Good point!! Let's lay it out in bullet points to make it easier for me! lol

Again, please give us you opinion and ideas! :)


=> MsgLUG
Pros:
- Uses Linx in the name instead of Ubuntu

Cons:
- Can be mistaken by Message instead of Mississauga


=> MUMU
Pros:
- Catchy and "cute"
- Has no connection to the acronym LUG and all the guidelines we would be expected to follow

Cons:
- Uses Ubuntu in the name instead of Linux

Hmm...  I do a lot of work with messaging systems.  I would pronounce 
"MsgLUG"  as "Message LUG".  

Which is not a bad LUG to have, although it would probably attract the 
proprietary software crowd (Exchange, GroupWise).
