I agree with the criticism that a lot of the content in TriLUG is 
sysadmin oriented.  On the other hand, I'll bet no one has spoken up for 
anything else, and it's only sysadmin-type bringing forth ideas.  I'll 
bet that if you or someone were to propose a programming session or two, 
you'd have takers.  I, for one, would likely be at a few of those 
sessions (schedule willing!).

On that note ... in a sister-sub-thread, I alluded to a programming 
session topic.  I'll mention that I have some HPC knowledge and if there 
is interest, I might share.  I'm by no means an expert, but that's what 
*I* see TriLUG as: a sharing ground as we all try to learn little pieces 
here and there.
