Indeed, these guys would surely benefit from a bit of help from our side. Are you sure you can take up the task of following them through with info and support? We will be meeting up next Saturday for a committee meeting @ 9:00am. Drop by so that you take it up yourself in the name of MLUG.
If more people are interested we can extend this to more organizations without the need of any sub-committees and extra time wasted. I believe that we are all peers and ultimatley want one thing: to support each other in the use of Linux On 1/25/07, Philip Serracino Inglott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Guys, Do you know about these guys? http://mrc.org.mt/. I was thinking of approaching them to reveal to them the benefits of OSS for NGOs (if only I did 1/4 of what I think I should do). If I do get round to doing this, can I use MLUGs name? More generally, if one of us (not a committe member) goes to give a talk about OSS, or write an email about an online service not being accessible via linux, Can that person claim to be X from MLUG. There are a few reasons why I bring up the point. As our numbers swell the name MLUG will have more clout, and in many instances, speaking with an organisation behind you, even if very small (and poor) makes a much better impression than doing so in a personal capacity. On the other hand MLUG is to small to appoint sub-commitees or waste time on beurocratic approvals of public statements, while it needs all the man power it can muster. Any lawerish people out there who can help? Philip _______________________________________________ MLUG-list mailing list [email protected] http://mailserv.megabyte.net/mailman/listinfo/mlug-list
