GLUE is an Acronym for Groups of Linux Users Everywhere.

It is basically a support group for LUGs. There has been some talk of WLUG joining GLUE.

Membership is free.


Membership of GLUE used to cost US$72 and provide the following:

  • A 10% discount on Linux Journal CDs to group members
  • A copy of each of the Linux Journal archive CDROMs
  • A copy of BRU 2000 Backup And Restore Utility
  • A copy of Caldera Systems OpenLinux
  • A copy of TCL Blast!
  • A copy of RedHat Linux
  • A discounted 2-year subscription rate to The Perl Journal for LUG members
  • An enhanced listing with web pointer to the group
  • E-mail list server available for group use
  • 20 free "member" bumper stickers
  • Sample magazines for meeting give-aways/promotion
  • Sample Linux products from participating vendors
  • A subscription to Linux Journal

It's not clear whether any of this is current anymore, or which. Caldera Linux and The Perl Journal have long since gone the way of the dinosaur, f.ex.
