<br>

=== Practical Android Development - An Introduction ===<br>
<br>

PIs<br>
as well as basic knowledge on where to start and how to design your application<br>
s.<br>
<br>

Oliver Gorwits:<br>
<br>
"conntrack, Netfilter, NetFlow and NAT under Linux"<br>
<br>
Large scale NAT (up to thousands of clients) is very possible with<br>
Linux, but often there will be an associated requirement to monitor<br>
user activity for policy compliance purposes. In this talk I'll show<br>
how we use the built-in tools Linux offers within its Netfilter<br>
subsystem, along with some software we developed to export NetFlow<br>
traffic analysis data.<br>
<br>
Lightning talks:<br>
<br>
Tom Hukins: "Do Repeat Yourself. Sometimes." - a talk Tom gave at a recent LPW<br>
meeting: <a href="http://conferences.yapceurope.org/lpw2009/talk/2458" target="_blank">http://conferences.yapceurope.org/lpw2009/talk/2458</a><br>
<br>
Colin Bradford: HTTP::Async - a talk on using the HTTP::Async module for parall<br>
el<br>
HTTP requests: <a href="http://search.cpan.org/~evdb/HTTP-Async-0.09/lib/HTTP/Async.pm" target="_blank">http://search.cpan.org/~evdb/HTTP-Async-0.09/lib/HTTP/Async.pm</a><br>
<br>
Thanks to all who are giving talks for their time and effort. I'm certainly<br>
looking forward to hearing them.<br>
<br>
Finally, remember to arrive at the OU for 7pm on Tuesday 9th of February.<br>
<br>
Here's how to find us:<br>
First, find the OU campus as described at<br>
<a href="http://www3.open.ac.uk/contact/locations.aspx" target="_blank">http://www3.open.ac.uk/contact/locations.aspx</a><br>
<br>
Enter the campus (signposted Open University, not Open University East),<br>
via Brickhill Street (V10).<br>
<br>
Take the middle lane past Security (on the left), through the barriers, and<br>
then turn right on to Ring Road East.<br>
<br>
Ahead you will see the road narrows to single lane on your side of the<br>
road, where there are no entry signs. Just prior to this is the<br>
entrance to a car park on the left (marked Inner East Parking on the<br>
campus map). Take this left turn and head to the top left (North West<br>
on the campus map) of the car park.<br>
<br>
The meeting is in the south east section of the Venables Building,<br>
nearest the Inner East Parking on the campus map.<br>
<br>
Take the path (marked in orange on the campus map) west from the car park<br>
toward the centre of campus.<br>
<br>
Take a right under an archway in to the courtyard area bound by Venables<br>
South, East, and South East, keeping right (heading North East on the campus<br>
map), behind the building section marked South East.<br>
<br>
You will find a double door on your right, which is Entrance G at the<br>
South East section of Venables Building.<br>
<br>
We'll see you there, as these are usually access controlled doors, so you<br>
will probably need to be let in.<br>
<br>
If you haven't attended one of our meetings at the OU before, you might<br>
want to ask for someone's phone number in case you have trouble finding<br>
us. If you need a lift to the meeting, please ask our mailing list or<br>
IRC channel (see <a href="http://miltonkeynes.pm.org/" target="_blank">http://miltonkeynes.pm.org/</a> for details).<br>
<br>
See you on the 9th.<br>
<br>
