May I suggest for possible topic considerations, some purpose specific 
distributions that have web management interfaces. This can demonstrate 
to Linux newbies, custom distributions  that can be installed easily and 
used from day 1 without any, or very little under the hood knowledge and 
can be used with confidence in their environments to leverage the power 
of Linux and Open Source.

A couple that spring to mind are:

1 - Endian Firewall - Security Appliance "

2 - SME Server - Small Business Server "http://www.smeserver.org/"
