Nov 20th, 2017 - Schedule Planning and LUG Rules/Regulations
Our second meet-and-greet/organizational meeting was Monday, Nov 20th, at 6:00pm at:
Stoke's Inland Bar and Grill
1202 Lambton Mall Rd, Sarnia, ON N7S 5R6
Agenda:
- Network Updates and Introductions
- 2018 Monthly Topic Choices and Ordering (eg- Storage in March, Linux in April)
- LUG Rules and Regulations - What are other groups using? What should we do?
- Future Location Taskforce
The major goal of this meeting was to build long-term plans about how meetings will take place in the future. Specifically, 3/4ths of the agenda consists of “What are we going to talk about?”, “Who gets to decide?”, and “Where will we do it?”
Three major references will be:
- Rick Moen’s “Recipe for a Successful Linux User Group
- K. Clark and R. Moen’s “Linux User Group HOWTO”
- “Create your LUG” by lugslist.com
We are currently following the wise advice at lugslist.com:
“just go out with geek friends for some beer/coffee/whatever somewhere and launch a website to tell other people to join. If it is still active after some months, write us so that we could include your organization in the list.”
Feel free to join us!
