Wes,

Please post your announcement in the LUG's forum too. We'd like LUG meetings to be announced there. Then if you wish, post a second announcement (short) here, with a link back to the LUG forum announcement.

It is our goal that all AUGI members will expect to find their LUG information in that forum. Until it is the "norm", a second post in the product community forums is a good idea. There is also a LUG specific calendar to add your meeting to.

Thanks!

Would like to be there. Unfortunately three days is too short a notice. See you in Las Vegas!

Ack! Joe! Are you not on our e-mail list? You would got notice over a month ago! I'll make sure you're on the list. Sorry, mate!

Thanks for the info Steve. The LUG page is just the calendar, right? You click the event and it takes you to the description?

OK. I got it. I just hate to stick anything about Revit under a heading called "CAD Management"

Yuk.

...The LUG page is just the calendar, right?...There is a forum for LUG's under the cad mgmt forum and a separate LUG's page, much like the Revit community page(s). The calendar for LUG's is accessible through this LUG's page. The forum is meant for LUG related discussion, not just announcements and the calendar...well that's fairly obvious..right?

Oh...also we're thinking that announcements here ought to end up in the arch practice forum, at least that's where we've been putting them...moving this one there...

Thanks!

Saw your reply post..post... Yeah...LUG's might be better located under AUGI forum banners instead...but that's where it lives at the moment.

This is probably as good a place as any for it -- I suspect most people don't look on the LUG pages much, and posting something here on the Revit area of the forum is the most likely way someone who might be interested might find out about it. Revit General is the most viewed forum of the all the Revit forums, I would think?

Cheers!
