Hi All, I think the NCMUG opportunity is great, and the possible tie-ins Babette suggests too are very good. Since I am not familiar with NCMUG it?s various generations I wonder: 1. Is there a separate membership cost to NCMUG? (Babette stipulated a GGCS membership fee required in a collaborative arrangement ). 2. Could GGCS and NCMUG foster an encompassing sister relationship between each other? For example GGCS has a sister relationship with the Genealogical Society. 3. Since GGCS collects email addresses at its SIGS for GGCS announcements only can we explore the efficacy and the how-to of hooking SIG attendees directly into NCMUG? Collaboration of NCMUG with GGCS should enrich both. Generally GGCS SIG leaders are professional consultants, technology professionals and/or experienced teachers, so that GGCS brings skills to the table complementing NBMUG..

As Heinz pointed out in his earlier email, NCMUG is disbanding. I think he clearly outlined the situation in his response. Members (or now former members) of NCMUG have always been welcome to attend GGCS events and may continue to do so. If they wish they can certainly going GGCS if they haven't already. Jim, Would you be able to let members of NCMUG, know that they are welcome to participate in GGCS events? I think most probably know us!

Russ, et al: If I am remembering rightly the Genealogical Society (GS) has had a place in the GGCS Announcements. On the basis of that I inferred, obviously incorrectly, that the GS even though not a GGCS SIG, had a sister-type relationship with us. By sister-type relationship I believed there was a mutually beneficial arrangement (agreement?) whereby GS benefited through our Announcements, and GGCS benefited by offering a enriched menu of regular presentations. Naturally as you are a longtime Steering Committee Board Member I defer to you on what is the formal or informal relationship between GS and GGCS. In a strict sense I guess my example was not perfect. Thanks very much for the heads up, and a chance for me to explain. I however hope my intent is not missed.

Message-ID: <20180514.141257.22418.2@webmail07.dca.untd.com> Hey folks...I think we have two things going here. 1. Russ asked about the sister relationship with Marin Genealogical Society, in reference, I think, to something Heinz said. It's always been my impression that we had a sort of a collegiall relationship with them, in the sense that we post notices of their meetings in our announcements, and I assumed they post ours. Since Heinz belongs to both groups, he sort of keeps track of this. Also, many of our members belong to their groups, and our August presenter, Gene Pennington, is their former Prez. 2. The other issue is NBMUG, which I think Jim Oser told us is disbanding, and I made the suggestion that we should ask to be added to their on line discussion group so we could announce our GM's there and invite them to attend. ---------- Original Message ---------- From: Marcelino Nogueiro To: Kathy Hunsicker , Russ , Jim Oser Cc: "sigleaders at ggcs.org" , GGCS-Steering , List for the Presentations Committee Subject: Re: [Sigleaders] [Ggcs-steering] [Ggcs-presentations] Fwd: [ncmug] Don't miss out, OPT IN NOW to th e new NCMUG-Alumni email discussion list. Date: Mon, 14 May 2018 01:47:14 +0000 Kathy,Thanks for your input on this.As Heinz pointed out in his earlier email, NCMUG is disbanding. I think he clearly outlined the situation in his response.Members (or now former members) of NCMUG have always been welcome to attend GGCS events and may continue to do so. If they wish they can certainly going GGCS if they haven't already. Jim,Would you be able to let members of NCMUG, know that they are welcome to participate in GGCS events? I think most probably know us!

Russ, et al: If I am remembering rightly the Genealogical Society (GS) has had a place in the GGCS Announcements. On the basis of that I inferred, obviously incorrectly, that the GS even though not a GGCS SIG, had a sister-type relationship with us. By sister-type relationship I believed there was a mutually beneficial arrangement (agreement?) whereby GS benefited through our Announcements, and GGCS benefited by offering a enriched menu of regular presentations. Naturally as you are a longtime Steering Committee Board Member I defer to you on what is the formal or informal relationship between GS and GGCS. In a strict sense I guess my example was not perfect. Thanks very much for the heads up, and a chance for me to explain. I however hope my intent is not missed.

Hi All, I think the NCMUG opportunity is great, and the possible tie-ins Babette suggests too are very good. Since I am not familiar with NCMUG it’s various generations I wonder: 1. Is there a separate membership cost to NCMUG? (Babette stipulated a GGCS membership fee required in a collaborative arrangement ). 2. Could GGCS and NCMUG foster an encompassing sister relationship between each other? For example GGCS has a sister relationship with the Genealogical Society. 3. Since GGCS collects email addresses at its SIGS for GGCS announcements only can we explore the efficacy and the how-to of hooking SIG attendees directly into NCMUG? Collaboration of NCMUG with GGCS should enrich both. Generally GGCS SIG leaders are professional consultants, technology professionals and/or experienced teachers, so that GGCS brings skills to the table complementing NBMUG.. Thanks Jim, Emily and Babette for stimulating, testing and facilitating the potential for a great supplemental experience for GGCS leaders and its members.

