Still feeling high from having a great week with you, I want to share
a few pointers.
The big news is another outline, this one for the command-line book
we're doing at the FSF sprint. I stuck it here, which is not the right
place, but is OK for temporary stashing:

The rest of the mail is mainly for the Winter Camp attendees in our group. Adam kindly mentioned my kids' creative work. For fun, go here:

And try some of the "Essential Clear Waves" audio. Sonia did these
when she was 15 or 16 years old.
For the more serious side of Sonia, I recommend this string quartet
movement:

I don't have Sam's biggest achievement (his performance of the
Rachmaninoff third piano concerto) online yet. But I suggest you go to
this earlier recital:

And listen to five Miroirs movements by Ravel. I can't talk any more
about an "extraordinary rendition" since the actions of our recent US
Administration, but I have always loved Sam's performance of that
work.
