</div>Yes, but in the same mindset would a non linux user come to a group<br>
named the Linux User Group? our scope and membership covers a wide range<br>
of people but the name of the group is restrictive.<br>

Don't take me wrong, i'm not on about setting topics or enforcing what<br>
people talk about, thats stupid. I'm talking about naming the group<br>
better than what it is. let it reflect the membership, not dictate it.<br>
