I probably can't do something every week but I could certainly address some
of the concerns maybe every other week or once a month depending on how busy
my schedule gets. I work at a university so I don't know how different my
situation may be from those at corporations but here are some problems I
could probably look at to address.

1. Setting up your machine to allow Active Directory logins (I have already
done this so it shouldn't be too hard to talk a little about it although it
may be a little different in 8.10 but we will see)
2. using network resources (network drives, mapping a drive, etc.)
3. Setting up corporate email/calendar to use Exchange (this one I have not
quite figured out 100% but I have been working on it)
4. How to sync data with your PDA/windows mobile phone to sync information
with linux mint (I haven't done this yet but I have a windows mobile phone
so I can try it out)

Is there anything else someone would want me to look into or could help me
out with?
Does launchpad offer a community notes taking tool so we all can start
writing down ideas and get more of a brainstorming session?
