Hey Gang,
We've got a virtual meeting tomorrow here: https://meet.jit.si/WlugMA
Starting at 7pm until you know whenever.. I fully expect like our
last meetings, it'll go off the rails and we'll end up talking about Linux
and filesystems, and 3d printers and sci-fi and in general just a bunch of
nerds reveling in our nerdom.
See you tomorrow!
Later,
Tim.

Sorry everyone. We had more spam problems on the WLUG Mailing List
last night, and in the process of trying to remove that user I
accidentally removed everyone. I partly blame the poor Admin user
interface of Postorius--it has a "Unsubscribe All" button at the top
of the Member list even if that list has been filtered and says "List
Members (1)" due to the filter. So it is easy to misinterpret "All"
as being just the Members that are currently listed due to the filter.
I went through a backup of the member list I have from 2018, edited
the list based on all the subscription/remove requests since then, and
resubscribed everyone who hadn't removed themselves since. I could
have missed some email addresses, so I apologize if you have been
accidentally resubscribed when you shouldn't have been--feel free to
email me directly and I'll fix that. I could have also missed some
new subscriptions, so if you know someone who should be subscribed but
complains that they are no longer receiving posts, please let them
know to resubscribe.
I'm not sure if each user's subscription options have been retained,
so if you had set no email delivery or digest mode for example, you
may have to reconfigure that.
Finally, I have configured the mailing list to require moderator
approval for new membership requests and posts from all existing
members until I know that the member isn't a spammer. Over the next
few days I'll be going through the member list and unsetting
moderation on "known good" members.
I removed & banned the drive-by-spammer.
Here is Technocopia's website for those interested:

I like the idea of Hybrid meetings--some participants remote and some
in-person. It's hard to do well, though. Does Technocopia have a
videoconferencing setup with an in-room camera/mic system, projector,
and PC that could join Jitsi? Maybe we could help them set one up.
Hey Gang,
I just checked the website and Technopia is now open to the public. So...
not this meeting, but hopefully the next one we can have in person!
Please let me know how you feel about physical meetings. I'm amenable to
waiting another month or two if people are still weary.
Later,
Tim.

We've got a meeting tonight. We're online and jabbering away.

Hey Everybody!
We've got a meeting on Thursday! The pandemic continues and Technopia
continues to be closed so we'll continue to meet virtually at our same
location...
I hope everybody is doing okay.
Later,
Tim.
