I don't think that probation or age limits for certain events is necessarily
a workable solution, for reasons I'm not going to go into here (although I
certainly will at a NELUG meeting where it's discussed).

That is NELUGs right.

No, it's my right.  I see little need to solicit the opinions of non-NELUG
members on this.  We can choose to run our club however we like.

Fine, that is NELUGs right, which I support btw.


In other words, I don't care about ever convincing you of my side of the
argument, because frankly your opinion doesn't matter to me, and I'm not going
to go out of my way to sway you.

I'm not arrogant enough to suggest that my opinion should matter to you, but I
am interested in hearing yours. You've discounted two positive suggestions,
both of which sounded reasonable to me -- I have been involved in LUG
organisation in the past and probably will be in the future too, if there are
potential reasons why these ideas are unsuitable then I am interested in
hearing them.


However, by discussing it here, you might get to hear
opinions from other people who have run organisations and gain from their
experience too.

I've heard plenty of feedback so far (I've read every post in this thread) and
I have to say it doesn't look like much constructive is going to come of it.

I have the dubious honour of having read every post in this thread too, if you
wade through the barbed fluff, then there is useful content in here.
