We've had a more private discussion going. In summary, we may have been frozen out of our Meetup group already. Someone will update when we have more info. Paul On Tue, Aug 24, 2021 at 7:31 PM Michael L wrote: > If a non-officer can at least handle it in the interim, I nominate Marvin >

JonnyX replied in the thread. Not sure, but he appears to own the meetings. I'll message Vincent and John OMalley, but they have both had things preventing them from being active lately. Not sure who else could be a current MeetUp admin. ---Paul. On Tue, Aug 24, 2021 at 4:20 PM 'Michael

I have logged into Meetup looking to nominate you as an organizer for NLUG. I see three names of folks supposedly involved that I have never seen before. I do not see where I may point to someone else - like you. Guidance please. Howard On 8/24/21 9:22 AM, 'Michael Chaney' via NLUG wrote:

(If there's a fee, I can contribute or pay the whole thing) If the meetup is essential to the online meetings, then I'd say lets keep it going. As much money, time and headaches Linux has saved me ($50k so far in 3 years thanks to Howard, NLUG and Linus), I of course think everyone should use

I agree. The meetup group will be useful again once we're back to doing in-person meetings at Vaco (and perhaps even a long-overdue installfest or two). ~~Dru -Original Message- From: Sent: Aug 24, 2021 9:40 AM To: nlug-talk@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: [nlug] Meetup Group It would

All, I've received notices that the Nashville Linux Users Group Meetup page shall be deleted tomorrow unless someone - they suggest me - takes on the role of leader and no doubt pays them money. Allow me to be blunt. I really do not care [ about | for ] Meetup. Does anyone else have
