Subject: SSLUG welcomes member number 5000

Skåne Sjælland Linux User Group welcomed member number 5000.

SSLUG continues, with its now more than 5000 members, to be
among the largest Linux user groups in the world. When we,
eighteen months ago, passed 1000 members it was predicted
that we would enter the year 2000 with 5000 members. - It
did take almost three months more.

We are very happy for the large interest, people show
Linux and Open Source / Free software, and we hope that
it also means that we can look forward to a growing
number of Open Source developers in Denmark. In
addition to SSLUG reaching the 5000 members, it is also
enjoyable that there now are around ten other Linux
user groups in Denmark, where several of them already
have more than 500 members. We in SSLUG hope that they
will have a similar success.

Skåne Sjælland Linux User Group (SSLUG) is a
Swedish/Danish Linux user group with a high level of
activity through 21 mailing lists, meetings, and
conferences. It is, in the true Linux (or is it Linus)
spirit free of charge to be a member. SSLUG was founded
in 1996.

There is more information about the activities in SSLUG on
our web site http://www.sslug.dk
