Maybe I am reading too much into this, but this exchange made me wonder.
What better way to meet people and perhaps make a friend or two, than to ask
for help and get it? We are all used to getting help from people online, but
there are situations, like this one, moving to a new country, a new job/study,
when an introduction or two to actually meet face-to-face helps.
When a bunch of people from all over the world came to India to participate in
the wsfii sessions at the AirJaldi summit, it gave an opportunity to meet
face-to-face for many wsfiiers (now there's a word to drive a spellcheck mad).
And it created new Indian wsfiiers too, which is not bad.

That's really not that hard. Could you lend him a machine and an Ubuntu
CD to practice installation with before he goes?
doing that too, but at the end of the day for a first time user who wants to be
up and running its good to have some help around.
