Re: Beginner CL/RPG articles

[Jim Oberholtzer <midrangel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think the Madison group has all but given up.  I don't know of a 
meeting in quite some time.  If there is someone out there that does 
know of meetings, please let me know.  If I remember, an IBMr was really 
driving the group and I think he moved on within IBM to other 
responsibilities.
