Matt,
 
I would really appreciate it when they send meeting notices that the topic of the meeting would be posted.  I am not able to make very many meetings but if the topic was something of interest I would make the added effort to attend more often.

Hi Guys, 
We are meeting to discuss what happened and how we can keep it from happening again.   
If there is another group in the area, feel free to share the information on this list.  We might find a partnership or something worthwhile. 
There was one down in Kalamazoo a while back, but that didn't suit most of our users. 

Since Steve stepped down I guess a couple balls were dropped.   
Ken Radlick has stepped up to the plate to become the next JUG-president and take on the responsibility of keeping things on track and providing value.  Ken has long been an avid supporter and leader of out group, as many of you can attest to.  Ken's eagerness to work hard for the JUG has been apparent over the past year.  I have great confidence that Ken will do a great job leading us into the "next incantation" of the GR-JUG.   

Many will note that in the past, the JUG has also been an unofficial venue for Open-Source discussions as well.  While Java and OSS have a great deal in common (being a break in the mold, etc...) additional value is brought to the discussion because the group is so evenly split between focus and preference.  We have many Windows-lovers and Linux-lovers (and a few BSD guys too!).    But keep it coming.  Truth is not made up of opinion, but can be viewed through experience and valid discussion. 

Hope to see you all again soon.  Even though I don't come to many meetings anymore I'm still in the background hopefully helping the front-runner leaders like Ken, Carlus, and until recently, Steve.  These guys have done a great job in the past, given all that it takes to make a users-group last the several years the GR-JUG has... particularly in the bastion of Microsoft-central.

Unfortunately I don't have the details, but I heard recently that 
another Java user group, local to west Michigan, had formed. Anybody 
know about it, or the relationship if any to GR JUG?
