UUASC

UNIX Users Association of Southern California


UUASC Orange County Chapter

Meeting Schedule

UUASC OC Chapter meetings are currently in hiatus pending new leadership. Without persons actively arranging meetings, they don't happen. Please consider helping.

Meetings are the second Monday of each month from 7 to 9 pm. See location and map below. Generally, meetings should include a technical presentation on a hardware or software topic of current interest to the UNIX community and a round-table discussion of current topics of interest to the group. We are always looking for interesting presentations and your suggestions are most welcome.

When there is a meeting, many members gather afterwards at the Pilsner Room for refreshments. It's just across the street.


Meeting Location

Oracle Corporation
17901 Von Karman Avenue, Irvine

Exit the San Diego Freeway (I-405) at MacArthur, turn right (away from the airport) to the signal at Main Street (the first cross-street), turn right to Gilette (the second signal on Main Street), turn right on Gilette, go one-half block. From here, turn right into the parking structure at McCormick and Schmick's (Pilsner Room) OR turn left near the Embassy Suites and enter the parking structure between the Oracle building and the hotel. Walk to the Oracle building, take elevator to 8th floor.

At M&S, take a ticket when entering the garage but don't be concerned - no one will be there to collect money after 10 pm when the party ends, so you can exit for free. (If the attendant stays late, the Pilsner Room will validate parking.) At the Oracle / Embassy Suites garage, there does not appear to be any way to avoid the parking fee.

Some other nearby garages may become free to park earlier than M&S but you may need to walk a block or two. If you have success with that strategy, please let us know.
