Here are my [slides | http://nimhq.net/gnu_graphics_roundup.odp] and image:

I created this in [Hugin|http://hugin.sourceforge.net/] from two pictures I took of the audience at my graphics presentation.

Since I've joined the WlugCommittee, I thought I'd better write something here.  I've recently immigrated to New Zealand from Chicago, USA. I'm employed by RimuHosting, a situation I have wlug to thank for, since it was on the mailing list where I saw Peter's job posting.

Every now and then you will see the topic on SlashDot about what role LUGs are continuing to play and if they are still valid.  I see WLUG as one group that should be highlighted when this question pops up. IMO they are creating a great model of what a LUG can do, and how they should organize and operate. I'm glad to have the opportunity to contribute to this group.

Now I get to post links to the great clubs and organizations I've worked with in the past. I've been involved with a lot of great LUGs over the years, but it's the time I've spent helping to organize sister FreeGeek projects in Chicago and South Bend, Indiana that I am most proud of (appropriate that FreeGeek may be the first wiki word I create on this site):
