Re: [plug] PLUG Digest, Vol 37, Issue 10

2008-04-03 Thread Gabriel H. Mercado
Thanks Jun I will work on it. Also, you have a nice Linux oriented blog, so
I'll add your feed.

The website, to be completely honest, isn't ready yet. We're doing
everything in mine (and Marc's) spare time.

Trabahong hinog sa pilit I'm sure, but we're getting there. Patience,
friends.

Quick comment. I tried to register, but the Birth Date drop down seems to be
missing the numbers from 11 to 20. Also, we may have a number of members who
were born before 1970. :)
