That's what I thought. Though we call ourselves a Linux User Group, to be
honest we are really an open source Unix-like operating system user group.
Very few of us actually really interact with the Linux kernel, if Debian made
GNU/Solaris I'd give it a go - I've no specific loyalty to the Linux kernel,
I'm more attached to my distribution (Debian in my case).
