  Re: Next NELUG meeting and potential Group project(s).
 
(...) I've got two RCXes that I could extract from their current hosts to be used in a project like this. I'd also like to offer up my humble abode for the next (or any) NELUG meeting. I live in Walpole, which is south-west of Boston. (About halfway (...)

  Re: Next NELUG meeting and potential Group project(s).
 
(...) How many RCXs do we have between us all? It might be fun to create some sort of large group-behavior system. (I've got one; my friend paul has another that I might be able to borrow even if he's not coming.)

  NELUG Update
 
Just thought I would give a quick update. We had our second meeting on August 31st at my house and we had 5 attendies.

  Update (Re: Next NELUG meeting and an E-mail Issue.)
 
(...) As all NELUG Members should be aware, I solved this problem by setting up a mailing list that all members can use to contact the group. The mailing address for the list was sent out in a mail message last week. If you did not get this message (...)

  Looking for Member Sites for NELUG
 
I have started a Member Site page on NELUG and I only had a few URL's for some member sites.

  Next NELUG meeting and an E-mail Issue.
 
I wanted to let you all know I am having a problem sending E-mails out to all of you. It seems that when I include you all on an E-mail the pair mail router is interpreting it as SPAM. Of course it is not SPAM but I have a couple of Ideas for a (...) (25 years ago, 17-Aug-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ma, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos, lugnet.loc.us.ct, lugnet.loc.us.nh, lugnet.loc.us.ri)

  1 Thing I forgot to mention (was Re: NELUG in Melrose MA on Tuesday)
 
Just thought I should mention that I have 2 cats for those that might have allergy's.
