[As noted by Raj, this discussion should move to the Freed mailing list (copied on this message). All future follow-ups there.]

Um, this discussion was more about the focus of the event, Freed.in, rather than about ILUG-Delhi, or LUGs in general. In that context, or even generally, I strongly disagree. The "free" in "free software" is more interesting than the "software". > As the Bangalore experience shows, the moment a LUG get's above > itself, it is in trouble, it fails to attract new blood, becomes > irrelevant and it's goodwill vanishes into the hands of people with > different aims to that of a LUG. [...] I have no idea what relevance the above has, and have no interest in digging up past skeletons. So, will let this pass without comment. It would make more sense if you could put this into the context of the current discussion. How are the discussions to date in any way a matter of "a LUG getting above itself"? As always, Freed.in will be what the community wants it to be. Aren't you rather the one trying to mandate that XYZ is what a LUG should do?
