Dirk I can contribute to your q's 1&2. Of course others welcome to 
help clarify all of Dirk's q's. It's not like there's a wiki for this 
(or is there?) were learning as we go along

......Well Dirk I think what we all had in mind when going to schools 
& universities is just talking to a class, show them a couple of GUI 
apps on our laptop or if we dont have one booting up a minidistro on 
their existing pc, and go through a couple of slides. Nothing more 
required. But it's GREAT if you go beyond by actually building a 
relationship with the professors, curriculum development etc. That's 
what makes a Lasting difference long after we leave, if we get them 
to actually start Teaching linux every semester. I will help you out 
in this process.

I dont like long presentations personally. I think only 6 slides: who 
we are, what linux is, history, present, future, how to join the lug. 
The rest is just talking. I have not seen anyone uploading a sample 
presentation to the files section of the lug so worst case scenario 
I'll have to put together a 10-minute quickie the day of presenting. 
In the same way we will be using the same ubuntu cds for both schools 
and universities, We should be using the same presentation too, no 
need to duplicate effort. Joseph any thought about your agenda for 
the schools?
