    I suspect that some on the JALUG "discussion group" (including myself) don't like the mailing list format of "discussion" as it isn't very interactive at all. :-\ Since you also raised the issue of JALUG, why can't JALUG assist in getting the latest distros around?

    Thats a tricky one. Our usual meeting time and place was the first Saturday of each month at the Liguanea Cyber Centre. In recent times, the turn out for these meetings had fallen off so the powers that be decided to in effect, convert the LUG to a 'virtual' group, with discussions held online and having a meeting only when a pressing matter needs to be discussed.

    So right now that's where we stand. Another thing is the the Cyber Centre has changed location. It's now situated on the first floor of the HWT Post Office. So in the future, that's where we will converge.
