the different time (8:00PM-10:00PM) and day of week (Wednesday) of their 
meeting than ours is actually something discussed among our members several 
years ago to increase membership. promoting Open-Source software is an 
acceptable activity if the group name
differs by a dash from ours. the meeting place for them is a  web hosting 
company.

Howdy gang!

By now you've read my letter to the *other* group trying to use the NCOLUG 
name.  My belief is that we need to defend our right to that name and refuse to 
allow any other group access to our name.  This may be a hard fight if the 
folks on the other side do not wish to make a change.  Do any of you have 
opinions on how we handle this further?  Should we take action to make sure 
that name "belongs" to us?  

This new group does have a website - it's fairly crude, but it's something.  
Which brings me to the topic of our site.  It's been so long since we lost 
control of ncolug.org that I don't even remember where we are with it...  What 
does the group feel about this topic?  What should we do?  Personally, I *HATE* 
the fact that we lost control of our domain name!  I'm NOT too concerned about 
how it happened, but I am not comfortable with things being in limbo.  Again, I 
seek your input.

Thoughts, ideas, comments welcomed!
Chuck
