Hello NLUG,

It's me, your friendly neighborhood Linux Users Group President! We
have a situation, which have ran into the in the past and will run
into in the future. The need for a presenter for March 2009. With the
diverse set of talent we have in this group, I thought that someone
would want to step forward and present this month. From our
"Brainstorm ideas for presentations" page, we have the following
suggestions for meeting topics:

* OpenID

* Spacewalk

* Podcasting with entirely FOSS software

* Writing Documentation using TeX or XML, or Docbook formats

* Backups for home-type users

* Openmoko

* Enterprise Applications on an OSS base

    - Interwoven TeamSite - Andrew Farnsworth and / or Rob Huffstedler

    - Oracle

    - DB2

    - WebSphere

* How to build a home NAS (or file/print/whatever server)

* VoIP

    - How to build a Trixbox/FreePBX system (or other basic VoIP system)

    - OpenSIPS/Kamilio/OpenSER

    - SipX

* Linux routers using Zebra/Quagga or Vyatta

* MythTV howto

* iSCSI/SAN howto

* HA/DRBD howto

* Network Management howto (OpenNMS, Groundwork, etc)

    - Nagios + Cacti integration (the 2 most recognized FOSS
monitoring applications and their abilities along with integration
together and other things such as syslog, and weathermap reporting)

* Ultimate Home Server

    - VoIP (Asterisk / Trixbox)

    - PVR (MythTV)

    - File Server (Samba, NFS, AFS, etc)

    - Print Server (CUPS, Samba, etc)

    - RAID (Hardware vs Software)

* Control Systems

    - Home control (lights, shades, lawn sprinklers, etc) I can
present on this in November for basic Lighting setups. —stahnma

    - Equipment control and interfacing (CNC, 'robots', etc)

    - Real Time Linux (hard real time, vs soft real time, vs
interactive) with examples

* Programming on Linux (C/C++, ASM, Java, Ruby/RoR, PHP, Perl, Python,
Lisp/Scheme)

    - Cross-Platform Programming built in Linux

* LFS (Linux From Scratch)

* openSUSE 11 (SUSE has come a long way in this newest release!)

* How to set up a complete Linux Email/Collaboration Servers such as
Open-Xchange, Zimbra, and Scalix

Some of you have already presented on these topics. I think just about
everyone wants to see the MythBuntu session again. You may already
have a Linux, UNIX, or Open Source presentation you want to present
on. Step up and offer to present to a great group of like-minded Linux
Users.
