I'd strongly recommend you tell users about the psmenurc
if you replace the default menurc with psmenurc it gives you keybindings
more like those used in Adobe Photoshop, and it makes using the Gimp a lot
more comfortable for many users, unfortunately it is a hard feature to
find out about.
Great point.  Thanks for reminding me.

Thank you.  I actually speak French, so I'll jeter un coup d'oeil, and 
see what I can re-use.

A good GIMP presentation should probably talk a little bit about
the project history (5-10 mins), followed by a simple
demonstration with every step explained (about 30 mins) followed
by a QA session for about 10 minutes. If I had it to re-do,
that's what I'd do.
I'm planning on doing a little red-eye removal demo, plus how to lighten 
a dark photo, finishing off with an advanced demo like making flames 
(which I am trying to learn now).

This is great! We really should be keeping track not only of
presentation materials that people put together for
presentations, but also people who do presentations in case
someone wants to give them junkets ;)
Sign me up  ;-)  I'm trying to find time to relaunch my whole web 
presence, as a practical GNU-Linux Business/User-oriented site.  Of 
course GIMP will be featured as a primary example of the power of 
logiciel libre.
You might want to look at Simon Budig, tigert and jimmac's GIMP
stuff. Simon has several presentations/talks online, and both
jimmac and tigert have tutorials which are very good for a
presentation of the GIMP.
Merci.  Not sure if I've seen Simon's stuff, but I recognize both tigert 
and jimmac.
