I see that Tim Avery is/was here. He is one of the main F.A.U.G. guys (he seems to be in charge, anyway). He's lined up very good demos so far (a rough job if you've ever done it). Other than the demos, the main function has been distributing quick reference sheets on DOS and so on to help all through the docs crunch. There were 85 or 90 at the last meeting (Tues nite) and by a show of hands, about 80 to 90% had their own machines. This is up from 50 or so last month with half having machines. Although I was never in the Homebrew Computer Club, I gather that quite a few members were from that group, and there seems to be a lot of "ole times" nostalgia, hehe. Y'all come some time…. they are talking about setting up a bi-weekly developers' subgroup, and the membership certainly includes some folks with inside tracks to CBM in Los Gatos, if that is important/ useful to you. BTW, what are YOU developing for the Amiga? -Larry-

Thanks, Larry, for the info on F.A.U.G. I hope you'll post a reminder here to all just before the next meeting..I'd like to come. As for what I'm developing..my publisher's been pretty reasonable. He set me up with all of the development materials and told me to check out the Amiga scene and write whatever comes to mind that fits within the general theme of his company. I've a number of ideas in mind and am working on a couple of them now. — Bob Perez
