This is the newest technical user group in Waco, and though the name says Linux User Group, users of all Open Source operating systems are welcome, from Linux to FreeBSD to even Solaris... Heck, even if you are a FreeDOS user, welcome aboard :)

The purpose of HOTLUG is to bring the Open Source philosophy to the Waco community, and to give those interested in the Open Source model place to learn and teach about FOSS (Free and Open Source Software).  Our goal is also to advocate the fact that you do have a choice, and through Open Source software, you can truly take control of your computer.

Our meetings are free and open to anyone, as is our website.  If you're interested in getting involved, jump into our Message Forum or IRC channel and say Hey.   Also know, there are no 'dumb' questions, and you won't get an RTFM or *plonk*.  We're all here to have fun, learn from each other, and experience what the world of Open Source software has to offer.

So with that, I'll welcome you to HOTLUG, and simply say... have fun.
