Unofficial Community Leadership
The past unofficial Jacksonville Linux Users Group has had various forms of leadership, and only at one point in history, from 2003-2004, was it ever a legal leadership, proper legal structure and official legal titles. The rest of the time, there was either no titles or the fake titles others preferred of "president", "vice president", and "secretary", which are all legal titles, but given no legal entity, had no legal authority or power. It is just all play organization vs real organization.
This page does not confer any official titles or authority past nor present or future, it just serves as some record of who were the "leaders" at any given time, since no other such record exists, or has ever been compiled, or even attempted.
Official Leaders
The past official Jacksonville Linux User Group, Inc. existed for one year, from 2003 to 2004, this is the only time the titles were legal and as such had authority and power, not made up titles. These titles were registered with the State of Florida, official public record.

Unofficial Leaders
The past unofficial Jacksonville Linux Users Group has had a variety of people fulfilling various roles with and without unofficial titles. It should also reflect a lack of diversity and rising leaders in the later decades.
