Hi all (if there is anyone still reading messages to this list),

I have been admin for the Scarborough LUG email list for the past 8 
years, and now due to lack of use, I have decided it is time to close it 
down.

There are many good resources available online for those needing 
assistance with Linux, so I feel the usefulness of this list is past its 
use by date.

I wish you all well.

Cheers,
Ross.

Thanks, Ross.
Yes, I always read the posts.  Used to live in Whitby, and retained a 
house there until about 2012 although working in London then in Kent, 
and attended the SLUG meetings.  Now live in Canterbury.
End of an era!
Best wishes and good night to all.
Martin Webb

Evening,

Messages still received and read.

Seems like a sensible decision. Think LUG's as a concept are a bit dated
now - though I do miss the simplicity and civility of a well moderated
mailing list.

We had a good run. I can still remember the initial trepidation I had
when going to the first meeting. None of you were quite as bad as I
feared, and we had some fun.

All the best to you all.

Jamie

Makes sense, but I'll miss y'all and miss the days.

See you on an open-source hoverboard sometime soon.
