Wgtn meeting Wed 16 July 2025

 It's the July meeting so it must be the annual general meeting - and so it is. However, this is going to be an AGM with a  difference because the future of the club is going to be discussed. Some time ago we learned that the rules for incorporated societies, of which we are one, are going to be updated (I wont go into the details here about what that actually entails)  and your committee decided early on that most of the rule changes didn't apply to us and as a consequence we would go our separate way. That means that we essentially become just a group of friends and there will be no subscription charges for members or newsletters after a date in April next year when the new rules will apply. If your subscription is to be renewed before that appointed date, you will be asked to pay a proportion of the usual amount. depending on the number of months involved. If, for whatever reason, you disagree with our decision come to the meeting and put  your case forward. We would love to hear it.

After the above discussion, Roger will talk about Win11 and what it provides that isn't present in Win10 and suggestions as to what to do when the October date arrives and support for Win10 is going to be turned off.

 As always, the meeting will be held at 39 Washington Avenue, Brooklyn, in Ron Oliver's basement, starting at 6:30 pm.
