I'm with Dennis on this one. I've been using Gentoo for close to 3 years now, but I really don't see a need for a Utah specific group. It would only cause for more confusion for anyone new to Gentoo anyway unless we had a decent number of active members. I would be curious as to the number of interested Utah Gentoo users though, maybe it's more possible than I'm guessing. On a somewhat related note though, I would love to see some of us get a cool solution together that would work for the local linux install fests as far as Gentoo is concerned that shows off some of the power of Gentoo. - Bryan /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
