[Sussex] Moot

I think I might be responsible for this.  I am an avid Tolkien fan and
"Moot" in this case comes from the "Entmoot".  In our case it would be a
"Slugmoot".  However the word to "Moot" is quite applicable to us, as the
definition of the word is to debate or discuss some topic.  Therefore as we
meet together to discuss Linux it could be a Linux-Moot.

All the best

(ps. Sorry I could'nt make it last night, I had to go out with my girlfriend
last night.  Besides - no hard feelings, but she's prettier than you lot
anyhow!)

Hope to see you at the next moot.

Angelo.
