Yes, my company has been sponsoring the gnhlug and centralug domain names since nearly day-1. And more recently, the web sites, and even more recently, the mailing lists. > I was suggesting we do one of a few things to enhance this a bit: > One of: > Make a new mailing list that accepts mail from addresses not sub'd What do you propose that mailing list to be named?

I (and quite a few others) would immediately unsubscribe from that list if spam were permitted. I can set the centralug mailing list that way if you want (and I'll make you and Ed be the moderator, but I'll personally unsubscribe from it at the first sign of spam). > Make a shared webmail account that a couple of people have the > password to I'm not sure what you mean by webmail (can you give me an example)? Just a forewarning - I'm not going to put any package that doesn't run on Linux on the server shared by gnhlug. > And then: > Change the tech/admin contacts on gnhlug.org and centralug.org > to the new address. I'd prefer to run the two systems in parallel for a while first. Note that I'm more than willing to point the domain names to other servers that are willing to host the sites, but I need to be sure that they're going to represent the group in the light the group wants to be represented in. (For instance, we can afford it, we control if/any ads placed on it, and its linux based.) > This would help the continuity of the group later on if you ever decided > you wanted to travel the country and visit all the major balls of twine or > something.

I only manage the systems as an agent of CodeMeta. As one of the agents of GNHLUG, I do what I can to make sure their content is "appropriate". > > I'm not sure what you meant by "is assign domains/IP Space/etc", but I'm > > not sure its practical to get additional IP space and domain names > > without someone paying for it.

Ah good. Join the club - you're amonst friends.
