Hello to all of those that have posted (actually hello to everyone). I have returned from a much needed 5 day vacation so was not able to respond or take part in the discussion in a timely manner. To cut to the meat of the subject, Ben is correct in that at a late beer drinking session after a MELBA meeting, the concensus of those present was to let the NH non-profit lapse until possibly at a future time or we felt the need, ie- the rebirth of the Linux Business Show or after we had a real discussion on the merit of continuing along the Non-profit path. I am probably in the minority that think that it was a mistake to let it lapse but the cost to do it again is not that great. So officially at this point in time and history we are not even NH listed non-profit corp entity of any type. We expird in June I believe. Can we renew? I will have to find out if we have a majority of Steering Committee votes for it. The voting members of the Steering Committee are as chosen two years ago at the original Steering Committee meeting. If any of the LUGS have chosen new Chairmen, etc, then those should be the new Steering Committee members per our agreement at the first Steering Committee meeting. Jerry Kubeck - Chairman GNHLUG, Chairman Monadlug Charlie Farinella - Monadlug Rich Payne - Monadlug Paul Lussier - Chairman MELBA Jeff Smith - Vice Chair GNHLUG, MELBA Rob Lembree - MELBA Mike Ledoux - (was SLUG) now ?? Rob Anderson - Chairman SLUGs Bob Sparks - Chairman Centralug Ed Lawson - Centralug Bruce Dawson - Centralug Though Ben Scott is not an official Steering Committee member, but a very active member of the GNHLUG I do propose he be added as a voting member. He has more than once offered to be part of the GHLUG web efforts and someday will probably actually be a major part of the Website development. Lori Hitchcock has resigned from the SLUG Chair so her spot should be given to Martha Jo Marthy who has stepped in to help Rob Anderson with the SLUGs. Our Keene Steering Committee members should be Derek Doucette and whomever is this years Vice Chairman. If the Northern NH groups want to participate, then they need to select two or three from the group to be acknowledged as part of the GNHLUG Steering Committee.
