ABOUT US

Simple: this is a BSD user group called NYCBUG (pronounced "nice bug"). This is like-minded people getting together under a single interest. Everyone is welcome. There is no official membership, no dues, and no requirements. We meet periodically to listen to presentations and discuss issues affecting users today. We also sponsor local install fests and assist the BSD family in various ways. If you are interested, please join our MAILING LISTS and check out our next meeting. Some of these like-minded folks hang out on #nycbug on freenode - it's a nice place for people to hang out and waste time getting to know each other.

Aside from all the obvious things a User Group does, we hope to provide a "forum for discussion and a bridge to learning". You will find BSD advocates here at NYCBUG, and some may even be evangelical. While our opinions may be strong, this does NOT mean to the exclusion of others or others` opinions. We hope you agree that sharing knowledge and occasionally teaching someone who does not know, is good for all. We hope you agree that all open source is a good thing... regardless of mascot or license. We do not find the words free|open offensive.

* Discussion is encouraged, BASHING is not.
* Bridging is encouraged, RTFM is not

NYCBUG should be a BSD success story spreading more BSD success stories.
