Of course, the only real qualification[1] for coming to UFO is that
you have some vague interest in free operating systems, or at least
free software.

[1] By "real qualification" I mean, people will wonder why you're
there, and perhaps harbor guarded fascination with whatever it is that
comes out of your mouth[2], if you don't.

[2] Rambling about Art Bell and Area 51 drive-bys while illustrating
your presentation with high-quality renderings of supposed alien
technology is totally fascinating.
