Groups

This is us! Michigan!/usr/group is the oldest Unix™ based user group in the Detroit area. We’ve been around since 1986, but that doesn’t mean that we’re a bunch of old farts (well, some of us are)! We have a lot of members, and we cover all kinds of Unix and Linux related topics at our monthly meetings. We meet on the second Tuesday of each month. Since Covid, all meetings have been held online. It’s been going so well that way, we’ll likely continue this for the foreseeable future.  Check our homepage for meeting announcements.
