Re: About LUGs (?) on the other side of the world

Hi folks,
             New Orleans COMMON'98 was an eye-opener for me
as to the benefits of professional networking.
However, working from India, i find little or no avenues of such fruitful 
interaction.
I am not sure if any viable,active  Local Users Group on AS/400 exists in our 
region.
Maybe its time to think about starting out on one......
....i guess even on this list itself we have  a sizeable participation from 
this region.
I am sure even COMMON would like to leverage this opportunity to garner  
more memberships from this region.
Any suggestions on this is most welcome.....

Regards
-Adhip

Your best bet is to join a user group which is a member of COMMON.  Some
user group fees are less than COMMON, plus you get the benefit of regular
educational meetings, professional networking, etc.

I believe the NEWS/400 web site has a list of groups.  Check it to see if
one is in your area
