selinux talk at OxLUG - Russell Coker

AFAIK this talk at OxLUG on Sunday is still on (selinux list message appended below.)

A few other posters on CLUG have mentioned selinux recently.

I'm certainly up for it; but have no transport at the moment. If anyone else from CLUG or ALUG would be interested in a lift and cost sharing journey - please contact me and express interest in this thread.

If there is sufficient interest, I'll contact Russell Coker for more information, as he suggested. Anyone else ahead of me on this one, please email me off list!

TIA --James

Peter suggested that I should inform everyone about the talks on SE Linux I'm giving in the near future. So here's my current plans:

On Sunday the 7th of April I am giving a presentation on SE Linux for OxLug (the Oxford LUG). It's an open invite, contact me off-list if you are interested in attending and I'll get you the details.

Then I'm doing a presentation at OLS http://www.linuxsymposium.org/ , and after that I'll probably offer a talk for the Debian Conference 2 in Toronto (early July). I imagine that the DebConf people won't reject a talk from me on this topic. Also I have nothing planned between OLS and Debconf, so I could probably do a local LUG in the mean time.

Also at OLS I would like to arrange a BOF on advanced security (where we can discuss SE Linux, GR Security, OpenWall, LIDS, and anything else that seems appropriate). This will be entirely separate from the LSM BOF. Another thing I was thinking of was an install-fest for these things.

The topics of my talks will be SE Linux in general and on Debianizing it in particular (with discussion on general packaging issues that also apply to RPM or other packaging systems). Also I will discuss other related issues such as finding bugs in programs through SE Linux (which is actually a very trivial thing but gets people's attention). The balance of the various items I talk about will depend on what I expect the audience wants, and can change during the talk in response to questions (I prefer a very interactive format for my presentations).

I've agreed in concept to give a talk for the Nederlandse Linux Gebruikers Groep http://www.nllgg.nl/ , but have not been able to arrange a date yet because of my schedule and their schedule not matching well. I'll also offer talks to any other groups that meet in the center of the Netherlands (where I live), and I'll consider other European countries.

I'll be in Australia in May to get married, due to this and the talks I have got planned already I can't arrange anything else before the August. The only possible exception is something in Canada the week after OLS which doesn't involve incurring any expenses for me.

At the moment I can't arrange anything in August or later because it's too far ahead and I'm organizing too many other things at the moment and can't deal with that too.

Please contact me off-list if you want to discuss any of these issues other than BOFs.
