AUS LoCo status?

[Sebastian Spiess]

Not sure if you heard or read about it, and yes I know it's not Ubuntu only but the SLUG team have monthly meetings which
are open to everyone to join in.

I agree with Paul that AU is a huge, vast country and it might be just difficult to meet in large groups more often. (Maybe
not in Sydney though :-D )

I assume that SLUG is the biggest Linux related group meeting regularly in the Sydney area.
For some time there where quite a few Linuxchix meeting announcements for Sydney if I remember correct.

Cheers,
