[Nolug] NOLUG Meeting!

Hi everyone,

    Although I’m a relatively new member that has never been to a NOLUG meeting, I am excited about the possibility of having more than two people in the same building that is as interested as I am about Linux. I have found a few people that are interested in having a gathering to discuss and share knowledge. However, the threads that have come across this newsgroup never end up anywhere, nor has anyone made any concrete decisions for meetings.
    I would like to offer a meeting place for the NOLUG. It probably won’t be permanent, but it’s a place to start that has air conditioning and internet access. The building is located in the CBD and will have no-cost parking after business hours or on the weekend (provided there isn’t a special event). I will provide tables, chairs, electricity (surge protectors) and internet access.
    I would really like to see regular gatherings as there are many people out in the world that would like to come to such a meeting to learn and have exposure to Linux. I am an incredibly busy person, but I would like to have the first meeting within three weeks. I am going to begin getting the facility set up right now.
    Please reply back to me and let me know if you are interested. All levels of experience are invited - even if someone hasn't even installed this OS yet! Bring them! It will be better that I have a good head count (RSVP) and an idea how many people will bring computers/laptops.

    Thanks. And I look forward to meeting anyone interested in being at this gathering!

     Mark
