just like to remind people about the plug-webteam meeting today. if anyone
else is interested in joining just email jess. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
btw, on behalf of the plug-webteam, the reason why the site is not a site
i would not even visit for once every three months is because it was
created by a handful of people and with ideas of a handful of people and
NOT the entire Philippine Linux Users Group. if only people will help
contribute instead of just asking what they want (hey, asking is good
too.) maybe there will more in the PLUG site now.
again i commend the people of q-linux, mr. ian sison and the rest of
our contributors for supporting us amidst the physical, emotional and
political turnmoil.
if you want the PLUG website to be more than what it is right now...your
voice should be heard and actions must be take... join the plug-webteam.

to incorporate or not to incorporate. i believe i do not really care. but
if someone is willing to "go through the process for us" then i think we
should all support him.
if mr. sy here is willing to move this for us then well and good.
