Personally I've got nothing against committees, providing they're run properly, have a chair who's unbiased but firm, and have a membership who are determined and varied. Unfortunately, almost invariably they lack in one or more of the above areas.
What do other people think? I'm quite happy to see a committee formed if that's what everyone else thinks would be best, but I'm not sure that it would be in our best interests.

Lets take it a step further, who thinks/feels we need an organising committee? I do, and I am prepared to be a member/maintainer/organiser but not only by myself though. I don't want to tread on the toes of the people who formed the alug as that would be bad karma. I just feel we need some kind of organisation going on to be able to advocate Linux in the east Anglian region. Can I/we hear some comments ?
