[KLUG Members] Bringing Boogie's into the 2k2's

[members@kalamazoolinux.org]

>Boogie's is a 24-hr cafe with a large contingent of college

Jamie,
  Thanks for proposing this, I'll be taking it up with the owners of
the place shortly, and we'll weigh the merits of this vs. other
ways of extending service at Boogies.

  This project provides a public showcase for Linux, exposes a lot 
of people to the system, acts as a lab and opprtunity for interested 
members of KLUG, and benefits the group financially, as a whole. Ideas 
like this one are one of the things that make the project interesting
and can involve volunteers at all levels of skill. As you have pointed
out, this idea is quite promising, but has some security problems
that have to be dealt with.

  In the coming year, we can do a number of exciting things at Boogies,
and we can provide some good opportunities for those who step forward
and are willing to participate.

So thanks agian, Jamie, and to all of you who have helped KLUG be a real
success, at Boogies and other places, all during 2001!

							Regards,
							Happy New Year!
