[Auugps] Incorporation

[Frank Crawford]

I'd like to see one other object added:

- to arrange for the storage and archiving of any other AUUG
publications that are seen to be historically significant.

Also, it is AUUG Incorporated, not "AUstralian Unix Users Group
Incorporated".  While historically many knew of the longer name, that
was not used for incorporation.
