You know what? LUGNET is a terrific place in the woolly Internet on account of
the volume level doesn't get much louder than this.
Matt might be the _only_ one sticking up for this position because it's July 3
and everybody is not hooked up to LUGNET constantly. Maybe they're off watching
Battlestar Galactica episodes they missed the first time around, or whatever,
who knows.
I can only conjecture about what NELUG wants to be, because I've never met with
them. Frank talks about his "somewhat vested interest", but really, has Frank
joined the club or not?
I'm not chiding any one person, but: it's not polite to tell other people they
have obligations they haven't chosen, or demand that they justify themselves to
you.
Shiri asked pretty nicely and I sympathize with her position.
