Korrect! Where's riK when you Kneed him?

I thank Nick for distilling the essence of the 'Linux/OSS' brand
subordination of GNU.

This is most useful insight to what kind of grouping we are a part of,
since we don't have a LUG:
http://clug.net.nz/index.php/ThereIsNoCLUG - ipso facto, no LUG.
What we do have is concentric circles, of differing sizes, of which this
list - originally just the University of Canterbury Linux Users (to whom
we remain most grateful) - is by far the larger set.
Meetings built out of the list then title themselves. Debate of this ad
hoc structure may or may not be necessary. I have further interpretation
to provide.
[1] This may be confusing to our resident Poms, for whom 'public school'
= private school.
