The seul-flier-linuxworld is designed to be two sides of a single
piece of paper. It's black&white and designed to be very easy to
copy in poor print quality environments.

Of course, realistically we should have a couple of spiffy graphics
at the top. If anybody wants to take this thing and actually turn it
into a spiffy flier, by all means feel free.
This was a slight adaptation of the flier we used at linuxworld in NY,
which was something I threw together at the last moment.
I'm not a graphics design person; if there are any out there, now's the
time to step forward. :)

These are only a handful of the apps that we have. Look at
www.seul.org and click all the things in the lower left. Things
like Nightfall or gtkpool might be fun to display as well.
(I recommend against trying to demo independence. :)

I suggest that you focus on demo'ing the ones that you're comfortable
working with. Since there will be several of you, perhaps you will
represent different interests and different skillsets.

I don't think you'll find much use for a printer at the expo.
