[GRLUG] GRLUG Social Tonight

[Mike Williams]

While we've made lots of progress, the casino project is far from 
finished. You might be at the tail end of the music server one, but then 
at least you can listen to it over the big speakers.

I have some concerns about the casino project. Besides some abysmal 
security practices, I'm concerned about what exactly we are doing here. 
I'm all for mental exercise and building systems to do cool things, but 
we're working for a for-profit enterprise (and an industry that is not 
one of my favorites, although I can probably look the other way for 
that). We're doing quite a bit of software development work, and as near 
as I can tell we're doing it for free. Pro Bono work is fine if a noble 
cause is benefiting from it, but this is a for-profit business. Should 
they be paying us in some way?