It also would be a way for SIGs with low attendance to keep their topics going and help people if they decide to shut down. If interest and traffic on such a forum increases, we could consider occasional meetings or classes around the topic. If my quarterly Quicken SIG doesn't result in better attendance, I plan to give up the ghost after our meeting in December and keep my Email List going for those who have questions and need help. Possible forums might be: General, Beginners, etc. Forums could be open to members only, to keep them as a membership benefit. bb ---------- Original Message ---------- From: JIm Oser To: List for the Presentations Committee Subject: [Ggcs-presentations] Fwd: [ncmug] Don't miss out, OPT IN NOW to the new NCMUG-Alumni email discussion list.

Hi All, I think the NCMUG opportunity is great, and the possible tie-ins Babette suggests too are very good. Since I am not familiar with NCMUG it?s various generations I wonder: 1. Is there a separate membership cost to NCMUG? (Babette stipulated a GGCS membership fee required in a collaborative arrangement ). 2. Could GGCS and NCMUG foster an encompassing sister relationship between each other? For example GGCS has a sister relationship with the Genealogical Society. 3. Since GGCS collects email addresses at its SIGS for GGCS announcements only can we explore the efficacy and the how-to of hooking SIG attendees directly into NCMUG?

Message-ID: <20180514.141257.22418.2@webmail07.dca.untd.com> Hey folks...I think we have two things going here. 1. Russ asked about the sister relationship with Marin Genealogical Society, in reference, I think, to something Heinz said. It's always been my impression that we had a sort of a collegiall relationship with them, in the sense that we post notices of their meetings in our announcements, and I assumed they post ours. Since Heinz belongs to both groups, he sort of keeps track of this. Also, many of our members belong to their groups, and our August presenter, Gene Pennington, is their former Prez. 2. The other issue is NBMUG, which I think Jim Oser told us is disbanding, and I made the suggestion that we should ask to be added to their on line discussion group so we could announce our GM's there and invite them to attend. ---------- Original Message ---------- From: Marcelino Nogueiro To: Kathy Hunsicker , Russ , Jim Oser Cc: "sigleaders at ggcs.org" , GGCS-Steering , List for the Presentations Committee Subject: Re: [Sigleaders] [Ggcs-steering] [Ggcs-presentations] Fwd: [ncmug] Don't miss out, OPT IN NOW to th e new NCMUG-Alumni email discussion list.

Hi All, I think the NCMUG opportunity is great, and the possible tie-ins Babette suggests too are very good. Since I am not familiar with NCMUG it?s various generations I wonder: 1. Is there a separate membership cost to NCMUG? (Babette stipulated a GGCS membership fee required in a collaborative arrangement ). 2. Could GGCS and NCMUG foster an encompassing sister relationship between each other? For example GGCS has a sister relationship with the Genealogical Society. 3. Since GGCS collects email addresses at its SIGS for GGCS announcements only can we explore the efficacy and the how-to of hooking SIG attendees directly into NCMUG? Collaboration of NCMUG with GGCS should enrich both. Generally GGCS SIG leaders are professional consultants, technology professionals and/or experienced teachers, so that GGCS brings skills to the table complementing NBMUG.. Thanks Jim, Emily and Babette for stimulating, testing and facilitating the potential for a great supplemental experience for GGCS leaders and its members.

As Heinz pointed out in his earlier email, NCMUG is disbanding. I think he clearly outlined the situation in his response. Members (or now former members) of NCMUG have always been welcome to attend GGCS events and may continue to do so. If they wish they can certainly going GGCS if they haven't already. Jim, Would you be able to let members of NCMUG, know that they are welcome to participate in GGCS events? I think most probably know us!

Russ, et al: If I am remembering rightly the Genealogical Society (GS) has had a place in the GGCS Announcements. On the basis of that I inferred, obviously incorrectly, that the GS even though not a GGCS SIG, had a sister-type relationship with us. By sister-type relationship I believed there was a mutually beneficial arrangement (agreement?) whereby GS benefited through our Announcements, and GGCS benefited by offering a enriched menu of regular presentations. Naturally as you are a longtime Steering Committee Board Member I defer to you on what is the formal or informal relationship between GS and GGCS. In a strict sense I guess my example was not perfect. Thanks very much for the heads up, and a chance for me to explain. I however hope my intent is not missed.

