Is there any special presentation planned for the Sarasota meeting
Wednesday?

If not -- or perhaps afterwards in a nearby bar -- I'd like to do a
little brain-picking about what exactly should be in a book tentatively
titled "Point and Click Linux" I'm about to start writing for Prentice
Hall, probably under the Sams imprint.

This book won't be for you super-geeks, but will be something you give
to relatives/coworkers getting started with Linux so they won't
constantly ask you questions. In other words, a "'fine manual" you can
tell them to read. There sure as bleep ain't one out there now that's
useful for people who just want to learn the minimum pointy-clicky stuff
to use Linux as a home or office desktop OS, not get deluged with
command line obscurity...
