Thanks for sharing the 'ancient' history of ILUG-COCHIN. We've got almost same history during the regular meeting of April. And what we have to do immediately is documenting it in our website for make it available for future members. > One other thing which I have noted to be the culture of the meeting and > mailing list is that when some users become verbally active bordering on > tough language, the rest of the users become silent to avoid a flame war. > If those flame wars are meant for restructuring / repairing / correcting the system - it is good and will be well appreciated. Even if it's otherwise, it is still good for guiding the system towards a correction level. This is my thoughts. Since it is a big group, there may be lots of other guys having different thoughts. ILUG-COCHIN has a wonderful tradition over 15+ years. And I hope it will be glittering again, correcting the issues. > My idea is also not to create a flame war, but just some suggestions to > show that we functioned like one big family and generally did not have any > difference of opinion about it. I do not believe it should change now. > Change is inevitable. Impermanence rules the world :-) We have to change, maintaining our love and respect intact, inside the fraternity and towards the community. > I know all the people who are involved in bringing this group to where it > is now, I know there is no lack of transparency in any of these people, > many things may not be complete when expressed in the mailing list and > there fore I do not consider it the best medium for exchange except to fill > in some gaps here and there. > Right medium is always direct meeting (ツ) > My hope is that people will be more considerate to others and end all > this confusion. > > Though the people in the mailing list would not generally react to tough > language, even quoted from a third party, I have found that there are > strong views about it and need to be considered. > -- THOMAS. *M.VAZHAPPILLY *
