The Guy from li.org was Jon"MADDOG" Hall.
We are non-profit. As also mentioned there is a page that shows this.
Also to note that we do not buy software! Also why would we even get into
buying Windows Software?
Also it would be a good Idea if you are interested in starting another SLUG
meeting
to get with Paul Foster our President, & Ed Centanni to make sure that you
have their seal of approval.
This will ensure that you are within our guidelines and to insure SLUGS good
name.
Also there is many things that need to be in place or setup to make sure
that the meetings go without a hitch.
If you need any more information please go to the www.suncoastlug.org Slugs
Official homepage to get other information you may need.
Thanks
Bill Preece
