On first principles, MAME is a major open source project that runs
under Linux, so I have no trouble with this appearing on the GTALug
wiki. I would like to see a GTALug MAME page in the same class as the
MythTV page, namely a page that:

- Presents an overview of the project.
- Offers sources and resources of other project information.
- Notes Canadian and/or GTA specific information, such as local
vendors of note. Also make such points as, if building a cabinet, with
coin door, most US coin acceptors will reject Canadian quarters (ie:
when shopping make sure a coin acceptor can accept Canadian coins...).

In fact, it was while doing yet another edit to the MythTV page that I
thought, here is a project that ought to get some coverage and isn't
being mentioned on the GTALug website...
