I would agree. I things are still in the planning stage so I want to wait it
out but I don't think this new organization should or could negotiate flat deal
that would satisfy all regional organizaions.
I personally only want to do this for information sharing that can be used by
us to work out our own deals. If NELUG membership requires much more I would
say we're out.

Agreed, many groups have many different philosophys about how to run their
group and anything that would endanger those philosophys I think would be
shunned. For example I would never say we should change our age limitation
because the larger group said we should, although I would be happy to explain
why we have the rule (to the smaller group so they can decide if it would work
for them).
I wouldn't worry to much yet. I won't be tieing us to anything. Actually if
you want to be the other representative on NELUG to keep me honest I would
appretiate it.
