Ok then by that definition I'm probably a LUG because I promote everything. But 
I still don't want to exclude you from advertisement at my Linux Fest and I 
don't want LoCo to exclude LUGs from advertisement that want to help LoCo by 
promoting every Linux distro. Maybe what we need is a common ground site. One 
like this http://www.listphile.com/Linux that lists every location and what it 
is. By using this particular site you will be getting more traffic and if 
others from other states and cities see this site listed on your site they will 
find closer groups that they can get to. This will get rid of the frustration 
of finding support. So yes I think that every LoCo, LUG, or whatever should use 
this map site and also promote it. Is there anything wrong with that?

Please refer to Martin's message, now that I read mine again I see
they are somewhat confusing..

Of course, isn't that what we all want? Every single person that
switches to Free Software is a steep forward, without having much
importance to what exactly (s)he switches.

The point is just that if you are on a Ubuntu LoCo it's because you
personally thing that Ubuntu is a good way to let people know Free
Software, as Martin explained. As well as if you join a user team of
any other distribution it's because you thing that this other
distribution is better for the same objective, or as if you don't
really matter about distributions but just want to promote it in a
more general manner, then you'd probably go for a LUG.