Message-ID: <20180514.141257.22418.2@webmail07.dca.untd.com> Hey folks...I think we have two things going here. 1. Russ asked about the sister relationship with Marin Genealogical Society, in reference, I think, to something Heinz said. It's always been my impression that we had a sort of a collegiall relationship with them, in the sense that we post notices of their meetings in our announcements, and I assumed they post ours. Since Heinz belongs to both groups, he sort of keeps track of this. Also, many of our members belong to their groups, and our August presenter, Gene Pennington, is their former Prez. 2. The other issue is NBMUG, which I think Jim Oser told us is disbanding, and I made the suggestion that we should ask to be added to their on line discussion group so we could announce our GM's there and invite them to attend. ---------- Original Message ---------- From: Marcelino Nogueiro To: Kathy Hunsicker , Russ , Jim Oser Cc: "sigleaders at ggcs.org" , GGCS-Steering , List for the Presentations Committee Subject: Re: [Sigleaders] [Ggcs-steering] [Ggcs-presentations] Fwd: [ncmug] Don't miss out, OPT IN NOW to th e new NCMUG-Alumni email discussion list. Date: Mon, 14 May 2018 01:47:14 +0000 Kathy,Thanks for your input on this.As Heinz pointed out in his earlier email, NCMUG is disbanding. I think he clearly outlined the situation in his response.Members (or now former members) of NCMUG have always been welcome to attend GGCS events and may continue to do so. If they wish they can certainly going GGCS if they haven't already. Jim,Would you be able to let members of NCMUG, know that they are welcome to participate in GGCS events? I think most probably know us!

Russ, et al: If I am remembering rightly the Genealogical Society (GS) has had a place in the GGCS Announcements. On the basis of that I inferred, obviously incorrectly, that the GS even though not a GGCS SIG, had a sister-type relationship with us. By sister-type relationship I believed there was a mutually beneficial arrangement (agreement?) whereby GS benefited through our Announcements, and GGCS benefited by offering a enriched menu of regular presentations. Naturally as you are a longtime Steering Committee Board Member I defer to you on what is the formal or informal relationship between GS and GGCS. In a strict sense I guess my example was not perfect. Thanks very much for the heads up, and a chance for me to explain. I however hope my intent is not missed.

As Heinz pointed out in his earlier email, NCMUG is disbanding. I think he clearly outlined the situation in his response. Members (or now former members) of NCMUG have always been welcome to attend GGCS events and may continue to do so. If they wish they can certainly going GGCS if they haven't already. Jim, Would you be able to let members of NCMUG, know that they are welcome to participate in GGCS events? I think most probably know us!

Russ, et al: If I am remembering rightly the Genealogical Society (GS) has had a place in the GGCS Announcements. On the basis of that I inferred, obviously incorrectly, that the GS even though not a GGCS SIG, had a sister-type relationship with us. By sister-type relationship I believed there was a mutually beneficial arrangement (agreement?) whereby GS benefited through our Announcements, and GGCS benefited by offering a enriched menu of regular presentations. Naturally as you are a longtime Steering Committee Board Member I defer to you on what is the formal or informal relationship between GS and GGCS. In a strict sense I guess my example was not perfect. Thanks very much for the heads up, and a chance for me to explain. I however hope my intent is not missed.

Hi All, I think the NCMUG opportunity is great, and the possible tie-ins Babette suggests too are very good. Since I am not familiar with NCMUG it?s various generations I wonder: 1. Is there a separate membership cost to NCMUG? (Babette stipulated a GGCS membership fee required in a collaborative arrangement ). 2. Could GGCS and NCMUG foster an encompassing sister relationship between each other? For example GGCS has a sister relationship with the Genealogical Society. 3. Since GGCS collects email addresses at its SIGS for GGCS announcements only can we explore the efficacy and the how-to of hooking SIG attendees directly into NCMUG? Collaboration of NCMUG with GGCS should enrich both. Generally GGCS SIG leaders are professional consultants, technology professionals and/or experienced teachers, so that GGCS brings skills to the table complementing NBMUG.. Thanks Jim, Emily and Babette for stimulating, testing and facilitating the potential for a great supplemental experience for GGCS leaders and its members.

For a long time, I've felt it would be worthwhile for GGCS to have some kind of forum on line, similar to the old BBS . It would enable people to ask questions or make comments between meetings. It also would be a way for SIGs with low attendance to keep their topics going and help people if they decide to shut down. If interest and traffic on such a forum increases, we could consider occasional meetings or classes around the topic. If my quarterly Quicken SIG doesn't result in better attendance, I plan to give up the ghost after our meeting in December and keep my Email List going for those who have questions and need help.

Message-ID: <20180514.141257.22418.2@webmail07.dca.untd.com> Hey folks...I think we have two things going here. 1. Russ asked about the sister relationship with Marin Genealogical Society, in reference, I think, to something Heinz said. It's always been my impression that we had a sort of a collegiall relationship with them, in the sense that we post notices of their meetings in our announcements, and I assumed they post ours. Since Heinz belongs to both groups, he sort of keeps track of this. Also, many of our members belong to their groups, and our August presenter, Gene Pennington, is their former Prez. 2. The other issue is NBMUG, which I think Jim Oser told us is disbanding, and I made the suggestion that we should ask to be added to their on line discussion group so we could announce our GM's there and invite them to attend. ---------- Original Message ---------- From: Marcelino Nogueiro To: Kathy Hunsicker , Russ , Jim Oser Cc: "sigleaders at ggcs.org" , GGCS-Steering , List for the Presentations Committee Subject: Re: [Sigleaders] [Ggcs-steering] [Ggcs-presentations] Fwd: [ncmug] Don't miss out, OPT IN NOW to th e new NCMUG-Alumni email discussion list.
