Meeting Notes

• pre-meeting serber room observations from User:Rsk
  • mystery proliant box in our rack?! what secrets could it hold?
  • Escape from ECE is a 2024 American independent action film co-written, co-scored and directed by VTLUUG. The film, set in the near-future world of late 2024 early 2025, concerns a key-locked WHIT7XX Antenna Laboratory, which is barring members of the LUUG from the club's sole boxen. ECE IT is hijacked by anti-LUUGvernment insurgents who plan to entirely sunset the use of the walled server room. VTLUUG members are given just ??? months to go in and migrate to alternate colocation, after which, if successful, they will be free to hack infra to their heart's content.
