PLUG do not have a "leader" but they do have a list admin, and it's me, and with it comes some responsibilities.
I need to remind people here that personal attacks are not called for, and there have been a couple of posts heading in that direction recently, and long standing members will recall how little things have grown out of all proportion in the past. Some things to remember: - We don't all have the same views, but we should all be able to co-exist. - We don't all necessarily speak English as a first language, and some people will have other difficulties (eg dyslexia, blindness resulting in use of a screen reader to use the list, etc). - We are all individuals, but it's very easy to get the impression that the list or the LUG has a personality of its own (which they do not and cannot have). Please can everyone take a breath and decide whether they want to be part of the LUG and its mailing list. Those that do, can we please focus on working out what we want from the LUG and how to achieve it - Linux should be able to deliver something for everyone and PLUG should be there to help it achieve that. Suggestions for how to improve the LUG, where to meet, what to do when we meet, and so on, are all welcome. Personal attacks will not be tolerated and if that means I need to act as censor to remove people from the list then I can and will do that. (I do not read or moderate messages before they reach the list, nor have I plans to.) None of the above is aimed at anyone in particular, and I am more than happy to talk to anyone on- or off-list about it. -- Mark Rogers // More Solutions Ltd (Peterborough Office) // 0844 251 1450 Registered in England (0456 0902) @ 13 Clarke Rd, Milton Keynes, MK1 1LG _______________________________________________ Peterboro mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/peterboro
