Re: [Sheflug] Poll: Are occasional posts about SlugBug meets OK?

"Do you object if someone posts an announcement to the Sheflug mailing list about a forthcoming Slugbug meeting?"

I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to announce your meetings as other local LUGs do. I don't attend meetings regularly, but have been to one or two, I hope that doesn't mean that I cannot comment on this.

I have no idea what the problem is between the two LUGs, but it is sad if they cannot learn to coexist. I didn't know about slugbug, and am glad I have been informed about it. I plan to find out more about it. It was my understanding that LUGs should have a similar attitude to the larger open source movement - where forks and differences are embraced on the whole.

I think if there is a problem between the two groups they can hopefully discuss it in the open, and come to some kind of agreement to coexist. I would hate to think the list is being censored due to some personal differences - but I obviously do not know the full story...
