Renaming ILUG ( was Re: [ILUG] Re: Bootable Business Cards )

[david_hamilton3 at hp.com]

I've been on this list for a while, and while I don't take a hugely active 
role, I always thought that this list was for people who use Linux, and 
often other OSs as well, to as each other for advice and help, rather than 
a political forum for discussing the virtues of different licensing 
options.  Surely the way to encourage more users to use Linux has to be by 
helping them get over teething problems, and letting them know of cool 
features and functionality which will help them use Linux on a day to day 
basis instead of Windows.
This has often helped me out in the past when I've come up against a 
problem I can't fix.
Since the general focus of the list is Linux and its various versions, 
surely the name should stay the same?
If not, I vote for Free Unix Users Group of Irish Techies, or FUUGIT for 
short :-).

Let's not blow any gaskets over this one...

	David.
