My first suggestion/contribution is that we need to coordinate
the fostering and formation of FreeBSD user groups. I started
this thought about a month ago here for a New York City UG,
and am about to push on that. Maybe through the news letter
and www.freebsd.org we can encourage and coordinate this.

This is a kind of 'think globally, act locally.' Local user
groups can take advantage of oportunities to appear
and educate. The FreeBSD Inc. side can take responsibility
for national/international media. The local UGs will be
able to contribute both material as well as momentum to
the effort.

If there is a consensus, I would be glad to work on this
thing.

Dan
