Mesa meeting topic?

Am 29. Nov, 2001 schwätzte Alan Dayley so:

I could do a 10 - 20 min piece on a few topics. Intro to journalled
filesystems, e.g. what is a journalled filesystem, jumps to mind. After the
presentation we could take comments from the peanut gallery about the
different journalled filesystems available for Linux.

I can do a variety of other sys_adm topics. Anything in particular they'd
like to see?

The key is probably keeping it down to 10 or 20 minutes this month.

ciao,
