TriJUG board nominations this month, a new volunteer, and invitation for future speakers

Folks,
   It's that time of year again and nominations are open for the 2011
TriJUG board of directors. Self-nomination is welcome and the nomination
period will continue until shortly before the election at the beginning
of the November 15 meeting.
  Please consider joining the board to help out. It typically translates
to just a few hours of effort a month and "new blood" is always very
helpful with respect to avoiding ruts. Your involvement can easily
translate directly into improvements (or at least change). Also, the
board is open to a reorg every year. That is, the "who does what"
details come after the new board is formed and before the start of the
new calendar year.
  Jeanne Heisel has graciously taken over the book raffle and I'm sure
she is open to suggestions for high quality, cutting edge books as well
as "classics" to add to the raffle pool. Jeanne can be reached at her
first name at acm.org.
  Also, if you or someone you know is interested in providing a
technical presentation at a future TriJUG meeting please send email to
[email protected] or contact Lee Haslup or myself at a meeting.

Thanks,
Pete Soper
(TriJUG secretary)
