+6. Introduction:
+
+"Making Friends with LaTeX" (MFwL) started out as a small presentation, which i
+used to introduce my students to LaTeX. However, with the release of Ver 1.00
+in Jauary 2006, I received a lot of feedback on the presentation and I
+therefore decided to extend it. The second version, made using the powerdot
+package, has been extended and currently this presentation stands at 64 slides;
+more than double from its first version
+
+The objective of MFwL is to introduce new comers to LaTeX and make them aware
+of various aspects of working with LaTeX. It covers:
+
+(a) LaTeX Advocacy
+(b) LateX Document Structure
+(c) Paragraph Mode and Math Mode
+(d) Structuring the document
+(e) Creating Tables, Graphics (in very short)
+(f) BibTeX
+(g) Recommendations for a LaTeX system
+(h) References for further reading
+
+It's objective is not to make a person expert in using LaTeX but to get the
+person interested in LaTeX by making him understand the LaTeX way of working.
+The intention is that once the person is comfortable with the idea s/he can
+then explore the wonders of LaTeX on his/her own pace
+
+7. Feedback:
+
+Please feel free to give your feedback. The Only request is that in the
+subject line please include "MFwL". This will help me filter mails and
+respond quickly
