I have two suggestions for the organizers of the "Canadian" SUG: 1. Since the meetings are in Toronto, you may consider restricting the distribution of the meeting notices to Toronto only. If you don't know how to do that, I am sure someone at University of Toronto could help you. 2. To make it worthwhile for the rest of the Canadian Sun users, I suggest that you post summaries of what happened at the meetings, to serve as an information exchange for other Sun users. Personally, I would like to see a truly Canadian SUG, not just a Toronto SUG touting to be Canada wide. Anyone else feel the same? -- Godfrey Lee P.O.

Anyone else feel the same? Here! Here! Either re-name it Toronto SUG, or somehow open it up to all Canadians (summaries to the net would go a long way here). BTW, I think can.sun-stroke as a newsgroup is a wonderful idea. I look forward to informative exchanges on various aspects of Suns. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Andrew Patrick, Ph.D. Communications Research Center, Ottawa, CANADA (613) 990-4675 SMARTMAIL: patrick@crcmar.uucp UUCP: ...utzoo!dciem!nrcaer!crcmar!patrick BITNET: patrick%crcmar@UTORGPU ARPA: dgbt@ncs-dre.arpa "Home of the world's first microwave airplane!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Please don't restrict the postings about the Canadian SUG meetings to Toronto. While Ottawa is a bit far to travel, London isn't, neither is Kitchener, Hamilton. I for one am heading to Toronto for the meeting and know of 2 others from here, If the messages aren't posted then we have to rely on someone passing the message along.
