Sweet date change. I live in Sacramento, but July never worked for me.
I agree with Red. A retro theme would be cool. I'd like to see a classic optimization workshop (you know, choosing the right ROM patches, third-party widgets, etc.). I suppose that's something that's covered by most local SIGs, but still, it would be interesting. A classic towering/case modding workshop would be cool, too. What else. . . . An emulation workshop? Optimizing UAE for gaming, Catweasel, and general purpose use? (Amithlon is cool, but since it's no longer available, it probably shouldn't be on the schedule.) A classic programming workshop with an emphasis on current native and cross build environments (GNU C/C++ on Linux and Cygwin, VBCC, etc.)?
