I recently signed up for the LOPSA mailing list and was surprised at the
complete lack of traffic. And I'm never sure if there *is* an AZSAGE at
any given time. I don't know *what* the deal is with SA groups, but it's
obviously hard to get people out. PhxBUG will continue to do SA related
topics. We've been doing multi-computer live setup & demo (Kerberos &
PF) so you get to see everything in action, and fixing things when it
doesn't work the first time. ;) Inevitably, that *does* lead to OS
specific steps. But if you can do Kerberos on BSD then you can manage it
in Linux.

That's probably good, as there's a good chance that we'll be convering
PF for the next couple of meetings, and that's pretty much a BSD-only
thing. Though any of you Linux iptables people might want to show up and
see things done with some different tools.
