[LRUG] Chat Digest, Vol 36, Issue 11 (Beware of the Nuby)

[Sebastian Komianos]

Right, I want to really ask you to forgive me for this mess in advance as I
am pretty sure that I will create one. (Thing is I have never been a part
of a mailing-list)

What I wanted to say basically is that I believe it would be quite
attractive and useful to have beginners-oriented talks in every meeting. I
mean, imagine a newbie like me. I have been waiting for the most "suitable"
meeting of yours to attend but I always find that I won't be able to follow
them since I pretty much know nothing more than the basics of the language.
So, what about 10-15 minutes each time during which you will talk for the
beginners?

Thank you for your time, sorry for the mess once again.

P.S: I'd really appreciate it if someone could also explain to me how to
reply...properly!
