Actually Evan, I agree with your sense of direction in terms of what you vision CLUE to be. I don't have a problem with corporate sponsorship either, as it's in the interests of certain companies like IBM, HP/Compaq etc., to spread the gospel of Linux to government & big business, as it is for everyone here. That's not to say that it wouldn't be practical to take funding from wherever possible. I simply view the LUG's as _one_ of those avenues. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
