Do we have some canned presentations on GNOME that one could give?  My

Have you read this?

I have not.  But I'm glad you've pointed it out to me.  I'll definitely 
give a look-a-see.

If you want to give a general style of tutorial about what bits make up
GNOME and how they fit together, please feel free to reuse (either
verbatim or in modified format) the slides I made for linux.conf.au

Cool.  I might just do that.  Thanks.  I feel much more comfortable about 
the whole thing.

(http://www.gnome.org/~malcolm/lca-2004). The slides as they are on that
site comfortably filled a two and a half hour tutorial, which included
about twenty minutes of demonstrations of various things and a lot of
ongoing questions.

Great!  Maybe approaching GNOME from a sysadmin perspective might be an 
interesting angle too.


Somewhat related, I have been promised a write-up from the guys who did
the GNOME booth at Solutions Linux last week. Hopefully we can collect
together a few things like that to help ease the process of having
booths at conferences (although I realise you have done this sort of
thing before, Sri. My comment is more in the way of a general thing).

Right, and I think I did a dump of my experiences. My experiences was 
particurly bad because of relative timeframes of OSCON and GUADEC.  So, 
essentially what we need to do here is to have an action plan before all 
these conferences come together so we all know what to do.

So by April or so, I'd like to make sure that what I need to have taken 
care of is well understood.  

O'Reilly Open Source Convention, July 26 - January 30.

My main observation is that that is a very long conference. Will you be
in attendance for the entire five months? :-)

Sure, if those Star Wars folsk can do it, so can I! :-)
