I agree with Warren.  Not everyone is an experts and I've noticed the
"experts" start to become "thin clients" when a so called "novice" asks
any kind of serious in depth question."  No matter what you do you will
never be able to have a meeting that fits the needs of all the people. 
But if Linux is going to go anywhere, people who are knowledgeable are
going to have to realize that it's extremely important to help newcomers
interested in using open source operating systems.  I don't think there
is anyone who knows everthing about any computer system.
