[lug] BLUG administration in 2001

[Scott A. Herod]

Hmmm, ok.  Actually, I believe that I will be talking at the December
meeting (although it's not up on the BLUG website yet).  The talk
is intended to be about video and audio in linux but since that is
such a huge subject, I was going to ask on the mailing list after
next week's meeting to see what specifics people might like me to
touch on, i.e. what types of things people are interested in doing
with video (predominately) and audio in linux.  Since my own joy is
visual simulation, I could be easily pushed to emphasize how one can
accomplish some of that in linux.
