I purposefully left out "Linux" as there are some groups around that are about software that runs on more than just Linux. And really, "Linux" is a kernel, and some infrastructure, but the majority of software runs on other kernels too. If we're going to make a conglomerate list, we shouldn't be exclusionary by saying you can only talk about Linux. I think somebody mentioned posse, Puget Open Source Software Enthusiasts, but I think posse has already been taken up within the community: http://teachingopensource.org/index.php/POSSE (Professors Open Source Summer Experience) Anyway, I like psg, geeks of all nature can communicate. I know within my circle of friends we have Linux geeks, OS X geeks, audio geeks, bike geeks, car geeks, food geeks, hardware geeks, software geeks, and we all seem to be able to communicate and share in each other's interests. So I'd like a list, where we can celebrate all things geek in the Puget Sound.
