I'd be happy to show of my RPi's and some of the small things I've been working on with them.<div><br></div><div>-Gary</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Dec 12, 2012 at 10:46 PM, David L.

get set up it sparked lots of "what about this" that not everyone was familiar with.<br>
<br>
If nobody says anything I probably won't get around to doing anything with them so let me know what<br>
you think:<br>
<br>
- We set up our own LAN. That meant DHCP (but really APIPA or even by-hand addresses would have<br>
been fine). Thankfully we had a windows box to provide that ;-) It also turned out we had boxes<br>
that didn't have wireless and needed to install packages. Since I did a talk one time (a *really*<br>
long time ago that included a "build a router in one slide" slide, I made my box a router. It's<br>
harder now because we needed NAT (don't know if McAfee's wifi runs a routing protocol--probably not)<br>
but it worked. We didn't have any dynamic DNS so we did hosts files (and not even via FTP so it was<br>
painful).<br>
<br>
So the thought is to have a talk/demo/hands on about that. We should document what we do so it can<br>
be replicated if we do a similar private LAN for other talks. I think DNS would be the hard<br>
part--DHCP and routing are easy but since WINS has been around since last century we should figure<br>
out the right way to do it.<br>
<br>
That's a talk I could give if no one else wants to (so be sure that when you vote for this topic you<br>
also vote whether you want a different speaker) :-)<br>
<br>
- Gary has 3 Rapsberry Pis. If we twist his arm he might bring one for us to look at/play<br>
with/something. I told him that just showing one was a good start and that he could easily work on<br>
something he hadn't had time for and we'd be happy to watch. (Of course there would be lots of<br>
"what are you doing with it" and "did that work" questions to fill the time.)<br>
<br>
- I know someone who knows Jenkins (continuous integration) and could do a demo.<br>
<br>
- There were some other ideas that came right at the end so if you remember them, pipe up.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
Dave<br>
