[nmglug] nmglug Albuquerque subset?

[Tom Ashcraft]

Thanks for the response, KRT

It happens that I used to spend a lot of time in Manzano Mesa Multi 
Generational Center for the inexpensive gym facilities. There used to be 
and I believe there still is a pretty nicely appointed computer lab in 
there, as well as other suitable and spacious meeting rooms.  I'm pretty 
sure reservations can be made there for nominal or non-existent fees.  
Likely the other community centers around town also offer appropriate 
facilities, though MMMGC is the only one I have any direct knowledge of 
as for me it was reasonable to bicycle to.

He and I have been tossing around the idea of (re)-forming an ABQ chapter of the NMGLUG.  Right now, we're looking around for good venue ideas (the best we've go so far is either Flying Star or one of the UNM libraries).  We're also thinking about maybe setting up a dedicated forum and/or a separate mailing list.

I'm sure there are others on this list who cannot make it to the SF meetings and who would be interested in another option.  Can I see a show of hands?  Does anyone have any ideas on the perfect venue?
