sorry ... lost the original post .. > This post runs the risk of sounding extremely critical, but I would critical ... yes ... enlightening ... definitely ... You have in one small (??) mail summed up the state of most of the small LUGs in India and abroad. If Linux has to grow beyond the level which it has reached now ... if die hard windows users have to be converted ... then the social face of Linux ... the LUG meetings ... have to change.

Two of them are not regular members of this group.This makes the your statistics are fine but then this is hardly a 'group' ... except for the three four ppl you have mentioned in the mail ... i don't think anyone else is actually a member of the group ... and about registering as a non-profit organisation ... ilug-cal is way too small for that right now .. i think > All we need do is have a fixed day for the meet every month/fortnight. i'm for this suggestion of fixing up a particular day for the meetings instead of deciding on the day on the list ... this is how it happens around the world ... and moreover it's not possible for us to take into account everyones schedule while scheduling meetings ... this might go on for some time ... but when the group becomes a little more big .. it's not possible .. instead of deciding the time according to availability of memeber ... let the members make time for the LUG .. i'm sure they can do this much for linux :) and ya .. tech sessions apart ... i think it's high time we do a CD burning/install fest ... maybe somewhere in february depending on how linux fares at Compass. -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the body "unsubscribe ilug-cal" and an empty subject line.
