Great. So that takes care of getting a place and somewhat solving the
first lecture. For an Intro to Linux lecture it would be nice to hear him
give a talk of why he chose linux over the other os's and I imagine that
he would have a lot to say about where he would like to see Linux
improve. Also, for such a lecture, I think I can get my future employer
from Guru (www.guru.net) to give a lecture on why their startup chose
Linux for the backend to their software which runs on Windows. I don't
know how many is to many but it may be nice to have a few other
examples of Startups and companies that chose Linux and why they did.
Put all that together with an hour (or so) of Q's&A's and you have
yourself a meeting.
And, if there is anything left to say about the detailed and technical
side of how Linux fits into the Mosix array, then that would make a good
lecture for Barak to give all by itself.

Great, so there is another possible lecture... of course:
> if I know poeple will come.
At this point I think it's somewhat important to hear from other capable
lecturers that would be willing to prepare a 1 to 1+1/2 hour talk
sometime in the future. Even if the stipulation for doing so is:
> if I know poeple will come.
I also think it is important to find someone or a group of people within
huji to take care of setting it up (contacting the lecturers, actually
putting everything in motion, etc...). I'm more than willing to help out
where I can (and I think others have expressed the same thing) but IMHO
there really needs to be someone inside of huji to help make it all
happen.
