I can't comment on others interpretation but
There will be no new MonLUG members,
there will be no more MonLUG public event,
there will be no more MonLUG official meeting.
MonLUG is a thing of the past.
the remnants are bunches of friends
former members are free to:
meet as a bunch of friends
do public display as a bunch of friends
... as a bunch of friends
also they are free to
form a new group as members of that new group
... as members of that new group

What Jude said is accurate. MonLUG still exist, but is now closed to new
memberships and the name will not be used publicly or for any event.
That being said, some members of MonLUG will soon found a new group for AFOLs in
the Montreal area. This new group will be open to new memberships.
I will try to make an announcement concerning this new group soon. If you are
interested in this new group, please contact me by e-mail.
Thanks,
Pierre

Not that it's really any of my business, but I have an observation to
make as an innocent passer-by. Martin's post seemed to say that the
group wasn't going to exist anymore. That's fair, stuff happens. But
Jude's post sounds more like "we don't want any new members, so to anyone
else in Montreal, you'll have to start your own group, and oh by the way
you can't be called MonLUG because we still exist." I don't know if that
was the intent or not, but either way, you may want to clarify this
for the record for any lurkers, now or future, that may see these
announcements. You wouldn't want a simple misinterpretation to alienate
all other Montreal AFOLs.

I'm not even a member, and this saddens me!
Maybe it's because we're trying to step up our membership here in NYC...
Good luck in your future endeavours!
