[kwlug-disc] Linux & Linux admin for newbies

[Paul Nijjar]

Okay. I have slotted Jim in here: https://kwlug.org/node/1111

and I have slotted William in here: https://kwlug.org/node/1118 . 

Let me know if you would like changes to these abstracts. 

This is a good start.  Are there other people who would be interested
in offering beginner-friendly presentations on basic Linux topics?

- Paul

Anyway, the beginner sessions sound like a great idea! I know I could still benefit as I do not work with Linux but have been using it for some time.
