Abstract
Alien is a tool developed for the Debian project to convert binary
Debian packages to and from Red Hat, Stampede or Slackware binary
packages. We will investigate how Alien works so that we can better
assess when and how it can help bridge the gaps between the Linux
distributions.

Attendees are invited to gather for dinner prior to the meeting at 6:30
PM at Nick's Roast Beef of Old Philly, 16 South 2nd St, Philadelphia, PA.
