Well, of the above topics, I could do a presentation on TurboGears ...
if it's the second half of next year, maybe on graphics. Or how about a
KISS session on ALSA?

Actually, though, what I'd really like to present on is the programming
language OCaml. I strongly believe it's a language worth knowing about,
but it would be nice to have some sense from the group of how much
interest there is in *different* languages ... I often get the
impression that most people are quite content with the same old C, Java,
Python, Perl, & PHP.
