Official Announce: Euro LUGs Network Project started

http://kwiki.ffii.org/index.cgi?EuroLugsEn
----------------------------------------------------------
Our goal:

Join forces with all european Free Software/Linux User Groups and
associations which care for the spread of Free Software in order to
coordinate events, organize european-wide actions, share information and
announces, and so on.

You can find the original draft of the project goals here.

All european Linux User Groups and other similar local or national
associations are invited to partecipate!

We would hope to have (at least) one official representative subscribed
to the mailing list for each LUG, group and/or association.
Join now!

The history:

Many LUGs from all over Europe met in Brussels on April 14-15 2004 for
the "Euro LUG party" organized by the Greens-ALE group in the European
Parliament, and participated to the demostration and workshop against
software patents organized by the Foundation for a Free Information
Infrastructure.

During these two days, people agreed that it would be a good idea to
have an european network of LUGs and associations which care for Linux,
Free, Libre and Open Source software (FLOSS) and related subjects, in
order to better represent this community inside Europe and when
interacting with european institutions. You can find a list of all LUGs
present in Bruxelles here: http://wiki.ael.be/index.php/EuroLug
