I think we should have such events separate from LUG meets. The free software community has grown and survived on a spirit of kinship and sharing more than anything else I guess... We need to inculcate these things. Learning will come automatically. The primary purpose of the LUG should be to get Linuxers together - not to spoonfeed and teach people stuff they can learn from a hundred different sources. bah, but what's the use ? We are steeped in bureaucracy... -- quasi Utopia Unlimited! -- http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
