Because I'm passionate about Cisco networking equipment, and I think I can get a good sized crowd coming along. If I made it a NUG (Network Users Group), then it could swell

be something huge. ... Im definately interested in upskilling in this area so Id be in - but id be somewhat cautious if the people coordinating an event were so

I suppose I should mention publically that I am interested.

Once it is running, other people would probably step forward to assist. Ideally SIGs (special interest groups) would form off the main club. I have a lot of experience with Cisco equipment, so I can provide the skills required to make it work. I can't make it happen if people bring along questions about 5 different vendors equipment. -----Original Message----- pro-one-manufacturer that they wound up being anti-the-others, you end up with a rather narrow field of expertise... (Shadows of MCSE? Or is that inappropriate? :P) Im all for it, but id prefer a vendor-neutral concept. Of course theres no reason why Cisco cant feature in a big way - but lets not close the idea off to other vendors. Otherwise anyone who wishes to retain a broader view, needs to find multiple training/user group sources instead of just one. - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
