I had a chat with Dave on Monday as I reminisce over the workshops that 
we had in the good old days (only about a year ago) -- I would like to 
resurrect that but am incapable of doing it alone as many of you might 
also feel.  I think it might be worthwhile as a team project - to be 
able to learn in a small team and to deliver in a bigger environment.

In my mind the following components will be required:

time
knowledge and the willingness to share that knowledge
ability to transfer knowledge
an interesting topic

I know many of you have many aspects required but very few have them all 
-- however as a group, I am sure that we could pull something like this off.

Purpose of the whole exercise, build a legacy -- something that could be 
run by someone who is willing without all the skills that is willing to 
share and move Clug forward.

Stage 1 -- anyone else thinks this might be a good idea and have a bit 
of time and effort to donate

Stage 2 -- identification of a topic that might be of interest to a group

Stage 3 -- get together to design a mini-workshop

Stage 4 -- document and delivery of that knowledge to a small group

Stage 5 -- file away so that someone can repeat the exercise in a years 
time for the next wave of Linux adopters

I know this will be a sore point with some -- I insist on the use of a 
standard distro.  I know we all have our favourites but too have a high 
level of success and good participation, I think this is something that 
we need to adopt in the beginning.  The time for experimentation is 
after we got it working and we get more experts involved.  The past of 
workshop would also be that much quicker.

Just my 2 pesos.
