Cross Site Scripting is the #1 form of attack used in the web world
today. The attack vector usually comes in the form of some sort of
enticement in a forum posting with a bogus link, or a bogus email which
fools the victim into thinking they're doing something to protect
themselves (i.e. changing their online banking password, etc.).

Cross Site Forgery is in the Top 10 but is insidious in that the
victim is the website. This form of attack hijacks valid user
credentials and, unknown to the user, performs actions in their name
which benefit the attacker.

Upcomming talks:

Dec 8: Linux in your pocket
Jan 12: Roger to talk about GNUplot

A possible speaker approahced us about talking about IPv6 but we agreed that the topic he was proposing was too code-heavy. Kyle will contact the speaker and inquire about a more entry-level talk.

According to the NBLUG Bylaws we should have held an election on the first meeting following the Daylight Saving Time change. I believe we missed this one so we'll have to sort out an election in the near term. Open question - Kyle, do you want to send out a request for nominations prior to the December meeting or should we defer to January?

Linux is everywhere these days, including in devices many non-Linux users carry around with them every day: smartphones. In this talk Kyle and Aaron will discuss two Linux smartphone platforms: Android and Maemo5 and talk specifically about the G1 and Nokia N900 devices.

Upcoming talks:
Jan 12: Roger to talk about GNUplot
Feb 9: Kyle to to talk about network troubleshooting
March 9: The speaker who approached us about talking about IPv6 (Owen DeLong) has agreed to prepare an entry-level IPv6 talk that may be given in either March or April.
April 13: Kyle is also in contact with a potential speaker for April depending on their availability.

According to the NBLUG Bylaws we should have held an election on the first meeting following the Daylight Saving Time change. Because we missed this (more than likely my bad) Kyle verbally announced that nominations are open for a January 12th election during the December NBLUG general meeting. Kyle will send out an E-Mail to the talk list to state that nominations are now open.

At 23 years, gnuplot is one of the oldest free and open
source programs out in the wild world. It runs anywhere and
everywhere. It's an interactive, text-based plotting program that's
quite easy to use, and yet can produce surprisingly complex plots.
Many features of gnuplot are shown in a live demo.
