That's the ultimate plan I guess. For now, there is a need to organize PLUG first into a formal organization - once that framework has been laid then we can proceed to making amendments to the constitution that would allow each and every LUG affiliated to PLUG represented in the decision making body, making PLUG an umbrella organization for all the LUGs in the Philippines (more or less), and not a Manila-based LUG. This will entail an organizational rehaul - but we need first a solid organization if PLUG is to survive that reorganization sometime in the near future. It's going to be very exciting times ahead - hopefully we could sustain this. -- Paolo Alexis Falcone [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
