The January 2009 meeting of Washington DC Linux user group will take
place on Wednesday, January 21 at 7pm.

Joe Klein will talk about using, hacking and securing IPv6, the upcoming new
version of the IP protocol. He will cover the basics and rationale for IPv6,
and the implementation issues. Because of significant design changes, IPv6
introduces its own set of security issues: Joe will discuss pitfalls to
avoid, and how to leverage new IPv6 features for a better, more secure
networking.

The meeting location is our usual 2025 M street, NW in downtown DC.
There will be signs in front of the building. The location is within 3
nearby Metro stops, both on the red (Dupont, Farragut North) and
blue/orange (Farragut West, Foggy Bottom [a bit of a hike]) lines.

Parking in the area is available for approximately $5; there's even
parking in the building itself. Street parking is free after 6:30pm,
but scarce. There's a parking lot at 23rd St. between M and L that is
not enforced after 7pm (people have successfully parked there for
years---no one we know was ticketed or towed yet, but it could happen).

The meeting dates for 2009 are: Feb 18, Mar 18, Apr 15, May 20, Jun 17, Jul
15, Aug 19, Sep 16, Oct 21, Nov 18 and Dec 16.
