I agree with Mark, though I'm not sure what advantage there would be to
having an enterprise level, I do like the idea of just one group, and
one list, WNYLUG or whatever it's called.

I personally like the name WNYLUG. I think it best describes the
geographical membership better than BPLUG or NFLUG. Upon speaking to
Brian, he also like the idea of having a more "Enterprise" level
usergroup, and is willing to lead that one also (it might simply be a
sub-group of WNYLUG). So, if it was up to me, I would merge NFLUG and
BPLUG into WNYLUG and adopt the WNYLUG charter and mission statement for
the time being. The next WNYLUG meeting is December 10th. At that time,
there will be voting for the leadership and acceptance of the mission
statement and charter (note, even though Brian is founding this and
taking on the initial leadership, actual voting for all officers will be
done). Anybody is welcome to come and not only vote, but put themselves
up for election.

 

Once this is done, the next item that needs to be cleaned up is the
mailing lists. I would suggest that the only mailing list that remains
be WNYLUG. People can either manually sign up for wnylug, and at date
certain, the nflug mailing list be shut down. I strongly discourage
having multiple Linux mailing lists be active at one time, It only
encourages division of our local community.
