I really hate to pick stuff like this out, but people in washington STATE are sensitive to this stuff, and talking like this might create some confusion, so.. ---- From: GRABOW_GEOFFREY@tandem.com [...] We at the Wash. location were discussing what the next step should be [...] Washington attandees: If I've left out anything, please write it down and ---- NOTE: Above, WASHINGTON == Washington DC, not Washington State. The Washington meeting in _Seattle_ went well -- we had 11 attendees for our first meeting ever. Hopefully, with better planning :) we'll have even more at our next meeting. Since it was our first meeting, much of it was spent introducing ourselves and planning logistics of our monthly meetings. We've decided to pursue MBONE connections in anticipation of the next broadcast Bay Area meeting. We're setting up a local group mailing list to service our local needs. In the event we can't get MBONE, our meetings will be held one week after the Bay Area meetings, in hopes that some kind soul will be able to provide us with rough minutes or the like. I know that this has been done before, although I know it is a thankless job... matt Matt Thomlinson Say no to the Wiretap Chip! University of Washington, Seattle, Washington.
