Being sent to our two panelists for the Wednesday, March 5 presentation
on Raspberry Pi, as well as to the Volunteers list:

 Bob Smith <bsmith at linuxtoys.org>
 Paul Zander <paulz at ieee.org>

Guys, thanks for stepping forward.  This is going to be fun for you as
well as everyone else, and that's what it's all about.

As you'll see from the http://lists.svlug.org/archives/svlug-announce/
archive, the meeting announcement needs:

o names of the panelists and whatever affiliation they want to state.
  If you don't tell me something else, I'll go with 'Bob Smith and 
  Paul Zander, longtime SVLUG members'.  Your option, if you want to
  supply something different.
o Talk title.  Default will be 'Raspberry Pi Workshop and Demo', but 
  again you can telle me what you prefer.
o Talk description.  This is 1-2 sentences where you say what the 
  talk (/event)'s about.  Along with the title, this is your most 
  effective space to get across to people why they should want to 
  attend.
o 'More about the speaker'.  Here, you would need to provide something
  about yourselves or I wouldn't have anything.  With some speakers, 
  if they don't say anything, we can get bio information off their 
  or their employers' Web pages.

Please help us out by providing the above stuff.  Otherwise, we'll
just wing it, and I'd rather the text be what you guys want.

I remember that Paul said specifically he wanted to welcome other
Raspbery Pi owner/enthusiasts to bring theirs and participate.  That can
be made clear in the talk description.  If you want, you can also
recruit additional panelists on the main mailing list, but I'd suggest
saving time and keeping things simple by going with what we have.

Thanks, folks,
