No, there has been discussions on RMS, Linux Microserver, The 2.5
Kernel, Microsoft's "investments" in India, suid server, and what not :)
For fonts - there is a specific mailing list 
http://www.nongnu.org/freebangfont/lists.html

See, you are making a mistake by assuming that you will get instant
replies
A golden rule here is to wait for at least 4 days before reasking 
Sometimes, the LUGger concerned may be too busy to reply - please
understand that :)
We are not a very large LUG, and our resources (manpower, especially)
are limited
Also, if you want the CDs that badly the contact details of
Siddhartha-da are already there :D
Hope you will understand .

But being a lone burner is tough - can anyone in Saltlake area take up
the task too??

PS: ...and what am I doing at 3:30 in the night ??
