I would be. Also, after my NYLUG talk, several Cornell (?) grad
students were talking about a cluster they were making for their
group, and they thought they could give a talk on it.
I'm not sure exactly how much overlap there is here, but I wouldn't be
surprised if we could make two separate workshops out of it. Any thoughts?

yay! Here's a random proposal:
- One workshop a month
- One "newbie night"[1] every two months, offset by half a month
- One Pacific Standard (or somewhere) gathering every two months, the
off-months from newbie nights ?
[1] Can you think of a better name for this?
Do you think that Control Group for workshops (but rotating to other
places people volunteer) and NYC Resistor for Newbie Night (for now,
we can try moving around to get a broader range of people coming).
