I had previously asked if the tutorials couldn't be shortened and start 30 minutes earlier so that none of them conflict the with newcomer's meet and greet. It makes little sense to me to have tutorials conflict with an event targeted at newcomers. While those of us that have been around for a while benefit from some of these other tutorials, I would think that the majority of newcomers would have an even higher level of interest in attending them.
