Reasons behind this have included small turn out, lack of speakers, and personal time. I<br> have found myself that the group has been absolutely great to run, and have met a bunch of cool<br> people and heard many great talks.<br> <br> I have run it for a few years now (I think 5?), which I picked up after a long lapse from its beginnings<br> way back when I was ---- this tall. Hopefully sometime in the future someone can pick it up and try<br> rekindle it again.<br> <br> In the meantime, there is a new user group called "Wellington Open Source Show And Tell"<br> (<a href="https://wossat.nz">https://wossat.nz</a>) which has meetings which alternate between the 3rd Tuesday and the 3rd Thursday of<br> each month. I would imagine that the current members of WellyLUG would fit right in with this user<br> group as it follows a similar set of topics to which we have had in WellyLUG. I'm bound to be there<br> myself from time to time as well so I will see you there.<br> <br> If you have any questions about the above, feel free to contact me directly, or reply to the list. The<br> mailing list I plan to keep around for general discussions about the linux community.ts.<br> <br> Cheers,<br> <br> Hugh<br> <br> -- <br> Wellington Linux Users Group Mailing List: wellylug@lists.wellylug.org.nz<br> To Leave: <a href="http://lists.wellylug.org.nz/mailman/listinfo/wellylug">http://lists.wellylug.org.nz/mailman/listinfo/wellylug</a><br></blockquote><br></pre></blockquote></div><br>
