It's worth noting that  our own Ben Reed (aka RangerRick) is a bit of a 
demigod in the Mac community for his work on fink and porting KDE to OS X.  
ROUS is also a geek circle celeb for his work on Apache, which is built 
into OS X.  Not only are these projects on-topic, they are being driven by 
TriLUG members.  Makes this stuff doubly on-topic.
