[wlug_org] Individual liability from not being incorporated.

[Chris Hodgetts]

But we have no rules, and no "members" technically, and we have people
who are organising the lug although technically only those in the org
group actually get off their arses and do things (Installfest = prime
example) I don't recall anyone off the org list attended.... Please
correct me if I am wrong...

NOW -- to inc. the group is really only to incorp the ORG members...
because all the others only attend the meetings and are happy to attend
the meetings and talk Which is KOOOL and fine by me........

And what is the WellyLUG anyway...  I dunno ..............

The definition of the lug was "Like minded people sharing information
and ideas"

Eveyone knows I am not keen on formalising the group, so I will just
shut up and let eveyone fight this one out....
