I believe it would be a champion success! Would everybody be able to attend? No, but I bet there'd be a lot more than expected at the moment. Reasonable planning time and a good location for access of cost and accommodation and I bet it would fly. If nothing else count me in right now! ted -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Brian Reid Sent: Monday, March 03, 2008 7:36 PM To: LUG@leica-users.org Subject: [Leica] LUG convention? Off in some thread entirely unrelated to the topic, several people started discussing the idea of a LUG convention. The LUG will be 16 years old in a month (it was founded on 7 April 1992) and I think the largest gathering of us that has ever happened is maybe a dozen of us claiming a section of the bar at an LHSA meeting. There are as of this moment 1038 members of the LUG. I recognize a dozen names from the 1992 roster of people who were subscribed then and are still here. Another 3000 have passed through, quitting as their patience waned or their interests changed. I think that if there was a LUG convention and 40 people attended, it would be a roaring success. If 80 people attended we'd definitely have to make it a regular event (perhaps every second year). Thoughts?
