Hi Saksham|Shailesh,

Thanks for your mail and wishes for the long life of our beloved LUG.

Regarding the points you have raised this is what I would like to say:

1. The number of members is always reflected on the SunnyLUG Y! page itself.
You've gotta visit the page once in a while to know the membership strength.
Here is the link:
http://in.groups.yahoo.com/group/SunCityJodhpurLUG/
Current membership strength is 130

2. Our LUG is listed at- Linux Users Groups Worldwide
(http://lugww.counter.li.org/index.cms) and Linux For You's LUG Corner
(http://www.linuxforu.com). Not just that every issue of the 'Linux For You'
magazine also lists our LUG. Moreover the moderators from time to time contact
people in and around the city as well as out side also to join the group. It is
also the responsibility of every member to promote the group and invite members.

3. As for the reasons as to why some people do not want join a group is
something very complicated. I have not come acros a single person not willing to
join because of a problem associated with our LUG.

I have always been seeking active participation from both local and outside
members. But that is not so easy. And frankly my busy schedule also poses
limitations at my end. Within our limited resources and time all the concerned
are doing there best to promote this group.

Lot of things are easier said than done.
