User Group Aims:
* To exchange Linux and Open Source Software knowledge and
experience.
* To encourage the use of Linux and Open Source Software
Mailing list and website rules:
* We abide by the rules of the provider of the mailing lists and
venues. Please respect this. On our main mailing list, hosted
by Naos, this means no advertising on the list or website. At
all. However, notifying others of GNU/Linux media available for
swap when a new distribution is released is acceptable.
* If you are looking to get rid of old computer equipment you may
want to join the recompute-wellington mailing list:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://groups.google.com/group/recompute-wellington">http://groups.google.com/group/recompute-wellington</a>
<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:recompute-wellington+subscribe@googlegroups.com"><recompute-wellington+subscribe@googlegroups.com></a>
Mailing list Guidelines:
* The purpose behind these guidelines is to clarify what you need
to do to help WellyLUG create an effective and enjoyable
atmosphere that will foster a sense of community.
* They are by their nature optional but are designed to help
facilitate smoother interpersonal relations. These are not
rules. They are simply some common sense practical tips to help
keep our LUG humming. Humming is good
* Try to keep all commentary civil, and be courteous. Try to
refrain from using coarse or insulting language. Constructive
criticism in the spirit of genuine dialogue is welcome, but
insults directed towards other members will not be well
received.
* Some people are interested in the political aspects of free and
open source software. Others are more interested from a hobbyist
perspective. The LUG embraces both.
* If you are in serious conflict with someone by e-mail, take a
deep breath and wait an hour or sleep on it before replying!
And if it still winds you up, then take it off list.
Keep in mind the following:
* It's a much better feeling to resolve a conflict in a way that
improves the relationship you have with your fellow members,
which benefits everyone including yourself.
* Look beyond short term frustrations to the longer term future of
the group.
* Sometimes people might have a bad day. Forgive them, no one is
immune to a visit from Mr Grumpy.
* Clarify individual perceptions involved in the conflict. You
can't solve a problem if you don't know what it is about.
* Sort the parts of the conflict -- ask what it is about. Avoid
ghost conflicts -- get to the heart of the matter and avoid side
issues. (Ghost conflicts where the heart of the problems are not
being dealt with directly, and instead minor or side matters are
given all the attention. Can happen when people are upset or
irritable with each other, or when the real conflict is deemed
too sensitive).
* Clarify what, if any, values are involved.
* If you pause to think about it, you may recognise that the
parties involved need each other to be most effective in forming
a healthy LUG community.
* Additionally, clarify your perceptions of the other party. Avoid
stereotyping. Try to listen carefully.
* Recognise the other's needs and values. Try to empathise -- ask
why they feel the way they do. Clear up misconceptions you may
have of them.
