Re: Lua users in California?

[Jim Mellander <jmellander@...>]

Hi:

I'm right up the hill from UCB, at LBL.  I use lua to process netflow
records received from routers and convert the records to events for our
IDS to munch on.  I chose lua for this project (even though I had no
experience in it), as it seemed to offer the performance I needed, along
with the rapid development time, without a steep learning curve.  Would
be happy to chat with you.
