Anupam Jain wrote: Being involved with ilugc for almost 3 years now, as both physical volunteer and active in mailing list, I just want to add some of our own experiences as a LUG. Every LUG can have two modes of operation which are vital to call it alive or dead - Digital and Physical. Digital activities include Mailing List (which is more or less mandatory) and a web site or wiki. Physical activities include monthly meets, seminars and workshops, etc. Considering mailing lists, its pretty much open to discussions. Though sometimes it gets personal, most times there are enough people and posts for both sides of the coin. But, as far as I have seen, participation in mailing list alone doesn't make one take decisions for a LUG. Although it is true that all people can not make themselves physically present in all the meets, at least they should be know to have attended a few. More physical participation you put, more your voices are heard. Though all issues are posted and discussed in mailing list, mostly whenever a concrete decision was required it was always through meets and physical participation. Decision making in mailing list has rather been ending up in a void state, without a concrete decision been reached mainly due to high volume counter-postings and flame wars. Sometimes we have had polls, example when we wanted to decide about reply-to munging for the mailing list. But, for physical activities it has always been through physical participations i.e. meets. Such meets are announced prior, those who are interested in decision making participate, those who are not in chennai do mail their voices before the meeting and the final decision is to the people who attend the meeting, mostly the most active 10-20 people of the LUG. I think, this is not much different from what have been happening in at least the other 2 LUGs i mentioned. Though Delhi LUG may be a registered body, still AFAIK follows a similar method where important decisions are taken through meetings and physical voting. -- With Regards Parthan (TechnoFreak) .

It may have been due to valid reasons Look I haven't attended an ILUGD event for ages and yet I was keenly aware that this was going on for quite some time. There is usually a pretty large overlap between the folks who turn up for these meetings and the people who actually end up doing the work during the event, so not having an online poll of some sort make exactly zero difference. Besides that, I doubt that anyone's personal right to show up at LA as an ILUGD member was somehow taken away.

I'm not sure if that fact makes me a lesser member of the ILUGD community, but I'd appreciate it if more things were kept on the mailing list. Since you are not in Delhi, I would assume that the decision for ILUGD to participate would have had no concrete effect on your being present to help out. What makes ILUGD different from other LUGs is that it is based in Delhi. I am sure that the Oslo Linux User Group would welcome me with open arms if I chose to join their mailing list, but it wouldn't surprise me if they took it poorly if I felt that I had some sort of right to dictate their involvement in events in Oslo via online poll. -Taj. ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/

This is one of the few forums that I have no hesitation in speaking my mind, and, unlike some other people, I stand by every word I say. I am quite aware that these are archived, and I am carefully choosing my words: Fuck you, and the horse you rode in on!. I hope that is clear enough. I will never again waste my time arguing with you. And, *please*, feel free to quote me on that. [Anything without any value kept] Anupam, KENNETH, Gora, Sriram, Anant, Mahesh T. Pai, Vivek Khurana Sab log kyu bandwidth kha rahe ho? Why are you wasting bandwidth and web space on useless discussion. broadband ka jamana hai... must have a night unlimited plan.. How about setting an Arena and giving sticks to everyone and have a group stick fight. Winner gets a XBOX (sorry no Linux based gaming consoles yet) heard than people got PS2 XBOX running linux.. ofcourse lesser games on it..!
