After all, as has been pointed out in the debate, it's the licensing model
that really gives us the legal freedom to discuss change, and the group
would then be relevant to a much broader section of users and more relevant
to this time of patent politics. My selfish interest is that I use plenty
of GPL'ed software, and I am concerned with its function, but as for the
Linux, I use it, but it is by and large irrelevant to most of what I do.


Actually I have been wondering to myself recently about whether DCFSUG would 
be an appropriate title (doesn't exactly roll off the tongue though does 
it?), as in Free Software User Group. I think this is actually quite 
descriptive of what we are and do, since we don't just focus on [Gnu/]Linux 
but also on all the Free Software around the OS.

But I fear this would confuse people even more than DCGLUG would...
