Yes - I would definitely agree with Sayan - I read the book - and it was
not a very enjoyable book - it costs Rs 70 only - anyone can buy it.

remember that this is a *lot* different from any other organisation.
GNU/Linux users tend to be *extremely* passionate about certain things
remember that we are dealing with an extremely complicated philosophy
here - a philosophy that has many interpretations, and each of the
LUGgers has his/her own interpretation of this philosophy, and we cannot
ignore anyone's personal feelings and thoughts
my greatest fear is that this drafting of the constitution may lead to a
forking of iLUG-Cal, which, i'm sure nobody wants.
This has happened else where before - I know that - please do not tell me to
name the group that was affected, that was one of the most unfortunate
things to happen in the history of the movement, and a lot of other
factors are involved - politics, power play, etc. i am sure that the
older members of this group know which group i am referring to
It is better if the agenda of iLUG-Cal remains fuzzy - it is better than
forking.

sorry about that thing - i thought that since it was an administrative
proposal, it would be better to let Indra-da propose it himself
....hope this does not start another round of flamewars.....

Sub : Starting X and keeping console free LOST #284
Make an alias or script for "startx &> .xsession-log &". This
creates a hidden file (.xsession-log) that you ca view later.
After running, you get your terminal back. Run vlock on this
terminal to lock it and prevent someone else from logging you
out or killing your X session while you're away.
