PADS -- Philadelphia Area Debian Society
About PADS	English (USA)
The Philadelphia Area Debian Society (PADS) was founded in May 1999 by CJ Fearnley to organize a working group of users and developers for improving Debian GNU/Linux based distributions (e.g., Libranet, Knoppix, etc.) and our understanding of them. We have a focused meeting each month on a topic relevant to this Community. Please visit the PADS web site, http://www.LinuxForce.net/pads, for further information about our organization. PADS is primarily intended for advanced users and developers. Users seeking beginner- and intermediate-level discussions might consider our sister organization, PLUG. To see the collection of prior postings to the list, visit the PADS Archives.
