Question: Is this forum competing with the U2 Users Group?

[precisonline]

Absolutely not.  The U2UG (www.u2ug.org) lists and knowledgebase should be considered the first line of technical information and assistance for Unidata, Universe, and SB+.  This list is intended to be secondary to those lists and if these ever become competitive with the U2UG, we will yield to that fine organization.  Bottom line, these lists exist solely to help people, not muddy the water or create any sort of political tension with any well established organization(s).
