A note of thanks

[Ted Roche]

I didn't want the moment to go by without noting that Guy Pardoe has  
decided to step aside as the coordinator of the MonadLUG group and  
take a moment to express my thanks. IIRC, several years ago, Guy had  
heard there had been meetings in Peterborough, although nothing  
consistent for a while, and stepped up to the job of herding the cats  
and making the meetings happen. Guy has been point man for the group  
for a couple of years now, and I've appreciated the effort. It's not  
a job that often gets a lot of thanks and with good coordinators like  
Guy, you hardly notice the effort, as things go pretty smoothly.  
Thanks for the all the hard work, Guy!

It's been a busy year for transitions, and thanks also ought to go  
out to Ken D'Ambrosio, who's stepped down as MerriLUG coordinator and  
to David Berube, who ran the Fearless Leader position and CentraLUG  
coordinator positions simultaneously. This group depends on  
volunteers and every one is appreciated. Thanks to Heather and Jim  
Kuzdrall for picking up the Nashua group and running a terrific  
series of meetings this fall.

And thanks, too, to those that have provided continuity, in  
continuing to volunteer and participate and keep the group going: Rob  
Anderson, maddog, Bill McGonigle, Bill Sconce, Ben Scott, Lloyd Kvam,  
to the speakers who volunteer their time and expertise, and to the  
attendees who take valuable time out of their lives to join us and  
talk Linux.

Enjoy the holiday!
