Very pleased to hear of it!  It's a challenge to keep things running for a
long term; if you have a small group, it's tough to keep on finding interesting
things to bring to the group on an ongoing basis, and to keep the
organizational bits going.  It makes sense to try to draw people in to
share the organizational load, so that there's the possibility that it won't
just "die" when someone moves away.

It likely makes some sense for you to take a peek at GTALUG's old talks
(see http://gtalug.org/wiki/Category:TLUG_Meeting)
to see if there are any where you could invite a speaker in; we're not too
far away, and no doubt it's worth connecting a bit.

We've got a Wiki page on regional LUGs, and what's still live (some groups
have doubtless died off) would be worth also looking at as resources to
talk to.

If you set up a web presence, it would be good to link that in.  Due to
spamming troubles, we've locked access to set up wiki accounts; ask
and we can make sure it can get updated.
