* 2018-02-06
* Copyright date on web page footer changed.
* Appearance of the drop down list of Special Interest Groups (SIGs) has been completely cleaned up by removing defunct groups.
* Stan R has been experimenting with altering the SLUUG General Meeting [[http://www.sluug.org/|current design]] with new structure [[http://www.sluug.org/test/|TEST design]].
* This structure is same as the one Andrew Latham provided for the STL LUG and is now being used for all of our active LUGs.
* Have not yet been able to figure out color scheme coding.
* Setting the right sequence of sections for smart phone display will be important; but, is proving to be quite hard to manipulate.
* Most sections look fine on desktop FireFox browser display; but, some are missing on smart phone display possibly because of considerable errors in HTML.

* Stan found himself remiss in nominating attendee email addresses from attendance sheets.
* Procrastination is ugly. Until this weekend, none of email addresses for all of 2017 were nominated to ANNOUNCE and DISCUSS mailing lists.
* Suggest we emphasise self registration at each meeting by way of our [[http://www.sluug.org/mailman/listinfo/ | web resource sign up pages]].
* Print more cards with sign up procedure to hand out at meetings
