the only double-post in the last 3-4 days was the above question. IGLU
is defining itself as it goes along. Hopefully it is becoming the home
for the LUG activities, activism, active support and newbie (active)
help. linux-il will stay linux-il: the too-generally named list for
professional Linux power-users, sysadmins and programmers, discussing
the least trivial questions without the pro/newbie ratio it "sufferes"
from today.
This is how I offered it several times in the last week on the list and
so far won the agreemant of the audiance by recieving no objections at
all (nor agreeing voices either, mind you...)
So now it's once again in the archives, and will appear on the good ol'
website (cobwebsite) RSN.
This is IGLU and that's what we hope to make it. Anyone asking about
basic kernel compile woes, tcpd and qpopper questions, wu-ftpd config
and ipppd, go to IGLU. If you have questions about programming sockets
in perl, flying pigs' kernel drivers and hacking on Fribidi GtK widgets,
linux-il is the place to roam.
We hope thus to help everyone, and help maintain the flow of mail. I
don't know about others here, but some of us don't read mail on saturday
(religious reasons, a very romantic weekend with the SO in the snow, or
just hate checking the work Email account on weekends), and opening the
linux-il folder on sunday to find ~40 messages waiting is kinda
frustrating :-)
happy hacking!
Ira.
