Hi

Tomorrow's TeX Hour is about relearning and rethinking the beginner
experience. It's Thursday 3 June, 6:30 to 7:30pm UK time. As a community,
we need to keep up. So much has changed since 2011.

1. Online YouTube videos on learning latex have been viewed over 10 million
times.

million times.

million times.
