<name>The Global BSD User Groups</name>
<url>http://metabug.org/</url>
<description>The Global BSD User Groups organization was founded to help
promote local BSD user groups by helping to share ideas and experiences
with other BUG organizations. Our goals are:
<ul>
<li>Foster inter-BUG relations and communications to increase unity
in the BSD user group communities.</li>
<li>Assist in increasing awareness of smaller user groups in the
community.</li>
<li>Facilitate idea and resource sharing through common access to
meeting presentation topics and materials.</li>
<li>Increase exposure to other BSD projects where local user
groups may have less member interest or experience.</li>
<li>Offer a BSD user group for those without a local BUG.</li>
</ul>
We are working on ways to provide remote participation through streaming
video of presentations. You can check our <a
href="http://metabug.org/">website</a> or contact us via <a
