Thanks for the ideas, I'll keep them in queue for the meetings. I'm sure there
are plenty of people who could benefit from a lecture on how Unix filesystems
are set up in general. This does vary from Unix to Unix, though, and even a
little from one Linux distribution to another, though there's work being done
to standardize. Perhaps we could do a meeting on the basic Unix filesystem
structure and how the major Unix players differ in this regard, including
different init script setups. Any other ideas/interest in this regard? Any
experts willing to give presentations?
The Unix development environment, including make and gcc and friends, is a
great topic too. There's a lot to it, as a quick perusal of the man and info
pages for those two programs will show. I also think it would be interesting
to have a presentation on how to use autoconf and such in a project, as well as
some version control system like CVS. Again, if you are or know an expert
who may be willing to give a presentation on one of these topics, please email
me.
