L U N Y
Linux Users of New York

LUNY is a cashless, all volunteer organization that holds meetings, InstallFests, and special events for the New York area Linux Community.
LUNY can only continue to function if members give back to the community by volunteering to do the tasks necessary in such an organization.

To volunteer please come to a LUNY meeting and introduce yourself to Matt or Gary. If you prefer you can contact us by email ; send to matt@omnipod.com

Two types of volunteer are needed:
• Officers have ongoing responsibilities, usually supervise (and train) a team of assistants, and need to make a long-term committment to their monthly tasks.
• Member volunteers assist officers as part of a team, work on one-time or special projects, and need to commit to a deadline for the task they undertake.
