And all good things (or not so good things) must come to an end. On May 6, 2004, I started a mailing list "909Linux" for people in the 909 area code. 3,010 days later, I have no idea who the majority of the members on the list are, or what area code they would come from... but that's OK :) As the size and nature of the group has changed over the years, it seems the value of this list has decreased a lot, especially in the past 12 months, as our Riverside meetings have waned as well.
Due to cost-cutting, an aggressive re-budgeting of my time, and moving a bunch of domains off of this server, leading to I have no idea when or where these files will end up, I'm taking the mailing list and website offline tonight. Probably for good. I plan on hanging on to the socallinux.org domain, and may re-purpose it in the future, if there is a need. For now, first, let me say thanks to everyone that contributed to this group over the years. I have learned a lot from you all. Secondly, I want to encourage you to continue to interact, both with the people on this list, and a potentially larger group of Linux users in Southern California, by doing the following: * JOIN the Facebook group: http://www.facebook.com/groups/socallinux/ it is currently administered by http://www.facebook.com/cantormath * CREATE yourself a 'circle' of Linux people from SoCal in Google+ * ATTEND SCALE 11x next February, and for many years to come: http://socallinuxexpo.org/ * LOCATE another local LUG to attend and participate (start with the list below...) As this list is now offline, any questions can be sent to my e-mail.
