I'd really like to learn more about this topic. We do have a couple of topics in the queue though. Here's the lineup:

- Being Productive With Linux (Beginner)
- Developing on Linux (Beginner)

Perhaps we can fit a security presentation in after the development discussion?! I'd really like to break a security discussion into a long, beginner-level discussion, and a short advanced-level discussion if possible. For example, the beginner level discussion could address things like controlling daemons and firewalling, and the advanced discussion could hit on topics like using LD_PRELOAD to hijack executables.

This could even be a section of each meeting if you want -- we could allocate 10-20 minutes for someone to describe a security hole, how it's exploited, how to patch it, and where to find more information on it.

Hi All,

For next month we discussed having a primary topic titled "Linux
Useability", or "Being Productive With Linux".  It should be a very
basic discussion composed of several 10-20min presentations by various
people on the tools they use to be productive in the Linux environment.
If you're interested in presenting software/etc on this topic let me
know so that we can begin coordinating.

Hello Sebastian, I would like to give a presentation on KDE. I'll work
up a lesson plan for a 10-20 minute time slot and send it to you for
feedback. Rich
