It seems like the core of a users group already
exists here at Tech, but it's not as accessible as it could be because
of the "gt" in our name. Why don't we:

	1) Call ourselves ALUG (Atlanta Linux User's Group).
	2) Change the gtlinux at cc list to alug at cc.
	3) Have a weekly or monthly meeting where we sit around
		and talk about linux - avoiding the one guy
		at the front of the room looking like a geek.
	4) Elect V or Greg president.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't see any need to affiliate with AUUG.

That's a great idea.
