Heh, all the large OSS groups in AU currently have a major focus on 
power users, developers and such; hence events such as Linux.Conf.Au.  
This is brilliant, but there's certainly a massive user base out there 
that needs just as much focus.  Breaking this into separate groups is a 
good idea; we need to distinct the differences though, and make this 
well known.  I can forsee everything turning into a big blur.
