From mark at welshdragon.headweb.co.uk Tue Sep 1 15:40:14 2009 From: mark at welshdragon.headweb.co.uk (Mark Jones) Date: Tue, 01 Sep 2009 15:40:14 -0000 Subject: [Rhonddacynontaff Linux] Something that *might* help the community References: Message-ID: <55C39387-4AE5-48CA-82D7-3246286891F1@welshdragon.headweb.co.uk> I have been thinking hard about how best to help the LUG Community in Wales (Read: Wales), and yes, I can agree that email is a very good way of communicating, but I am sure some members would appreciate somewhere they can visit, and to help express ideas and opinions that otherwise could not be said in an email. I am currently trialling a forum for the North Wales LUG (who also use LinkedIN), but as we are quite a small LUG I am opening it up to every LUG in Wales. The forum is at http://freeside.co.uk/~welshdragon/phpBB3/index.php (apologies about the bad url), Freeside itself is part of Hull University, and thrives on their use of Open Source Servers, the server the MySQL database is on is running Debian. If you feel that this would be of use, please register on the forums and private message me, I will create a dedicated area for your LUG (If I haven't done so already), and also you will be able to see what other Groups are discussing, and contribute if desired.
