[GLLUG] linux-user Digest, Vol 149, Issue 4

Mon Sep 21 09:22:00 EDT 2015

I haven’t attended a meeting before, but would be interested in attending one in the future.  Location doesn’t matter to me as much as time, later in the evenings during the week or pretty much whenever on the weekends.

My .02 , I think scheduling two meetings a month, one during the week and one on the weekend makes sense.

For me it's still a question of where the meeting is.  Old Town means nothing to me.  But I know where the book store is and it's a very pleasant setting.

I'm happy that there are still people who want to attend GLLUG meetings.
  Several people said the scheduling was inconvenient for them.  I had
chosen Tuesdays because it seemed like the day that would get the
greatest attendance, but it leaves some people unable to attend.  I
would like to propose that we have a variable schedule, so that everyone
is able to attend one meeting or another.  If two meetings a month are
still a goal, we could have one on a weekend and one on a weekday.  We
could even vary it each month, maybe alternating between a couple of
days, sliding a day each month, or set a fixed date of the month and let
it fall on whatever day of the week that it does.  We could even have
three or four meetings a month, each on a different weekday, and whoever
can come, comes.  We could meet in different locations, too, or choose
just one for every meeting.  I'm just throwing out some ideas here; what
do you who would like to attend think?  What suggestions do you have?

I know it might seem complicated, but between the GLLUG website, the
GLLUG calendar, and this mailing list, it should be possible to keep
interested parties informed as to when meetings are.  I also realize
this might fracture GLLUG into different groups, depending on who can
make meetings on which days at which locations.  It seems, though, that
having meetings on one day of the week (Tuesday) each month wasn't
working for most people.  And a few people have told me that weekend
meetings would be much easier for them to attend that meetings on
weeknights.

Anyway, please let me/us know what you think of this, and any better
suggestions you may have.

What is this other group?  Maybe some of us would like to join it.  Or
would that ruin it for you?     :)

Marriage is the primary cause of divorce
and logically divorce is the primary cause marriage.

I am  disgusted and repelled by the democratic candidates. I will prob vote for Bernie Sanders or a libertarian.  they are both against both printing trillions of dollars and then borrowing money to finance more war adventures.  The unneeded domestic spending is also out of control..  Join me in rejecting this insanity.
