The GNU/Linux Stammtisch actually isn't a PLUG event. I specifically keep
it independent in an attempt to make sure everyone feels welcome to
attend. We've stayed near ASU to be convenient for the students, but we
now seldom get people from the uni :(.

I used to announce the Stammtisch on the ASULUG list, but I really haven't
participated there for a few years.

As chairman of PLUG ( and former president of ASULUG ) I can say PLUG
would love to see participation between the groups. There's no reason for
ASULUG members to not consider themselves PLUG members if they also
participate in PLUG.

I know ASULUG usually has several people from PLUG helping out at the
InstallFests.

If you've started picking up ASU West members you might want to include
the DeLUG meetings as well as PLUG's west side meeting.

By all means. I'd love to see us consolidate efforts :).

Howdy. :)
