ILUGC was started on 1997 and it is an one of the oldest Linux Users Group in India. We are a heterogeneous group of computer users from the South Indian city of Chennai (a.k.a Madras), united in our use of Free/Libre/Open Source Software and support of Software Freedom in general and GNU/Linux in particular. Most of our monthly meetings see a technical talk, not necessarily on GNU/Linux but also on FSF/GNU/OSS/BSD related topics such as Perl, Python, PHP, FreeBSD, TCP, IP, etc,. We meet regularly on every month, second Saturday, with technical talks and discussions on various Free software.

If you have any questions, doubts or stuck on something in Linux and related technologies, Feel free to join our mailing-list and send a mail. People from ilugc hangout in #ilugc channel on libera.chat IRC network. You can also directly contact ilugc members through the chat link (given above) to get quick response.
