	My name is Mark Zusman, I work as both Unix developer and 
	SysAdm (as contractor). I administrate linux at work, and I
	assist to my friend with his linux at home. I'm one of the
	gcc developers (my part is ObjC runtime), so I have access
	to gcc developers internal mailing list, so if anybody
	has questions that aren't in FAQs - I think I'll be able to
	direct them to the right people.

	I suggest the following topics for discussion:
	- Linux distributions in Israel: how can one buy CD distribution
	here, hwo can we establish distribution on the othr media
	(I have 4mm DAT on my system, Omer Zak wrote about QIC);

	- kernels 1.<odd>.x are experimental and not stable,
	but I'm interested in first-hand experience with those kernels -
	what features are going to be in the next kernels, in
	what directions development moves. Sorry, but because nboth
	of "my" Linuxes are intended for work I can't do any
	experiments with them;

	- I have specific interest in NFS between Linux and other
	Unixes; last status that I heard was about 100-200 K/sec.
