[ale] Seeking LVM presentation [ was: LVM - Can't add new drive?]

[Michael Hirsch]

Right you are!  I had forgotten, for fortunately, before I forgot I put

http://tomshiro.org/cgi-bin/twiki/view/ALE/ScheduledSpeakers

I'm still interested in the topic of LVM, but the need is not urgent.
We have at least two months of speakers.  Three, if Aaron is really
going to be ready by April.  ;-)
