Good afternoon my fellow penguins,
I hope that every one is well and enjoying the summer, but i would
like to bring up a couple of topics or maybe shed some light on them
1. The Current MLUG Site - who is maintaining it? as i have noticed
alot of blank posts, and also the top right corner where the sponsored
links are missing. also if i am not mistaken if it was in books or
wiki i noticed that there are some spam.
2. The Next Generation MLUG site - this i know that Jonathan was to
setup wordpress and knowing him he would have it on lockdown against
spam, is there a preview that I and other members may look at to give
our feedback?
3. MLUG Facebook Fan Page: has this been done yet? all i know of MLUGS
foot print is on the OSSMALTA fan page where i have linked and marked
that ossmalta is in collaboration with MLUG.
4. This may be a bit off topic and i know most of you have noticed but
my attendance to the meetings has dropped, like most of you i work and
study, though i do try to make time to attend all the morning
meetings, but since i am bound by arriva, (similar to Alitalia -
always late on arrival and always late on departure) i somtimes end up
heading back home half way. May it be that i am departing from
mellieha, luqa, naxxar, b'bugia. and there have been occations when i
have had to pull all nighters on assignments that i end up crashing
prior to the meeting ( and almost any other saturday and sunday) but
this dosen't mean that i do not read the emails, or that i do not want
par-take. i am happy to say that as the past couple of weeks have
passed i have been working on VPS linux servers, and the more i use
them for web, the more i am understanding the inner-workings of the
interweb and wordpress.
5. OSSMALTA.com Wordpress: As i have mentioned above should i continue
to use a VPS (based in london), would Jonathan or Ramon allow me to
copy the ossmalta.com direcotry off the MLUG server to move it to my
new VPS, as not to continue consuming the current mlug server
resources at GO (who have been lowering the bandwidth and speed
lately, should GO continue to limit thier access to the MLUG server i
won't mind hosting it or a copy of the site should there be a need)
6. Online Marketing: This i admit is down on my future ossmalta plans,
but i guess most of you have seen the Linux Foundation youtube clip of
how linux is built, and maybe the Icentere advert (cartoon based),
though this is mostly a free medium, and at times i have a heavy load
but since its august and i have 2 more weeks of shutdown from work, i
am currently working on web projects (ossmalta and ossmedia) should
you like to discuss some sort of marketing material (which i mean is
artworks, Animations made in flash then hosted onto youtube) i may
highly contribute as that is where i am mostly experienced. (and i
know flash coded programs are dead, but its still nifty for videos,
animations and making presentations onto tv's and such)
Best regards,
Warren Camilleri
