The Global BSD User Groups organization was founded to help promote local BSD user groups by helping to share ideas and experiences with other BUG organizations.
Goals

    * Foster inter-BUG relations and communications to increase unity in the BSD user group communities.
    * Assist in increasing awareness of smaller user groups in the community.
    * Facilitate idea and resource sharing through common access to meeting presentation topics and materials.
    * Increase exposure to other BSD projects where local user groups may have less member interest or experience.
    * Offer a BSD user group for those without a local BUG.

Were working on ways to provide remote participation through streaming video of presentations.

State Changed
From-To: open->closed

Entry added, thanks! As it is a global movement, it was a bit difficult to put 
this into a category of place. I added it under "North America" since most of 
the member BUGS seem to be in North America. 
You will see the entry on the website some hours later, when our pages have 
been rebuilt from the repository.
