How about this. I reworded some of the stuff to be more positive. Rather than 
attempting things, we're going to do it.

I also shortened some long sentences that seemed to run on for a long time and 
and make reading difficult by continuing on without any end in sight except for 
the end of the paragraph.

To this end:

We are a resource for anyone who desires to use or learn about this world class 
software. This includes making software and support available at our meetings 
for anyone interested in installing the GNU/Linux Operating System.

Perhaps even more importantly than our being available for first time users of 
Free Software, we also will be a resource for those currently using the 
GNU/Linux system.

We will be a constant resource for support of Free Software via the Internet. In 
order to accomplish this goal, we will use both this website and our mailing 
list. On the web site, you will find a collection of tutorials, descriptions of 
both group and individual projects, and instuctions for joining our mailing 
list. On the mailing list, we are available to answer questions, help solve 
problems and keep members informed.

We are a group whose excellence, the quality of it's events, and dedication to 
GNU/Linux, attracts individuals who already have experience, skill, and 
knowledge with regard to Free Software and computing. Not to mention those who 
are interested in furthering the progress of GNU/Linux by attending meetings, 
helping others, promoting GPL and otherwise contributing.

Furthermore, we will discuss, encourage and create the challenges which Free 
Software can solve. All with the intention of increasing the knowledge and skill 
of our members so that they in turn will be able to share those skills and that 
knowledge with other and future members of the group.
