One other thing which I don't know why is that not many people on the alug list knew that the camlug even existed but I think quite a few have now signed up to the camlug mailing list.
I knew camlug existed, but at the time ALUG formed, it appeared to be mostly idling and didn't answer emails. I think we had a couple of visitors who were also camluggers at the early meetings in Woodbridge. Initially ALUG seemed to spend much time over the very east of our region, so I guess we weren't that attractive to the Cambridge area and camlug returned to ignoring us?
Personally, I'm not really significantly nearer Cambridge than other ALUG venues, and each camlug meeting appears to be less of an event (with fun kit!) than an ALUG meeting (but maybe this is wrong), so I'm not terribly inclined to make the tedious trek to Cambridge and couldn't get there every week anyway.
