How do you propose to do that within the framework of a (couple of ?)
stall/s and some slots in the seminar hall ? IMHO there is already the
monthly meeting of ILUG-CAL to address such issues (yep, I know we
didn't have such a session this month, but sometimes other, more
pressing issues upset the normal flow of things), since every LUG
meeting always has at least 30 minutes for BOF sessions, where people
can discuss problems faced by them while using Linux.
However the suggestion is welcome, only that more thought needs to be
put in to fit in such a program in the frameworkof our participation at
Compass.
