<P>makes perfect sense to me. Sure, it may mean that someone may not be able to attend, but we should gain more than lose.</P>
<P>WPLUG does not seem to be the kind of organisation that needs to stick rigidly to a schedule. Meetings should be frequent to maintain the expectation that someone will always be able to find one coming soon and well publicised (as they are) but in my opinion there is no necessity for regularity.</P>

Keep in mind that the computer show is <BR>> also that weekend. <BR>> <BR>> The Installfest would be on the Saturday September 18th <BR>> The GUM would be on Saturday September 25. <BR>> <BR>> On Saturday October 2nd, there will be the second annual Ohio Linux Fest <BR>> in Columbus Ohio. I don't know about you, but I'm sure to be there. <BR>> <BR>> The GUM would be on October 9. <BR>> The second October meeting would be on the 16th. <BR>> <BR>> WPLUG has had considerable success with breaking away from the 1st & 2nd <BR>> saturday model this year since we have been able to notify everyone of <BR>> the changes in a timely manner. So far in 2004, we have had two meetings a <BR>> month without cancelations. <BR>> <BR>> Please let me know what you think of the September and October schedule <BR>> changes. <BR>> <BR>> thanks, <BR>> <BR>> Beth Lynn <BR>> _______________________________________________ <BR>> wplug-plan mailing list <BR>> wplug-plan@wplug.org <BR>> http://www.wplug.org/mailman/listinfo/wplug-plan </BLOCKQUOTE></body></html>
