NZPUG Incorporated Society preparations

[Tim Knapp]

Hello all,

Danny Adair and I (well mostly Danny) have been getting things organised
for incorporating the NZPUG non-profit society. This will ensure in
particular that we have a defined set of objectives for the NZPUG. It'll
also help in things such as producing receipts for sponsors, get some
capital behind us (in member fees - still TBC) so we can organise bigger
events/etc.

In line with this, at the *upcoming Christchurch NZPUG meetup* we were
going to start the ball rolling in discussing the incorporation of the
NZPUG non-profit society. Some links to get people thinking prior to the
meetup are here:
http://www.community.net.nz/How-ToGuides/LegalStructures/PublicationsResources/incorpsoc.htm
http://www.wlug.org.nz/NewZealandIncorporatedSocietyHowto
http://www.wlug.org.nz/WlugCharter

Our *main goal* will be to get some consensus on the rules/charter of
the NZPUG so this will be something we'll discuss after the Christchurch
meetup on Friday. Whatever comes out of the meetup will be posted back
up here for others to discuss.

Thanks,
Tim

I can't resist also taking the opportunity to point you to a good
Python/Plone powered website to go with this... ;)
