Since this thread simply refuses to die.... here are my Rs. 0.02.... The real point of contention here is the fact that
whether the ILUG namespace does/doesn't have provision for "ILUG-Debian"... Like many of you I am not comfortable with
the idea of "ILUG-Debian" (I would rather that it was named differently). But I am sure that Khader, Shanu or Gnana
had/have no wish to "make any attempts to break or divide the Indian Linux community". I guess the guys just got a
little carried over and didn't quite think out the implications of such a name. 

But as Raj said, and Atul agrees as well, a separate list or SIG for the Debian users in India is an OK idea... there
are very few of us who use the distro (compared to RedHat and Slackware) -- and IMHO focussed, distro-specific
discussions are better served with a list dedicated to that.
