[ale] Re: [ale-admin] Offer to host meetings

[Hogg, Russell E]

I brought this up about a month ago and no one commented.


Who was it that moved the thing to San Fran anyway?
Bombed there I believe.   (without ALE to support it)


I'll pitch in,


Russ

As in Atlanta Linux Showcase?? The event that was hailed as the BEST
Linux conference anywhere in North America?!


It is long overdue for a resurrection. USENIX flopped on it's face. If I
recall correctly, the drawing area for ALS was pretty much the entire
southeastern US for attendees.


There are other LUGs nearby that might be willing to pitch in some
remote effort time. 


I am very willing to make some time to help this get revived.
