  suggestion: one issue is number of things that are obstacles. Have a moderated session that are 
              show-stoppers for people.  Maybe some segment of people. e.g. audacity, printing,
              some other things.
  tutorials need to be revamped.
  try harder to get talks online --- recorded.
