I'm happy that the ILUG acronym has been maintained, but I cant say I like
the new name much.

What or who constitutes a "Libre User"? How can anybody be a "user of
freedom"? I dont consider myself an expert in English, but "Indian Libre
User Group" sounds grammatically incorrect as well. Libre is an adjective,
not a noun. So it can't be a ready replacement for "linux". (though I may be
wrong about this)

I can think of at least three people I know who can be convinced that the
"Indian Libre User Group" is a naxalite group operating in the North East.
;P

So this isnt just about software anymore? Freedom and truth are both
subjective. Are we going to include fields totally unrelated to computers
and technology within the scope of ILUG?
