I like the idea, and I'd definitely attend and participate! I'm not sure how much fun it would be for some of the fuddy-duddies in the group, though. ;-) Mind you, if the game(s) have an "observer" mode (BZflag is one that has this), we could throw that on the projector and make it more of a show.

Mike's Warzone 2100 demo offer gave me an idea...
Has there ever been a MUUG game night? Perhaps we could vote on 1 or 2 favorite open source games & use one of the meetings (Xmas Party) as a LAN party? We could do the round-table first & then LAN party for any who wanted to stay.
Just an idea.

We are quickly powering through our current RTFM pool.
Since the point of the exercise is to educate the group it seems only
reasonable to find out what commands/systems the group would like to hear about?
That being said, is there any command/system you were always curious
about but haven't found time to investigate?
What about a command you are using but you are unsure if you are getting
the full potential out of it?
Any particular command you enjoy using that you think other people could
benefit from?
Let us know and we'll add it to the pool.
If anyone wants, I can talk about a trio of commands. "cd", "pushd",and "popd". I can also give the standard lecture of how directories are created/removed/arranged.
At a later date I can give a short demo of a cross-platform gamecalled Warzone 2100. I can even demo a GameBoy emulator (I used to run a game oriented BBS with a friend and I guess it's still an area I pay a little attention to). An admitted departure from the system admin oriented presentations, but a break every now and then couldn't hurt. ;-)
