| (...) Last week I e-mailed Todd asking if WAMALUG could have it's own group, but I haven't gotten a response yet. Although, I don't think I saw Todd posting as much as usual, so maybe he's been busy? (...) WAMALUG would be happy with a (...)

| | | | | Sub-Domain LUGS
|
| Hi, There are some new LUG's, for example KIDLUG, who's owners have been a little "nervous" about paying domain fees. Which service will I get, can I afford it, and will I have it forever cross their minds. Possibly created by a major LUG, for (...) (26 years ago, 16-Jan-00, to lugnet.org)

For now crossposting and the mailing-list work but a NELUG group would help consolidate things and it would not clutter all of the .loc groups with NELUG (...)

| (...) One problem that I see with that is then people on those loc-groups who don't want to see org-info get it anyway, and threads are spread over multiple groups messily. I think the newsgroups for LUGs idea is cool though :) Richard (26 years ago, 16-Jan-00, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.org, lugnet.org.us)

| | | | | Newsgroups for LUGs?
|
| I have an idea (which may or may not have been thought of, posted before) that I feel would greatly aid LUGs and their members. Could LUGNET add newsgroups for all the LUGs who want them and have them automagically crosspost to the regional groups (...)
