I'd like to include myself in the Avoid Endless Debate group as well. To me, CLUE is about Linux in Canada (to be simplistic). If the details of advocacy are holding up any further development of the site, then may I suggest we have an additional webpage at linux.ca, titled "Advocacy" with the following written on the page: "To Be Decided". Otherwise, I fear we are once again digressing into a honeytrap of overly-academic, largely theoretical debates that will get CLUE nowhere (though perhaps enlightening some of us individually). Also, I don't think the first key to CLUE's rejuvenation should be political. I'd rather see a really well-designed, well-utilised website - a banner, if you will, for the various LUG's in Canada to be loosely represented under - than immediately aspiring to embrace an active political/philosophical stance. -- Matt Cahill mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
