[Gllug] Care and feeding of newbies at LUG meetings

[Tushar Joshi]

Well I always do this, but how long do you talk to them for? I usually try
and introduce them to some people, but it doesn't quite work since the
other people are normally engaged in conversation and aren't interested in
making new friends etc. One thing that does work is getting newbies to talk
to each other :)
