Yeah. They are a good bunch. I have attended a couple of of GLLUG, well, one GLLUG, one Lonix and had a good time having never met anyone there before. > I've read on some lists that some women feel uncomfortable in attending > an entirely social meeting (especially if you don't know anybody) but > are happy with something more structured. > I had never considered that. I have no clue to be honest about what women would want out of a LUG meeting. We have a few women who regularly attend our LUG meets, and it would be great if we knew if there's anything specific they need. We have a questionaire which we are preparing and hopefully we can get some info from the members about what they want. > Anyway - we seem to have more women active than there are in Ubuntu-UK > (!) so we must be doing something right.. > \o/ Cheers, Al. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
