  Re: Could we get .org.au up soon
 
(...) Please have an official from either or both of LegOz and Studs contact me and I'll set up the groups/lists. What I need to know is: 1. Which of the following do you want created? a. lugnet.org.au b. lugnet.org.au.studs c. lugnet.org.au.legoz (...) (24 years ago, 19-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Could we get .org.au up soon
 
(...) Is this Santosh's ball (STUDLY Wordsmith To The Powers That Be) or do we need a new hat? Whilst It's nice to have Ben raise the issue again some consensus (as much as possible given the tyranny of distance) should be reached. For this reason (...) (24 years ago, 19-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: Could we get .org.au up soon
 
"James Howse" wrote a good summary of the ins and outs of the proverbial aquatic fowl's digestive system. I didn't sense any support for .org.au.studs at the recent get together either, nor for .org.au.legoz. .org.au would seem to make sense in (...) (24 years ago, 19-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  To Todd - Could we get .org.au up soon
 
Todd, Consider this to be as official or unofficial as you like, as chances are I'll just cut'n'paste an email to you from this if thats whats required. Recently the traffic on Lugnet under the loc.au groups have indicated that there's a significant (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: To Todd - Could we get .org.au up soon
 
I think I'll butt in just right now. In lugnet.loc.au, Santosh Bhat writes a good explanation for creating an NG for Oz orgs. (...) Hmm. There was an issue that came up in the "market splitting" dicussion, and I think it is applicable here. If at (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: To Todd - Could we get .org.au up soon
 
Shiri, Thanks for pointing this out, Now I feel like a real goose. Apologies I'm on about three hours sleep here. I did intend to mean a loc.org.au and NOT loc.au.org I think I'll e-mail Todd seperately on this one. (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

In lugnet.loc.au, Santosh Bhat writes(badly): (...) No, actually we request a loc.org.au (misteak #1) (...) No,loc.org.au will be used for discussion (misteak #2) (...) Again, the group will remain as loc.org.au (misteak #3) (...) Ditto, (misteak (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: To Todd - Could we get .org.au up soon
 
(...) <grin> For starters, no reason to feel like a goose. And secondly - that would be lugnet.org.au - no ".loc" present whatsoever. That's how the US and Canadian org groups work (lugnet.org.us, lugnet.org.ca). And finally, go to sleep! :-) -Shiri (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

Oh dear, I've made a balls-up of this totally. (...) Yep bingo thats it! Lugnet.org.au One more time for the sleepyheads (me) lugnet.org.au (...) I can't, my boss sits in the glass walled office behind me, and it's not even lunch time yet. Still (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

(...) I assume you mean .org.au ? (...) OK, got it. (I assume you mean .org.au, though.) (...) Based on previous discussions, is it correct to assume that this explicitly includes auctions? (...) OK, that's fine. The .loc.us group is similar in that (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: To Todd - Could we get .org.au up soon
 
Todd, Indeed I did mean org.au my bad. And the rest sounds fine. Regarding auctions, I believe that we do want to be able to post auction announcemnet/updates, but i'd expect that it won't end up being just a marketplace as the auction postings here (...)

  Re: To Todd - Could we get .org.au up soon
 
(...) Thanks Todd, this sounds like the go. So I'll just nod in agreement and let the others add comments etc, once their noses are off their respective grindstones, it's the middle of the working day here (for some), so these comments will be (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  formation of .org.au (was Re: To Todd - Could we get .org.au up soon)
 
In lugnet.loc.au, Santosh Bhat and Todd Lehman write worthy stuff on the formation of .org.au Sounds cool to me, and I think it encapsulates what was discussed at the last Studs get together, as well as meeting the needs discussed here in .loc.au (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

At the risk of sounding like another "me too" post... <general nodding and thumbs up> This will serve a pretty good purpose, not the least being to educate people like myself in the advantages and importance of the Lugnet Structure(TM).

(...) Ah, some things are learned only at Chem class. Like the art of sleeping-while- looking-awake. Believe me, I'm a master at this one (and I still got an A for the year! ;-). -Shiri (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: To Todd - Could we get .org.au up soon
 
Can we limit auction posting only to members of .org.au? Given that countries like New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Fiji etc, probably wont have their own organisations forming, we may have to admit them as members into .org.au. Or does this then (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
