This would be good, but I'd fear we'd leave many newbies and other less geeky regulars bored stiff... maybe we spend the last 30 minutes on this and people can leave early? My original idea was to do an intro to .deb for the kernel compiling person, which I'd assume would have a wider appeal. Also, there is a hello package (and hello-debhelper) that goes through building your first deb. Might be a good basis for such a talk centered on C and .deb. -- Ted Deppner http://www.psyber.com/~ted/ _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
