Yeha -- I think a Drive is pretty useless -- it would mean that the
person with the drive would need to turn up every meeting with it.

I mean, we have had a drive in the past, and I have never seen it turn
up since I have been with the LUG - so will it just end up being
something that is forgotten about, or under utilized.


Just my opinion, however I am unable to suggest any alternatives to the
drive proposal.
