here is what i propose: 1) every ilug-d meet begins with a 15-minute introduction to gnulinux for newbies and even wannabies. each time, a new guy from our group delivers this presentation, in his or her own style and interpretation.
the assumption will be is that the target audience for this talk is made of windoze users who have never seen gnulinux in their life but have heard about it. the choice of topix, the content of the talk, is entirely upto whoever volunteers. for instance, someone could just give a walk-through of an installation (think install fest). another could do a walk-thru of equivalent software like gaim, mplayer, oo, intro to vi/emacs, etc etc. and so on. the rest of the meet focuses on other topics, not necessarily for newbies, such as the usual ones suggested here. however, just handing out documents or free cds is not enough for a newbie. and since we have not been able to mobilize our initiatives to hold regular newbie meets, i recommend we hold a 15-minute newbie intro every meet.
