Errol,

Here is a site you may find useful when you're collecting your thoughts:
I don't necessarily agree with everything he says, but it's pretty good
overall.

I do especially agree with points four (You need a regular meeting time)
and five (You need to avoid meeting-time conflicts).   Although I
realize that your LUG idea is for Fayetteville, which is not the
immediate Triangle area, but you may find this site still useful to
resolve meeting-time conflicts:
