A few days ago, the mail server for the WLUG list ate it's hard drives.
Luckily, none of the WLUG subscriber data was lost. The machine has been
rebuilt, and full list service should be restored. If anyone has any problem
at all with the list, please let me know and I'll see what I can do.

Red Hat will discontinue maintenance and errata support for Red Hat
Linux 9 as of April 30, 2004. Red Hat does not plan to release another
product in the Red Hat Linux line.
So what distro is everyone going to switch to?

Hi Everybody,
We have a WLUG meeting coming up this Wednesday, November 5th, at 7:00 PM in
the Access Grid room on the WPI campus. Please check the WLUG website for
directions to this location.
At this meeting, I'd like to take a few minutes to discuss the "WLUG TV" show
that was proposed at the last meeting, and which seems to have considerable
interest from quite a few people in WLUG. We are fortunate that we have
people in WLUG who have experience in this area, and that we have folks who
have the energy and desire to do this type of work. I would like to identify
those people who definitely wish to participate, and perhaps a project
leader.
In a few minutes, I'm going to start installing SuSE Linux 9.0 on my laptop.
If I get it working, and can learn enough about its distinguishing features,
I'll discuss that at the meeting also. If I hit problems, or if I don't have
enough time to play with it, I'll defer this topic to the December meeting.
To be completely fair, if somebody wants to address a WLUG meeting to discuss
the latest features of their favorite distribution, please let me know, and
we can arrange this. For example, I'm curious to know more about Gentoo, or
how to install Knoppix on my hard drive, or why Debian's "apt-get" is
supposedly better than rpms.
If people have some quick 5-15 minute topics for this meeting, bring them
along and we can discuss them as a group. Tech support types of questions
are always welcome, as are new user questions. If you are bashful, send me
the question and I'll ask it at the meeting. :-)
Later,
Andy
