Not much discussion of this since the weekend, eh? For reference, I have
the teleconference room booked through December 2004. Now for the
tougher part: getting people to commit to covering the infrastructure
tasks mentioned above.
<standing here tapping my foot...>
Who wants a LUG? Let's not all be shy now...
I will show up (or find a sub), do my best impression of Jim or Hans*
(announcements, introduce the presenter) and, given demand, facilitate
net access. Who else would like to play? 8-)
I'm assuming for the moment that the first GC-PLUG-TNG** meeting would
be January 27 '04.

* Jim and Hans have an open invitation to continue announcing meetings,
of course :-)
