Hi, I'm in favor to continue CLUG. My interests would be in the personal and maker topics. I have used Fedora in the past as my personal computer and plan on tinkering with my Raspberry Pi. Darcy On 2017-01-12 12:40, frank wrote: I personally belong mostly to the enduser site now. I w

I personally belong mostly to the enduser site now. I was a developer on a HP Superdome but that's a while ago. And I am interested on what is going on at the server side, just to get more depth inside of what is everybody talking (emailing) about, e.g. docker etc. Currently I am using Linux Mi

I think the issue here is that we’re looking at several distinct categories of people who might be interested in a LUG, and it’s hard to be relevant to all of them. In particular, I think there’s a difference between those who use Linux professionally as a major part of their day job, and those wh

This slide to apparent irrelevance has been voiced over and over for years. You bring up some valid points. But who can say what makes this and the other things irrelevant. Think of the first peer to peer design, then came the client server model. Will peer to peer be important again? Look

Looking back on this I responded too quickly but part of my intention was to help spark things a bit. The original concept of a LUG was never under attack - after all the concept is a basic one: meet people, learn and be introduced to new things - but that's rehashing what people already know.

Good evening fellow CLUG-philes, I have observed the posts for the past several years and my take away is that we have lost a bit of relevance. By that I mean we tend to post and discuss topics that are at best dated, and at worst irrelevant to the idea of driving GNU/Linux forward. The world today
