Ok then by that definition I'm probably a LUG because I promote everything. But I still don't want to exclude you from advertisement at my Linux Fest and I don't want LoCo to exclude LUGs from advertisement that want to help LoCo by promoting every Linux distro. Maybe what we need is a common ground site. One like this <a href="http://www.listphile.com/Linux">http://www.listphile.com/Linu</a><a href="http://www.listphile.com/Linux">x</a> that lists every location and what it is. By using this particular site you will be getting more traffic and if others from other states and cities see this site listed on your site they will find closer groups that they can get to. This will get rid of the frustration of finding support. So yes I think that every LoCo, LUG, or whatever should use this map site and also promote it. Is there anything wrong with that?

Of course, isn't that what we all want? Every single person that switches to Free Software is a steep forward, without having much importance to what exactly (s)he switches. The point is just that if you are on a Ubuntu LoCo it's because you personally thing that Ubuntu is a good way to let people know Free Software, as Martin explained. As well as if you join a user team of any other distribution it's because you thing that this other distribution is better for the same objective, or as if you don't really matter about distributions but just want to promote it in a more general manner, then you'd probably go for a LUG. -- Siegfried-Angel Gevatter Pujals (RainCT) Linux User #438657.
