[Lilug Planning] LILUG Government Meeting June 23rd

Wed Jun 17 15:15:45 PDT 2009

Hey

 	OK just talked to Mark.  He said either Friday or Monday is OK.  J 
and Matt, we are waiting on you.  Thanks.

 	I'll probably need to moderate with 8 people, but that should be 
OK.

 	I'm sorry to put my foot down about 8pm, but it's pretty 
ridiculous for me to race to Dix Hills.  I'm the president I should be 
there.

 	I'm CCing Jim Brown on this.  He could probably help.  Please keep 
in mind that we actually have two targets NYS non profit and Fed non 
profit, they shouldn't negate each other.

 	John I appreciate you drumming this up.  I'm sorry if I seem a 
little quick, but I would have missed it as it stood.  Not only is it 
important to the process that we are there but, I personally want to be 
part of it.

Matt
