Tue, Nov 21st 10:12pm 2006: Linux

Andrew Chalmers from Linux Users Victoria joined the Linux Australia committee on our weekly teleconf last week, and it was a really useful conversation. LA is meant to be following the "upside down umbrella" model as a support mechanism for LUGs (among other things) but something I've been discovering recently is that a remarkable number of LUG members have no idea what LA is about or what it does. Inviting LUG organisers onto the committee teleconf was a very cool idea that came out of our last face-to-face meeting in Melbourne. I can't remember who suggested it, but whoever it was - thanks!
One of the things that came out of our conversation was that I offered to go along to LUV and do a "Meet Linux Australia" talk.
So if you're involved in organising a LUG and would like to have a chat to the LA committee on our teleconf or have your nearest committee member come along and speak at your LUG please drop us an email.
