Hmm.  I guess it's just a ferry ride away.
I would need to schedule leave from work, get spouse unit authorization,
etc.

Really, it was a very basic demo of using Kino to pull data off of a
mini-DV camcorder, doing some basic transitions and setting up chapters,
exporting mpeg, then using dvdstyler to set up a menu and burn a DVD.  I
think it took about an hour and a half, and a lot of that was watching
progress bars.

With some work done beforehand that could be reduced. (grab a little bit
of video, then import the rest that's pre-captured, already have an
exported mpeg, to switch to, etc.)

What kind of venue is it?  How many people would be interested?  I've
never given a presentation for more than about 50 people.
