Welcome to the new scosug.org!

What is SCOSUG?

SCOSUG is the Southern Connecticut Open Source User Group. Our members enjoy using aspects of open source software from operating systems to applications and programming. We are based in Southern Connecticut but you don't need to live here to belong!

Why "Open Source" and not just a "LUG"?

The members of SCOSUG are very diverse and use all forms of open source software. This includes but isn't limited to Linux. So why should we limit the group? We discuss and use everything open source!

How do I join?

Just sign up on the website and participate in the forums, or show up at a meeting! There is no fee to join and everyone is welcome. No matter your skill from complete beginner to certified systems administrators.

How can I help?

If you have an idea for a meeting or an event, just sign up and post your idea. Volunteers are always needed to help out at events. Watch our forums or mailing list and help out where you can!

(And, uh, by the way, what's with the squirrel...?)

He's our mascot, Stephan. It's also a kind of inside joke thing, but one that we'd be happy to share with you. Come to our next meeting and ask us about it. :)
