This is an age-old question. Right?  I tried to no-avail to run a local
chapter of sage-au. But when the masses just don't care, how can you
continue? I can only use sage-au as my example as that's all the
experience I have. When you try hard for a long time and it just doesn't
improve you kind of get burnt out.

This is a problem in our industry and will not change till more people
get involved, while the people who try get burnt out.

sage-au is a perfect platform for such lobbyist actions, despite what
others on this list think(I'm looking at you Noel...). The group covers
networks and systems. If only more people joined that'd have a growing
voice.

So the question is, we have the org that can help, will you support them?
