I don't think anyone has particularly missed the other two lists<br>

it is "announce" or "social".<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yup, totally agree.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex">

There's also that the front page looks kind of bad with only a<br>

more meetups. :)<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Before the ones I put on it had a 2 year old meeting on it ;) and to be honest it is a testament to the guilt I feel about not being able to put a meet on recently.

Do you keep backups of the site at all, or know who does? That's<br>
probably the priority as I suspect the site is run by Jason Clifford<br>
who can be difficult to contact, and there may not be accessible backups.</blockquote><div><br></div><div>Good point, I just did an export of the RSS feed though Serendipity.<br></div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex">
<br>
It seems like a good idea for us to get access to the domain<br>
registration as well in the longer term, for similar reasons - it<br>
would be a shame to lose <a href="http://gllug.org.uk" target="_blank">gllug.org.uk</a> in the event of Jason<br>
disappearing.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Indeed. Would be good to grab even an hour of Jason's time to sort out the DNS and resolve this. I know some people have seen him around if you could get him to contact me.<br>
