Curt-

For the record, this issue has come up before, and has led to long and
merry flame-fests, and actually alienated some people. If I remember
correctly (I think it was less than a decade ago), the consensus of
the people who remained on the listserv was something like this: "We
like Linux and related stuff!"

How distantly-related you can get before losing people's interest
varies by individual, but most of the people on the list have
experience with (and interest in) BSD, Solaris, SunOS,  HP-UX, OSX,
DOS, AIX, IRIX, and/or other worthy operating systems. The average
nlugger has broad interests, and would rather hear someone else give a
presentation about something out in left field, than give their own
presentation on something strictly gnu/linux.

I think your presentation will be very warmly received. Illegitimi non
carborundum,
