Yes. We should literally target anyone walking into FUDCon at foss.in -
since we expect the walk-ins to contribute
There are two aspects to this. I'd like to have an agenda which makes it
explicitly clear as to what is the intent of having a FUDCon and what is
going to happen. And, that translates into working on honing a perfect
agenda.
That said, your statement below is of importance. We cannot simply turn
a blind eye to a large segment of users or even potential users and we
need to work on the bootstrapping.
There isn't much that takes to make the user -> contributor jump. I
believe we owe it to our users to make the steps for the jump clear.
Whether they choose to take it, is their choice.

non IRC build up events via UGs are important and required.
