The first meeting I attended was, IIRC, in 1994, and it had been going
for some time before that. The meeting was in a small upstairs room at
UTS and there were maybe ten of us there. Those I remember are Jamie
Honan, Grahame Kelly, Del, Charlie Brady, Ken Yap, Leonard Chan. Del
talked about setting up mail and news over UUCP.
I think I'd been on the mailing list for a month or two before then. I
only went to two or three meetings over the next year or so, and it was
many years before I got to another. By then, SLUG had outgrown the
original room and there were about 150 people there. That was around
the time that SLUG became an incorporated association.
Cheers,
John

No. Mornings are horrible, and you are weird.
