Re: Southeast libraries: suggestion

[Todd Puccio <puccio@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Southeast III users:

There is already a Florida State Users group.

info at

http://www.nova.edu/library/floridaiug/


If each each state had its own IUG then we would not need a SE Regional one, 
too.
We could combine all of the states for a Regional IUG, instead.  

It would be difficult to maintain both.

Shorter/Cheaper travel is the advantage to keeping a state IUG.

Some southern states are close together.  But, driving from the South Florida 
Area requires at least 8 hours to reach the next state.
