Wait you are confusing two entities - LUG - Linux User Group - the registered society...where a committee takes decisions (you have to pay a small fee to be registered member of this organization.. though objectives of this entity are while being same as ILUGD but much more too...(as specified in the MOA). & ILUGD - the unofficial group.. comprising folks on mailing lists..quite informal.. anyone has a say as long as they do it in it right time (when opinions are called for)..& place (ILUGD meeting/list).. > Anyways that is not even the main point of that supposedly > objectionable paragraph.
