[kwlug-disc] Presentation needed for April

[Khalid Baheyeldin]

KWLUG is looking to accommodate both technical and newcomer audience.
In fact, the meetings will be split into two segments, and the first one
will be for those newly starting with Linux and other Open Source products.

Your presentation would be perfect for those newcomer audience.
