Working on it this afternoon.
In fact, I'm going to work on two versions, as Nils suggested -
a "Joe Public" version for people who have never seen Linux before,
and a "Joe Linux" version for people who've seen Linux before,
know what a distribution is, and are interested in what different
and better about Debian.
Which version do you want?
BTW, these slides were going to be designed around about a 20-minute
running time, so they may not be of much use.
Anyway, as a general rule, these are the points you'd probably want
to cover, and a rough order.
* What is the Debian Project?
* What is Debian GNU/Linux?
* What makes Debian the best Linux distribution?
- large number of packages
- package integration
- security and stability
- social contract - 100% freeness
- BTS
- you name it
* How can you get it
- FTP
- CD Vendors
* How to get further information, or get involved.
Of course, this will need substantial adjustment depending on
your audience.
Good luck with your presentation, and when I get these slides finished
I'll post them on my webpage and announce them on -publicity.
