That will be the basis of my talk: FreeBSD, Apache, Perl, etc. I would _love_ to have a case of 2.2.5 CD's to hand out, and I intend to show off Grog's book as well. I'll be at the Circus Circus the evening of the 6th, if anybody would like to connect. I was thinking of making a little pamphlet, but CD's would be awesome.
