Hi folks,<br>
<br>
I'm still here as well. Been moving house and renovating lately, so
not much time for other stuff.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately the LUG had been been pretty quiet for the the 5 years
I've been a 'member'. I think it must have lost it's life when a few
of the key members moved out of the area. There has only been a
handful of meet-ups since I joined the list, and list activity is
very quiet.<br>
<br>
I'm a web developer, I use opensuse linux on my desktop and laptop,
have a Nokia N900 mobile phone that runs Maemo linux (even have
openoffice on it), and run CentOS and opensuse on my webservers. I'm
probably more interested in discussing linux use on webservers or
mobile (not android, but Maemo, Meego, Moblin,Tizen and Mer, etc.)
So <b>@Fintan, definitely interested in Raspberry Pi</b>. <br>
<br>
I feel a bit of the odd one out when it comes to desktop, because I
use KDE on opensuse - and I don't really like Ubuntu and Gnome. I've
found what suits me on the desktop and I'm well past the stage of
trying out lots of distros (except for maybe tablet and mobile phone
- where I think the future is).<br>
<br>
I would be more inclined to organise or attend a meet-up if I saw
there was some real discussion of linux on this list. <br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Ross.<br>
<br>

<pre wrap="">Hello to any remaining folks on this list,
This month (approximately) marks 10 years since the Scarborough LUG
was founded. I thought it was worth sending out a quick email to mark
this date.
Clearly the lug has seen better days, but I think that is reflected
across the country. Perhaps LUGS are now an anarchic and redundant
form of communication in the world of twitter, facebook et all. Shame
though.
Still, I had fun & I hope that you did too.
Any of the original folks (Chris, Gav, Al, Iain etc) still subscribed?
I'd be interested to know what you are up to now.
Cheerio, and all the best to you all, whatever you are doing.
Jamie
