[GLLUG] GLLUG Business

[frank.dolinar at comcast.net]

Charles (and everyone else, of course), 
I think a place with a better WiFi signal would probably be a good idea. Where? Gone Wired is okay for just hanging out and having conversation. But if there is a presentation, by anyone, the incoming and outgoing interference has been a problem. 
The idea of a summer picnic is a good one that several organizations I've been involved in have done in the past with good results. Though I don't think such social gatherings should necessarily be limited to just the summer. 
I think expanding GLLUG's scope is a very good idea, even if it's done to explore only the growing library of Open Source software. 

That's my two cents.

I wasn't able to make it to this week's meeting but I believe the matter 
is still open. If there are no better options, we might give Gone Wired a 
try again per Stan's suggestion. The library is a nice quiet place, but 
maybe that's a problem. Even though I was one of the people who wanted to 
move the group to a more presentation-friendly place, I'll admit that we 
lost a lot of regulars and semi-regulars when we left the coffee shop. 

At some point, I'd also like to bring up the possibility of broadening 
GLLUG's scope (i.e., not just open source software), but that's a 
discussion for another day.

I'm sure that wouldn't be a problem. Anyone willing to go in with me on 
Brazilian Beef? :)
