Back then I only had a 56 kbps dial-up connection, and downloading linux wasn't really an option. I visited the linux-egypt website to know from where I can buy linux CDs
And sometimes I just need an egyptian to talk to, explain to him my linux problem and get his feedback
Other times I just feel like talking about the presence and the future of free software in egypt
So I think, my conclusion is, as long as distance and culture matters, lug, (local linux help) will continue to matter.

I know bahram, he helped found the first LUG in the region. But he's not doing anything for this event. Look at the post; it's all basically an ad for a one-man distro a friend of his made.

We had a fork in the LUG a few months back because it wasn't being run democratically and it had turned into a stagnant online forum.

We the forkers are here.

Check out our charter, you can tell by it what we wanted to change and by extension why we forked. Oh, and it's going beautifully now.
