Welcome Nigel! Back in the dim and distant past we used to meet regularly and that would have been the ideal opportunity to bring along your home HP server and others bring along laptops and see if we couldn't all get things working between us. I think two things stopped those meets. One was having something to talk about - well there was always something to talk about, I remember one evening spent mostly talking about carpets!, but without a focus the meetings tended to drift, and so people tended to drift away from the meets until they stopped. But the second, and likely biggest, reason was lack of a venue to meet at where there was space to set up a few computers, Internet access, etc. I suspect that with your NVR project providing a topic, then if we can find a meeting venue then there may still be a number of PLUG members interested in meeting up? (Hopefully a few people will chip in at this point?) This group still has a reasonable number of members, but I suspect many (like myself) set up mail filtering rules to drop the PLUG mail into a separate folder which - given the lack of traffic for some time - we rarely now check. So it might take a while for anyone to respond, but I don't see why it needs many interested members to get a meet off the ground if we can find somewhere to hold it.
