That's what I'm trying to say.
Since the group is trying to populate itself, let's get ANYONE that is
interested in *nix systems, regardless of their background and experience.
:)
That's all :)

My 2 cents...since every else has commented on this :)
I think we should have "Linux" in the name of the group.
We don't have to alienate other *nix users, but we should have a focus. Its
hard to pass info back and forth about a large topic, and if we covered ALL
free-unix-like Os's then it would be difficult with just monthly meetings.
Just my opinion. I rather focus on Linux but if someone wanted to talk about
how they use FreeBSD for a firewall Im not going to yell at them "This is a
LINUX group."

I realize that the name i picked(Savannah Near by Area Free Unix Users) has
not been the biggest hit but i choose it was so that people who use "other"
Unix's/OS's would not feel that they were second rate or not welcome. I use
LInux for 98 % of what i do. 2% being DR-Dos and WINE. i also have disks
for Solaris and freeBSD. I've played with them from time to time. I also
find BEos interesting, but have not taken the time to look into it.
besides, I figure that if i can't try these others from time to time to see
how they perform then how will i know that the one i'm using is still best
for me.
I would appreciate it if every effort could be made not to alienate those
who use other forms of unix, especially the free unix's.
