What is GLLUG all about, then?
GLLUG stands for Greater London Linux User Group. We are a diverse group of people from all walks of life who just happen to share an interest in the GNU/Linux operating system.
We communicate mostly using a mailing list and discuss all aspects of using and promoting Linux and open source software in general. GLLUG organises regular meetings for members to get together. |  | There is no formal membership, just join the mailing list, come and chat on the IRC channel, or turn up at a meeting. Everybody's welcome. Although the name says London, we have members situated in many places outside London, even outside the UK.
Who runs GLLUG?There is a GLLUG Admin team that communicate using a mailing list. [1] Some members of the admin team maintain the mailing lists, some organise meetings and others are more involved in moderating the IRC channel. There is always more work to be done so if you would like to be involved please join the mailing list.
How can I find out more about GLLUG members?Some of the GLLUG members of maintain personal blogs. These are aggregated on a website so you can read them all in a single place. Visit http://planet.gllug.org.uk/.
What other activities does GLLUG organise?GLLUG has an active social mailing list that organises meetings in the Central London area. These are infrequent, tend to be spontaneous and often involve the consumption of beer. These meetings are a good chance for GLLUG members to meet socially and chat about work, life, Linux and things in general.
There is a GLLUG Social mailing list which you can join to be notified of meetings.
There is also a Python Study group. This was formed by a group of GLLUGers who wanted to further their knowledge of the Python [3] programming language.
