So FSF India it is. Forget about registering GLUG. Only one assurance neede from FSF India - Money dispersed to donor lugs should be a reasonable proportion of their donations. This will ensure that non donor Lugs do not become a drain on others. I guess B'lore will be ahead in donating. > > Actually money involvement is least for running GLUG: if CDs selling > is left completely to the person who is burning, who sells and keeps > the extra money with him/her, and now and then if s/he wishes > contributes to FSF. Distributing CD's is not a profitable business unless the charges are about Rs.400-500 per cd at volumes of less than hundred a month. > Having spent my time for a national body already in getting it > registered, I am not in favor of getting into another.
