Surely, regarding GLLUG, not even the (cloudy) sky is the limit?
(actually I was thinking of topics that would interest a range of 
members, and that not many of us work on local or remote clouds).

Mind you I figured that if he took on the task at a more hardware/OpSys 
level, we could count upon virt-Rich to put together a complementary 
talk... an ideal opportunity for you to talk about how there'ĺl be no 
need to learn a new tool when moving between VM and cloud environments!
