|I believe groups such as SLUG owe it to the community to make political
|stands on computer literacy.
Probably a non-controversial thing that SLUG can do is create a mailing
list or even host a web page for it on the SLUG server, if someone is
willing to put up their hand for it. If it concerns schools, there's
already a mailing list for this: Linux in Australian Schools
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> which I am the list owner of. Go to
http://lists.linux.org.au to subscribe. This just means I get bounce
reports, I don't moderate or anything. There is no web page, but I'm
totally happy for someone to put up their hand to be webmaster.
I agree with what you are proposing; it's just that a discussion on this
may not be what other SLUGers want to read on this list.
PS: Instead of writing "I believe X owes it to Y to do Z", write: "I
will do Z because I believe in L". This is more likely result in action
instead of talk.
