Judy and all,

I am OK with any name, to be honest.

There will be a learning curve and explaining what WPLUG stands for ... much the same way you have to clarify hockey vs. computers.

We at ComputeReach are international in our scope, so I think, IMOHO,  spreading "linux" as a household word would serve your overall cause of promoting linux and better.

I would be happy to have little Tux logos everywhere right along side Apple logos.

 

Dave

No, I don't know when.  It is for "tweens" and up.  Keep an eye on my website at:www.authorhouse.com, enter my name or book title for further information. AuthorHouse will be the first one to have copies so just hang in there.  It'll be finished before you know it.   (At least I hope so.)
