Would I contribute by giving lectures? no, I don't have the time, the incentive and I really hate teaching. Would I contribute by attending those social meetings? I doubt, I don't have the time to commit to such social events. > Do you agree with knowledge sharing, that what we want now to achieve man (Knowledge sharing and Contribution) just > could we success now or not, it is my problem and your problem and every lugger I've always shared my knowledge but its really not 'my problem' if I ever decided not to share it anymore, see, this lug as any other lug is voluntary work, I can't stress the word 'voluntary' enough, there is no obligation to share anything in here, if you do share then good job, if you don't then its your choice.
I agree on this part. And when we were a small group, we tried to force ourselves to work on it, and things didn't work out. New comers mostly have stronger drive to work and contribute, this is good but sometimes it scares others away. If it were up to me, the best case scenario would be to write something all of us as a LUG and contribute to open source. IMHO it's very hard, because most of us work at least 14 hours a day. But still, I'm willing to contribute to something of this nature, NOISA was a good idea. - Ammar --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jolug" group.
