[Tfug] Linux SIG mtg, 4th Sunday

[Keith Smith]

Has the Tucson Free Unix Group (TFUG) merged with the Tucson Computer 
Society (TCS)?

I spent most of my adult life in Tucson and watched and attended both in 
the late 1990's and early 2000's until my move to Metro Phoenix.  I was 
the TCS Linux SIG leader for a short while in 2001 or 2002.

TCS required dues to attend.  The SIG was mostly retired men who were 
hobbyist.

TFUG on the other hand was a free spirited group of novices and hardcore 
Linux geeks.  I attended some of their meeting in the early 2000's as 
well.  Unless TFUG has changed, it is very similar to PLUG.

Is the goal to try to bring all these groups together?  If so I think 
that is a great idea.

 From a learning perspective it is good and from a political perspective 
it is good as well.  If all the LUG's were to network we could have a 
collective voice that could effect change or stop some of the change 
that is not good for us.
