Q>What happens at an ALUG meeting? Do I need to bring anything? A>A meeting tends to consist of an informal gathering where members turn up with various computers and network them together, then compare various OS, linux-related hints, swap software etc. It isn't necessary to bring any hardware along, however: you can come just to watch and learn, or ask questions. Bring biscuits!

The answer will be...
Anyone can post if they are having a problem, newbies are welcome although it would be advisable to look at the links in the FAQ first and see if there is a better forum to ask the question or an answer elsewhere.
(of course this means that I have to write the FAQ and get all the links in first)
On the other hand if we setup an alug-newbies list then we can encourage posting there (subject to what I said above) Adam
