Hi, I have not used github in that context and hence will not be the best person to guide.
As you are already aware, github is not technology specific - in fact in github's educational vids, they explicitly mention that any 'knowledge worker' can benefit [where a knowledge worker is any person who makes use of a computer] I understand that your suggestions are aimed at making talk more inclined towards the overall theme - but I guess there's no harm in having a github training session as I'm sure not a lot of people may have started of with github, at least not the newcomers. The final decision is in the organizers hands - please let me know regards On Thu, Mar 13, 2014 at 1:08 AM, Mehul Ved <[email protected]> wrote: > On Wed, Mar 12, 2014 at 7:25 PM, Ankit Javalkar <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Like I mentioned if you can pleas eamend the Talk title to "How to use > > Github for Newbies" . > > It makes hardly any sense to have a talk on "github for newbies" for > Arduino day.
