Well that penguin, and I dare say the Daiquiri are doing just fine. I'm very much alive and well thanks. I no longer have any 'influence' with the norfolk domain and have not had any for some months. As a result I was unable to keep the rubber band tightend up and oiled and the DNS crashed several times too often. The steps are bigger than linux.nf and the new name is an excellent and appropriate choice. Doug has done a tremendously good job with the Internet side of the Steps and the restrictive nature of the nf domain has prevented him, and others, from implementing even more goodies (aka jobs@). That said, your point is taken about the 'uniqueness' of having Norfolk Island in the soup and is indeed part of the magic. linux.nf remains as a registered entity, mostly to do with the vested interests of several of the editors. But as a website and mailgroup it is time to move on. -- http://linux.nf -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
