There has been plenty of discussion on that subject already and I'm sure 
there will be more at the AGM.

If you want a statement from me, I'll say for now that I don't think 
winding up AUUG is the correct course of action - there is plenty more 
useful stuff we can do (and we can get better at doing it, for sure).  If 
people want to be a part of that, great.  If not, no-one is forcing anyone 
to be a member.

Meanwhile, it is clear that we are behind in where we "should" be with the 
conference at this time, according to the traditional schedule.  However, 
the board feels it is generally more useful to proceed with the conference 
than to postpone or cancel at this point, and we see no reason why we 
cannot still run a successful conference.

As such, we are focussing our attention on preparations for the 
conference, which would seem to be the most important matter at hand.

I welcome continued discussion, but I won't have a lot to say myself until 
the conference is sorted.

P.S.  We still have about 2 slots open in the conference programme.  I'd 
love to hear from anyone who might like to fill them.
