With main heading you mean the word "community"? |

Yes :) As you can see I use four main subjects: |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
- History |
| 14 |
- Metadistribution |
| 15 |
- Community |
| 16 |
- Organisation |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
The "Metadistribution" has |
| 19 |
-- Portage |
| 20 |
-- Init Scripts |
| 21 |
-- Installation Choices |
| 22 |
-- Rapid Development |
| 23 |
-- Learn |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
If you would be able to make backgrounds for these themes I believe most |
| 26 |
subjects that can rise in a presentation (generally) are discussed. |

To have dev space you need to become a developer. To become a developer you |
| 32 |
need to continuously make considerable contributions to the Gentoo project. |
| 33 |
If you're interested in becoming a developer, just contact me off-list :) |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
If you just need space, I'm sure another solution can be found. |

Good question. I was thinking about having a document online on how to make |
| 40 |
decent presentations. There are many rules to this so it would be nice if we |
| 41 |
can sum those up. This would also include how to act properly during the |
| 42 |
presentations. |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
Another thing would be to have "official" presentations online (I am |
| 45 |
hoping for magicpoint because it is easily added to CVS and very small :). To |
| 46 |
be more precise, I hope that some of the aspects of the Gentoo project are |
| 47 |
available as presentations (in cooperation with the projects). For instance a |
| 48 |
presentation on "The Gentoo Hardened Project". These presentations can then |
| 49 |
be used by interested developers to give a presentation on the subject in |
| 50 |
their local LUG or at some free software conference. |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
Non-presentation related, but still interesting, is to have a design out |
| 53 |
which can be printed as hand-outs for distribution on events, or even a press |
| 54 |
map in case a presentation is made at a more official conference. |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
That's a bit of the things that are on my mind. |
