> For a meeting-that-never-was (tm), this number is probably the highest the > LUG has seen. Great enthusiasm really... the future is in safe hands :-) i'm sad .. such enthu .. such momentum .. culmination of the efforts of soo many people .. we need to be very careful, proper & right .. and do what needs to be done .. or else we'll land up again with the status quo ante (some meetings sometimes .. rest of the year blank) i had worked really hard at getting a day of the month (2nd sunday or the saturday before that) fixed as a meeting time .. EVERY month .. naturally i feel sad .. when all the effort resulted in a resounding success .. and seeing the ball slip thru our fingers .. at a time when it would have been the best catch :-(( complacency will get us nowhere .. fixing meeting times thru emails to this list will send meetings to never never land once again .. therefore : we need ONE volunteer as a meeting co-ordinator .. ONE back up person to that volunteer and : we need ONE venue as a fixed venue .. with ONE more venue as a backup venue and : we need ONE pc as a fixed pc .. with ONE more pc as a backup minimum need ! if no one takes up this thankless job of co-ordinating meetings .. i will have to .. and so i will too ! if someone does take up this job .. so that meetings result in meetings ONLY .. i'll die a peaceful person ! this is serious work .. need of the hour .. complacence won't do .. any volunteers ? and please .. NO discussions on this subject .. we've had all the opinions and comments earlier .. and the timings and venues were finalised .. there is absolutely NO need for more emails on THIS aspect its for the volunteer-co-ordinator to deliver meetings .. and we have plenty of venues lined up .. with transport free from a prominent spot to the meeting venue too ! nice people don't mind/complain .. they bear/tolerate .. but THAT doesn't get us moving or going anywhere meetings are a MUST now ! period ! with tech content and other things too .. this is not an option .. its a movement .. which is happening .. we gotta manage the present well .. otherwise .. well ....... ..pk -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the body "unsubscribe ilug-cal" and an empty subject line.
