Welcome to the home of Nashik’s GNU User Group (NashGUG) located in Maharashtra, India.

Since Linux is such a popular kernel, we often call ourselves Nashik Linux User Group (NashLUG). Technically though, Linux is just one of many GPL licensed kernels (the other frontrunner being Hurd). Therefore GUG is more correct, but LUG is easier to pronounce. To keep things simple, we answer to either name.

Our aim is to promote free software for fun and profit. Informally, we are a branch of the Free Software Foundation. We try to meet on a regular basis. These meetings serve many purposes including education, career development, and to help the public learn about the advantages of free software. Attendance is always open to one and all (space permitting!).
