The developers meet (or the linux developers meet or whatever) has an
agenda different from that of the general meet and there was never any
plan of conducting them together - the developers meet was always
scheduled for 4th sunday and the general meet for 3rd sunday.

This time though - we didnt have enough speakers in time to conduct
the general meet on the 3rd sunday (and we only have to blame ourselves
- i.e. members of the Linux Delhi group, and definitely not Tarun Dua) -
hence it was postponed to 4th sunday.  (I, the DUMB me, also made it
ambiguous in one of the mails by saying "last sunday" instead of
4th sunday - confusing things early on.. Sorry about that)

Given that both meets are being held at the same time, lets not try to
fight/find faults etc - lets simply conduct both the meets and see/learn
from  the proceedings etc..

If one is talking about bifurcation of crowd etc, soon the topic of
focus for the developers meet is going to be very narrow (like AOP,
concept of "type" in various languages etc)
which mostly be of not much interest to most of the linux "users" -
hence the need for separate meets - we (developers i hope) are not going
compromise on the level of the talks - and I am expecting similar 
sentiments from the other side of the fuzzy fence.. simple.

As far as people categorizing general meets as that for sysadmins etc -
I find that very immature mostly - There is much in common between both
the meets and given that the meets will be held on separate days from
next month - we can have talks of appropriate level in both the meets
(like we will not have a talk on how good "APT" is - in the
devel meets)..

Lets cut the threads of accusation/anguish/anger/etc (arising mostly
from incomplete info i guess) and think about presenting/talking about
topics which interest us in the subsequent meets.. :-)
