Re: Computerbank VIC Procedures & Policies
Briefly, I am very grateful to be able to track the experiences of
Computerbank in Victoria and in Western Australia. We are coming up to our
Inaugural General Meeting of the New South Wales Chapter of Computerbank
on 30th April at 5.30pm at UTS in or near the room scheduled for the SLUG
meeting. I am looking forward to meeting potential members that night.
