Looking at 2009
Larry Cafiero/Cabrillo College GNU/Linux Users Group
Well, time and school and work got away from ME during the last term
-- as it may have for others -- but I'd like to ping you all to see
what you'd like the group to do in 2009.
Earlier there had been discussion about including non-campus groups
and over the last couple of months. I'm inclined to let them
participate. Thoughts on going forward on this so we can include them
(or not) in 2009?
Does anyone feel like attending an organizational meeting, maybe
during SCaLE (if anyone else is going) in February? Or it doesn't have
to be at SCaLE -- we can find a place that sort of central to everyone
and a place that can host us for possibly a day.
Another thought: Formalizing the group with a constitution, officers,
etc., in 2009. Thoughts?

Tell me about it, life sure gets busy :-)

I think it'd be really helpful to have anyone interested in helping
out to join. Before, I was pondering if having more 'exclusivity'
would keep things more effective, but I believe that having everyone
helping spread the word and work together would be great.

I've sent out emails to some staff at UCSD and USC, so I'm trying to
get some different people together to meet at SCaLE with stuff; I was
going to send an email to the list once I was done with finals. So I'm
totally in support of that :-)

with non-campus groups. e.g. some people belonging
to the sf-lug mailing list would be interested in
keeping up with campus-oriented lugs. seems sf and
nearby campus lugs would be interested in some of
the sf-lug goings-ons. there's an intersection of
sets. what's a good medium for updating the
intersection without loading those not in the join?
possibly an uber-lug web site?

this would be the list for people interested in Open Source usage on
campuses, though I may not be following your line of thought
precisely.
