Re: Beginners Workshop Prerequisites - by Ben
The workshops assume you have a computer, but that's about it. If you have questions, just turn up and there will be someone to answer and/or help you :-)
The talks that are scheduled *can* assume some Linux knowledge, but that depends entirely on the talk in question.
