Hi all, As regards to things I'd be interested in, the forensics talk would be very interesting as would the talk about the iPlayer. Personally I'd like to hear a talk and quick tutorial on how to use gimp (just basic stuff to start with, I'm thinking a quick show of how it can do stuff that MSPaint can do) with later tutorials and a more in-depth talk about how powerful gimp is and how it stacks up against PaintShopPro and Photoshop (these are the two applications I hear about most from windows users) ---- I think my brother would be able to do a GiMp run through as he uses it (I use Photoshop under Wine so could do a similar session on that between the two of us I think we could manage a compare and contrast session) I know Andy has an interest in retro computers, maybe he'd be up for a quick talk/discussion on emulation of the computers we all remember - again on a personal note I'd like to get an emulator of the Amstrad CPC range installed and working. --- Yeah cool idea Amiga anyone :) I also like the idea of a LUG project maybe trying to get Steve's offered computer set up as a Mame station is a good starting point. Other threads have mentioned that some members of the list are more interested in enterprise/business uses of Linux. I am just a home user but would find a talk about how they are or plan to use Linux in the business world very interesting including overviews of how well (or not) the implementation of a Linux based solution went. Finally I'd be very interested in a talk on Apache especially to do with performance tuning.
