BJ: I think we would get more people if we had a greater
variety of presentations for people at all levels. I have talked
to a number of people and found that they say that much
of what is presented goes over their heads. So apparently
they have been largely oriented to just a few.

BJ: There is no reason why it should be difficult to get
presentations from within the group. I suggest a 
regular round of "remedial" presentations to review common
tasks that need to be done.

BJ: Years ago I suggested a Linux-PC SIG. When people
buy a machine with Windows (whatever), it is almost up
and running from the start. One simply clicks the appropriate
button and follows simple directions. Not so with Ubuntu,
or the other Linux distributions. I still think it ought to be
as easy for end users to use Linux as Windows, but 
no one seems to have an interest it making it so. I would
love to do it, if I knew how, but I don't.
