The new
committee for 2006 is now well and truly in place and I find
myself filling the previously vacant position of president.
We have a
diverse committee made up of a mixture of "old hands" but with quite a
bit of new blood. I hope we can continue the good work done by
John Saxon and his committee last year.
The next major event for the group is the Christmas Party on 3rd
December (see elsewhere for details). Come along and meet fellow
members and see the Centre at Holder now that we have settled in.
The completion of modifications to our new home will be a major project
for 2006. Another major initiative will be our participation in
the Microsoft Unlimited Potential scheme where we are one of 194 UP
Centres Australia wide.
Good news is that we have appointed Joseph Tandl as Training Manager and
should be able to again offer training courses early in 2006. If
you are interested in participating, either as a trainer or student,
get in touch and we can take your needs into account when developing
our program.
We will soon be implementing a poll and feedback system on the web site
so keep an eye on the home page at http://www.pcug.org.au
The
committee appreciates getting feedback on what members want from the
group.
Finally, compliments of the season to all, and happy computing in 2006.
Allan Mikkelsen
