Hi folks

I'm going to restore the circa 2003 install fest website for a laugh
with a bit of new no-clug content to explain what it is.  ( I kept a
copy, dunno why. ;-) )

The grey-beards will remember that was on linuxnut.co.nz, we moved to
clug.org.nz in 2004 I think?  The whois suggests august '04.  We had
some stuff on linuxnut from late 2001.  I originally bought the domain
just as a vanity domain but put the club info on it when we were having
regular meetings in town.

I see Nick R. is still the owner of linuxnut.co.nz, but there's no site
on it although it has been used as the domain for the CHCH robotics
group list since 6/9/2006.  Before that the robotics list was on
rout.co.nz.  I might get Nick to point the A record for that at the
install fest site as well.

Nick took over the registration for both domains from me at some point,
probably early 2006? Would have been after I stopped doing bulk hosting
and swore I would never do it again...  Famous last words.

Memories..  :-)

Cheers, Chris H.
