Now that we are top posting :-) ...

Looking through my notes, I seem to have given talks on the following 
topics over the years:

1. Introduction to Asterisk VoIP system
2. Further configuration of Asterisk
3. UEFI and GPT
4. Introduction to VLAN's
5. Syncthing
6. Introduction to setting up DNS
7. Setting up an outgoing smtp server (mainly using Exim)
8. Setting up and configuring SpamAssassin
9. Using dm-crypt / cryptsetup for root partitions
10. I think there were 1-2 presentations on the cctv system for buses I 
was working on - which is now technically defunct
11. I think I gave a presentation on mapping for OSM - but can't find 
the notes
12. I'm pretty sure I showed the clocking in / attendance software I was 
working on. That is still a current project, installed and running at 
clients.

It's really down to whether there is interest in any of the topics above 
from anyone. If all else fails, I could give a presentation on 
installing Slackware :)

On the other hand, if Julian is ready with his Nixos talk, we could have 
that this week, and we can pick something from the above for one of the 
next meets.
