk.
March 6, 2009
- Next Meeting, Pub Crawl & Facebook
Well, the next meeting is scheduled for next Wednesday the 11th. We will
be meeting at the Tipperary Inn again, upstairs. They keep saying they
will add us to their calendar, but it has not happened yet.
I announced to the mailing list today that we will be starting monthly
Pub Crawls. Our first one will be in Uptown, starting at the Idle Rich.
They will be heald the last Thursday of each month. Come and join in the
drinking and what should prove to be interesting discussions.
Lastly, I created a DC214 Facebook group. This is really to have an easy
way to see when the next meeting is and who is speaking. We will have a
speaker this month, so stay tuned.

- Tonight's Meeting
I had to stay home with the kiddo tonight, but WT took my place at the meeting. If we can't get a sitter we'll end up splitting duty.
The report thus far is that the Tipperary Inn is a good location. I think we will go ahead and meet there next month as well. I will get WT to confirm tonight that those who made it agree, and if so will make the reservation for next month.
We are now looking for presenters for the next few months. WT and I are working on an idea we had, but it won't be ready right away. If you have an idea about any aspect of information security or design manipulation (making something work other than the way it was designed to work. code issues, design flaws, bad configurations, etc...) or anything really interesting let Isac (piis8(at)yahoo(dot)com) and/or myself know.
Feb 4, 2009
- DC214 is in a holding patern.
We are looking for a new location to meet and working on how we want to take the group. MadHat and PiIs8 (Isac) are looking for speakers and suggestions on how to revive this beast. Let us know. In the mean time, join the mailing list or silc channel. Neither is all that busy.

Another great meeting. We had another round table, but this time it worked. We discussed Cryptography. We covered what most of the basics, common algorithms, symmetric vs asymmetric, one way hashes, block vs stream ciphers, and more. Links to notes used as well as some other good reading on crypto can be found in the media section of the website.
February 12, 2004 - February Meeting
Great meeting this month. We had Simple Nomad do an updated talk on Cover Communications. I say updated because it was part of his talk from last years Black Hat talk, but with new information about nCovert2. We also recorded the presentation, so expect to see it available in the Media section soon along with the slides.
See you next month.
January 14, 2004 - January Meeting
