the fact that so many people are scratching their heads on this topic
makes it clear that viewing the 'mpe track' from a traditional
point-of-view isn't applicable anymore.

may i suggest instead something along the lines of 'training' sessions
especially geared (but not neccessarily limited to) homesteaders.  i
see the sessions as covering mpe -- os and hardware -- from top to
bottom.  the 'brain drain' in the mpe community is massive and anything
that can be done to get knowledge into the hands of the people who need
it the worst will be appreciated.           - d
