Should DCFCPUG.org add a forums page?
Our user group quickly amassed an impressive number of members, and the first meeting had a surprisingly good turnout (thanks to lots of help from industry stalwarts). But, are users looking for forums here? Or are the Apple, Creative Cow, 2-Pop and other global forums enough to scratch everyone’s itch?
Personally, I see potential for a forum containing discussions about the local scene, and maybe filling in some holes left open by the bigger forums (which can be impersonal on occasion). That said, nothing is more pathetic than a page full of forums that sit fallow - populated only with a few lonely posts by the moderators, who try desperately to invite debate.
So, forums or no forums? Please vote by adding your Comments below.

With vendors in town and editors in a tizzy over the soon-arriving Final Cut Studio World Tour, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to have a meeting.
Here are the details:
| Date: |
Monday, June 2nd |
| Time: |
7:00pm - 10:00pm |
| Place: |
GW University Campus (Downtown DC)

There is no cost to attend this event! Please RSVP by email, as seating may be limited. Also, please register to become a member of the DCFCPUG. It’s free and easy!
We will endeavor to keep you informed of meeting developments, including which vendors have agreed to attend. The more RSVPs we get, the better leverage we may have to get more vendors (and maybe even some freebies).
So, please spread the word, and we hope to see you there!
The District of Columbia Final Cut Pro User Group has launched a re-designed site, which we will build out over the next few weeks. Our goal is to be worthy of attending the Final Cut Studio tour when it comes to town on June 3rd.
So check back often. In the meantime, please register as a user group member. Welcome!
