Jerusalug and haifux are not mentioned, that's true. I counted 4 others
though: linux-il, linux-il-announce, IGLU, and iglu-web.

that is not my responsability. if Shachar Tal or Shlomi Fish want to
help me fix that link they are welcome to give me the correct details,
since I don't have them.

hardly a logical flaw, it's an inside joke that has worn thin.

it's OK, we don't want to scare them too much. but I'll make it a bit
more eye catching soon enough.

I know, I got 3 this morning, they hurt. I'm sorry, but this thread is

I didn't mean to aim THAT low, Omer. I only meant that lots of people
don't come to linux meetings for lots of reasons and some people DO come
to the finished product but are not interested in all the work that goes
on behind it. IT'S PERFECTLY OK! I don't BLAME them for not actively
helping, au contrair, I SAVE them the bother of reading the threads
about all the plans and then just send them the announcement when it's
all good and ready. is it SUCH a bad idea?

maybe you missed the point of what IGLU@eGroups is for then...
