  New poll: How are you involved?
 
Hey all, In the discussion on the future face of LUGNET, Suz said she wanted to see this as an "organized association of LUGs".

Hi Robert: With due respect, did you happen to read what Suz herself wrote (URL) here?> Here's the central point, IMO: No piece of a blog entry should be pulled out, given a title and posted at LUGNET with an implication that an announcement (...)
