I thought so, but I no longer trust my memory :-)

I will forward you all the communication. I already requested a booth
(today) and have commited one paper. (no, not dstat :-))
With the upcoming NLLGG CentOS day in the Netherlands, I hope we can
produce some more presentation content that we can reuse at other events.
I was also thinking of making some groundrules for our presentation
framework, like:
- presentations should be available in English as well and maintained at
least in English (so people can contribute and give feedback)
- presentations should contain notes with a summary of what the main
motivation is for each slide and special examples/points you want to
make (so other people can give the same presentation)
- presentations should be versioned and are maintained by the original
author (to prevent mistakes or having to merge content after someone
edited a local copy)
And we should probably think of important main presentations that we want
people to look at about:
- The CentOS project
- CentOS and Enterprise Linux distributions
- Installing and configuring CentOS for desktop use (!)
- Installing and configuring CentOS for server use
- CentOS system administration (tips and best practices)
so that we have content (free to use) for schools and organisations.
PS I also noticed that moinmoin has a Slideshow capability but I am not
sure if that is something we want to use to work collectively on
presentations. I myself am fond of using OpenOffice and I can imagine
people do not want to spend a lot of time on layout before a presentation
to get the latest bits.
