[ILUG] forming a LUG in Midlands area

[Dave Airlie]

It would take as long to get from North Tipp to Longford as Bray to Lucan
 for example (by car), so I still think Midlands LUG, is valid :-P...

Midlands LUG should cover  Laois, Offaly, Longford and Westmeath as per
the Midlands health board, and we'll allow Roscommon as well :-)

maybe we should base our sub-LUGs on the health board model!!

Dave.
