Sounds good to me, although since people will be coming from TA, it'll
probably have to be a morning meeting, in which case I'd prefer a cafe
to a pizza place.

As for what to talk about, I'd like to here of people's experiences
with Hebrew under Linux & X (e.g. - did anyone compile texet (or
whatever it's called), emacs with Hebrew support, mule, ... under
Linux?  If so, how did it go, any pitfalls, ...  Also, does anyone
know how if the AUIS project word processor can work with Hebrew?  If
so, how is it? ...)

Also, the Linux Journal has some offer for linux users groups (free
issues, cheap subscriptions, etc).  I could bring some copies of the
Linux Journal for people to look at, and we could decide whether or
not to go in on the offer.

We can also see about setting up something for Linux distribution in
Israel.  ftp.technion is supposed to mirror sunsite.unc.edu but is
heavily out of whack.  A well run mirror in Israel would be great to
have.

Also, any general experiences with Linux could be discussed.
Experiences comparing Linux to other operating systems, bugs & work
arounds, ...
