So, I went on and translated the thing into english, current LaTeX
state is on

        http://svn.mnementh.de/Infos/Vorträge/

and a resulting PDF is to be found here:

        http://thomas.orgis.org/talks/sourcemage.pdf

I extended it only marginally -- so please give me some pointers to
additional info to include, stuff to correct...
Patches are also welcome;-)

Ideas I already have:
- add \ifgeek for showing example spell code (one dimple DETAILS-only
  spell, one spell with non-standard install)
- add some color via Tux, GNU gnu, software logos in the noob-introduction
- split up slides for the different distro tools (sorcery, cast, etc.)

Things that I wonder about:
- You have to take care to include the -name in
        gaze search -name <something>
  ...otherwise, a demonstration takes _ages_. Don't we have a
  cache/search index solution for DETAILS data fields?
  I know that DETAILS is no database but a (turing-complete) script,
  but still...


Alrighty then,

Thomas.

PS: How long should the talk be, again?
