FIY: I've announced this on my website, in a format which should
appeal to all parents and teachers who use computers but are scared or
bored by "software stuff", and also makes (note the notice in the
website footer) a one page printout to hand out to friends, coworkers,
neighbors...

Nice. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDays
But I reckon that much of the target audience may be a little
intimidated by:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDays/JoiningIn
So you might want to add some added basic info/examples on how they can
