In our area, we have a Linux SIG (Special Interest Group), which is a subset of the DFWUUG (Dallas-Fort Worth Unix Users Group). I would expect many to exist across the land. ----- Original Message ----- From: Anders Johansson To: suse-linux-e@suse.com Sent: Wednesday, July 31, 2002 6:15 PM Subject: Re: [SLE] Shut-Down Problem NOT Solved On Thursday 01 August 2002 01.11, Salman Khilji wrote:
It once came to my mind that it would be nice if Linux users formed a community in different cities where people like me had a chance to learn from experts. Where someone could actually take a look at my machine in cases like these. Where software developers (like me) had a chance starting new Open Source projects and had monthly meeting discussing design issues.
If I had this kinda knowlege, I personally wouldn't mind driving for 5 or 10 mintues and helping some stranger with Linux problems/migration from Windows, but thats just me...dunno what others think.
Naaah...maybe I am just dreaming. This ain't gonna happen :(
Linux User Groups (LUGs)? They're around. Haven't been to any meetings myself, but I know they're held at regular intervals. I'm sure there's one where you live too //Anders -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com
