I was on the bus home that perhaps a good starting point would be to cover security through installation and the first boot. For example the firewall, services, user configuration tools, the choices you have and reasons to make your choices. After that, extending to core packages directly involved with security and then to secure configuration of other common core packages. I wasn't thinking of anything along the lines of "linux security" or "general computer security" at least not in the immediate future, I think that's too much of an under taking, and likely to lose momentum.
