Sonam,

http://www.progsoc.uts.edu.au/lists/slug/current/

and click '[thread]' for 'threaded SLUG archive love'.


Now, a search engine? Show me a good, flexible, free software search engine
(challenge open to everybody) that conforms to the requirements listed on
http://www.debian.org/search and I'll show you a great big RMS-style
bearhug.


The FAQ is something that's been wanting for ages. Let's automate it
with something like FAQ-O-Matic (only with an interface that doesn't
make you run for the nearest CDE machine in the office), and have it run
on the new server. Proposals welcome.


slug-pearls? I *really* like that name, and, just because I'm a sucker
with no respect for my time, I'm going to use it. Stay tuned this Sunday
for the first issue of SLUG Pearls, coming to a slug.org.au near you.

Hopefully, if everyone's response to mine is good, someone will be
inspired to say "HEY! I feel like one of those, where can I get one?"


You heard it here first.
