Chris and others, What I'd like to see is a few comparative talks, like 10 different ways to create that document, using latex, lyx, openoffice, kword, vi, emacs, whatever.
same with scripting languages, how does a simple (but not dumbed down) task compare in bash, perl, python, ruby, zsh, tcl/tk, whatever. Maybe we should set a programming task and ask people to undertake it in their favourite language, with an expanation for the group. Obviously this won't be done by the 29th, something for the future?
