[wellylug] The future of the Wellington Linux Users Group

[Jamie Dobbs]

Hi Geoff

Yes I can make sure that there is a PC there for the meeting, thank you for
taking up my 'plea' for a presenter - I really appreciate it.

I can see that my post has had the effect of getting a few more people to
talk :-) and I also take on board the fact that me may see an increase in
numbers for our summer meetings when it is warmer!!

Cheers

Jamie
