In message 54C712DAAB5F41208F437F6B07441D2C@d3hkh9x94, Dilwyn Jones dil...@evans1511.fsnet.co.uk writes Hi Dilwyn, Just to keep you busy with some 'copy' ... :-) The London QL Quanta Group started 2011 with its first Meeting of the Year on our new schedule - Sunday 13th February 2011. The Welsh Congregational Chapel has been undergoing extensive refurbishment over the latter 2-3 Years. The Meeting was our first, too, for a long time with the building works almost complete. The main space is now fully opened up together with new furniture and a projection screen. The kitchen is ultra modern, along with new toilets. It makes for an even better Venue for our regular meetings, and for potentially holding future workshops. The location is a basement, which means access is via a staircase. We also welcomed a new member to the Group - Martyn Hill - which is good news for the future of the Group. Martyn was immediately 'hands on' with his skills in assisting us to restore to life a QL + Gold Card, housed in a PC case. A project that we are undertaking for a QL User who is now over 80 Years old. If anyone has any news for inclusion in the next issue of Quanta magazine, please send it to me by 5th March.

The deadline for Quanta magazine contributions is approaching (5th February) and because the magazine will contain AGM information it will have to be done pretty much to schedule (despite technically not having an editor...) If anyone has any material for the news pages, now would be a good time to send them to me at: news AT quanta DOT org DOT uk Thank you, Dilwyn Jones ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm

Re: [Ql-Users] Quanta news
Hi Dilwyn I recently sent an email message to John G. setting out my own basic philosophy regarding my personal approach to my use of QL and it occurs to me that, whilst there is a quite brilliant developmental QL concept, there is an aspect of QL usage that might well be exploited. What I envisage, is a ' vintage ' approach i.e. a sort of re-visit to some of the wonderful software that excited us so much when it first appeared and which, even then alerted us to the brilliance of the QL. We have the ' Channel 5 Top Gear ' enthusiasts but we also perhaps have, people such as myself who have an active nostalgia for things, such as 'cars of yesteryear' that; though they are in hindsight, recognised as having been more than adequate for the purposes for which they were designed, have fallen victim to the obsession for unremitting refinement and updating '. It may be that, in the realms of computing, I am representing myself as something of a ' troglodyte ' but, I love the QL for what it is, rather than as a springboard for parallel identification with systems that, in their sheer scope and brilliance are becoming, in my humble opinion, totally unrecognisable as practical, straightforward instruments for the extension of our ability to perform 'ordinary', perhaps even 'mundane' daily tasks for which, our mental capacity may be, at times - to say the least - less than adequate. I know that I am probably addressing a dwindling group of actively interested, people but, if, like myself, they are people who have lived with the QL throughout its formative years they may well, again like myself, have a hankering to re-visit and almost certainly to learn more about the tools we already have to hand which justify our conviction as to the soundness of our original choice.

Re: [Ql-Users] Quanta news
Hi Albert, I think you are quite right in what you say, that it is never wrong to revisit why we all took to the QL in the first place. I might try to persuade John that we should appeal to people to write about subjects like this. Thinking cap on, to see how best to approach this... -- Dilwyn Jones New address from 17th August 2009: 22 Erw Las Coetmor New Road Bethesda Gwynedd LL57 3NN Email: dil...@evans1511.fsnet.co.uk Mobile: 07749 643922 - Original Message - From: ALBERT NEWELL albe...@btinternet.com To: ql-us...@q-v-d.com Sent: Friday, August 07, 2009 9:57 AM Subject: Re: [Ql-Users] Quanta news Hi Dilwyn I recently sent an email message to John G. setting out my own basic philosophy regarding my personal approach to my use of QL and it occurs to me that, whilst there is a quite brilliant developmental QL concept, there is an aspect of QL usage that might well be exploited.
