The COSUG committee has not yet made any decisions about what to do
about non AUUG members who want to use facilities provided (and funded)
by COSUG.  When COSUG does officially become a chapter of AUUG *and*
AUUG starts to provide funding for chapters, then COSUG will need to
address this issue.  Currently COSUG has many "members" who are not
AUUG members, but they haven't "joined" COSUG either, so I would view
them as currently having very little rights to anything.  

This issue is still very much on the agenda and will need to be looked
at carefully when AUUG publishes its policy (?) on chapters.
