What do you mean when you say "spreading the Linux user base a >bit thin"? How is this possible? Exactly what is the density of the "Linux >user base"? If we have problems getting support for new Linux users in BRLUG, and in the past the Clickers SIG has failed for the same reason, I don't see how having two groups will help. That is what I mean by spreading the Linux user base a bit thin. I was being figurative, not literal. Anyway, I would like to reiterate once again that I have no issue with you or anyone helping the Clickers form a SIG. However, I do not feel it will help the general new Linux user issue you mentioned. And yes, we do have a LUG participation problem. >Sue Smith would like to start (or try again to start) a Linux SIG. >You and Tim say that is redundant effort (whose effort?). >I say that I'm the only one volunteering my time to help newbies in person >at the BRLUG Newbie Hour and I don't have the time to organize it better. > >What do you recommend then?
