[SC.LUG] ping!

[sc@mailman.lug.org.uk]

Richard (and all....)

Wires do seem to be a bit crossed....

The situation is this:

iTS-LiNUX are happy to donate space, mail services and other bits.
There is and always has been a cost attached to this, which we accept.
The object from our point of view is to promote the LUG and the 
open-source community generally. 

However, if the resources aren't used , the object is lost leaving only 
the
cost remaining. As this is a business, we have no choice but to look at
expenditure to see if is achieving it's aim.  The morals of business don't
come into it... it makes demands of us that we are obliged to fulfill.

In plaintext this means if the site is used and achieves some of it's aims
then it is worthwhile. If it isn't used and achieves nothing it is a waste 
of time
and money. 

We are happy to support the LUG in whatever way we can and if anything
would get more involved than we are now.

We ask only that you do something with it. 

Maybe I'm missing something but it seems simple enough to me. :-)

Cheers all

Andy
