Due to the unprecedented response, the ad hoc committee just held a telephone conference and determined that we would not be going ahead with the establishment of an independent group. This decision was made after careful consideration of the following references:

RFC4041
Google Gulp

and the following article from The Register:

At this point, the ad hoc committee would like to express its appreciation for all the feedback. Thank you.

After a great deal of discussion at tonights progsig meeting, we decided it was time to split off from CLUG and become a stand alone group. The general sentiment was that we, as a group, needed to focus on programming in its purest form, being platform, language, and technology agnostic.

In order to start the process of getting organized, an ad hoc committee was selected, consisting of Kin Wong, Janet Leong, Rob Stallard, and William Astle. Immediately after the general progsig meeting concluded, the ad hoc committee met and selected William as interim president. The committee decided on the following parameters for the group:

- membership will be open to all programmers or those interested in
programming
- the membership fee will be around $50/year in order to support such initiatives as a library for programmers
- meetings will continue on the last Thursday of the month


The ad hoc committee will be meeting in the near future to finalize plans for the establishment of progsig as its own group.
