It was just 2 days ago when I spoke to nbliang (one of the founder of KuchingOSC), and he asked me whether there is any Open Source community in Kota Kinabalu (KK). I have no idea if there is any, because in my few years of exposure to Open Source, I have not heard of any related communities in KK. Of course, he asked me to start a community that is based in KK so we can promote FOSS. Unfortunately, I am unable to do so, due to the fact that I am currently not based in KK, so it will be a little harder for me.

So, I was reading through Google Reader, and stumbled across a post by drizad. He started Kota Kinabalu Linux User Group (KKLUG). Hopefully this effort can gather as many Linux / Open Source supporters in KK, and be one of the gateway to promote FOSS in the state. Thanks for that, drizad.

Maybe BarCamp KK? ;)
