[Tom] *Arresting Development: Topics related directly to programming and
programming languages. Tutorials in something common to Unix/Linux, but
not the DOS/Windows world (awk, python, etc) might be nice.
[Ben] Got'em; see my Shell Scripting and Perl tutorials here in LG.
[Tom] *Tales From The Dark Side: Running a specific Windows app in Linux
via Wine or Wine-x. Mono tutorials, tips and suggestions.
[Ben] Hmm. That would be someone else's pidgin; I'm not too knowledgeable
in that respect. What I'd love to see would be someone doing an article
about VMware - installation, issues, etc.
[Tom] Normally, I wouldn't think to tell you guys what to do, or suggest
any changes. This is your gig after all, and you're doing a teriffic job.
But you did ask for suggestions.
[Ben] Yeah, yeah. :) Drop the defensive posture, Tom; you're in TAG, and
always welcome to contribute. That's a large chunk of what The Gang does;
at least that's the way I've always seen it.
Well, there you have it folks. As I say, this is your magazine. Please,
let us know your views and what you think. -- Thomas Adam

From one of my local LUG members, who is new to Linux. -- Heather
I was told to go check out Linuxgaztte and I am glad that I did. It has lots
of good things in it. But I am still on Windoze and if I'm going to install
Linux I didn't want to wait for the installfest. Gues I will have to though,
because the howto you have on burning ISO under that other OS I found the
past answers section doesn't work.
It looks like she is correct. The general principle works, but there are
new common places to look forr all the CD images at once, and nearly all
of the software links for trial software for mswin have gone bad.
Since the material in that thread was mostly from our readers, it looks
like you'll have to rescue us again, folks. Most of our Answer Gang are
rather purely Linux now. Alternatively, if you can't help directly but
really want to see this yourself; let me know, and if the idea is popular
enough I'll do the research to write an update for it. -- Heather

"Songs in the Key of Tux" delayed
Fri, 25 May 2004 12:45:09 -0500
Ben Okopnik ([29]LG Technical Editor)
[30]Jimmy O'Regan sends his regrets on being unable to do his "Songs in the
Key of Tux" this month. He was going to cover recording software, but it
seems that his drummer got broken... and unfortunately, he's not talking
about a piece of software (ouch. Jimmy, please emphasize to the man that
"percussion" does not involve car crashes. Unless, of course, you're with a
Progressive Technical Death Thrash Metal band, in which case carry on as you
were.) Despite all that, Jimmy has still managed to get in a couple of
articles this month and has promised more for the months ahead. I tell you,
the man is unstoppable.
As of press time Jimmy is fine, but still has a bit of RSI. We'll see more
of him next month. -- Heather
