I really don't know why you people call yourselves the Canberra Linux
Users Group.

It should be the ANU Linux users group. Most canberrans I've spoken to
are put off going to the meetings
At ANU for 2 primary reasons, the location and lack of access to the
venue, and more importantly, the antics of it's regular members.

Maybe this should be considered and a new approach taken to get a more
rounded cross section of the community involved.

Regards,
  John Telek

Andrew Pollock has kindly volunteered to take this over. Please be 
gentle to him during the transition...
