Szemir talked about an Italian firewall that was hot and there has been other talks on the list. While you did one on IPCop a ways back, it might be a good place to start. One thought was to have a topic a month in an order that was of interest to a new Linux user, to have more than one contributer on a same topic and though not discussed at the exec meeting - I like to see a nubie to nubie corner where we can capitalize on materials presented (when possible and appropriate) by new Linux users to create a resource for future Linux users.
An audio talk would also be an excellent topic as would a general multimedia talk. Multimedia is one of the more challenging areas both for linux and windows users alike and presents a substantial barrier to those migrating from windows to linux. I remember an article in a recent linux magazine relating to migration difficulties. I know it can seem to be like a chore but could I get Gustin and Szemir to supply a 25-50 word blurb on your topic - I would like to see not only the topic advertise but also a bit on the talk as well.
