Just a minute there! I thought you were going to run for this committee
Yar so you could do this stuff yourself... Instead you'll take the job
of armchair critic.

Actually, I tend to agree with the thrust of the posting. AUUG can only
grow (assuming growth is a good thing) by adopting a "board of directors"
role for the committee. The question is then "are there sufficient
resources to do this now?" I think it's getting close to that point, if
not already there.

Then the question is "who's going to make it happen?" while at the same
time making sure that the membership is happy about the activities of
the organisation and so on. AUUG now does have a "general manager", who
has an expanding role to cover some or all of these issues. This is not
to suggest that all the problems are solved just yet.

PS I take it, Ray, that you would have no objection to being co-opted to
   the committee if a vacancy should arise.
