Re: Fwd: Suggestion: virtual lug talks

The easiest way around legibility would be to ask Linux Australia to 
"own" the domain which multiple versions of the committee have *already 
agreed to*.

However, the domain was handed to someone else because of various 
reasons (the main one, I think, being that every time it looked like it 
could happen volunteer teams got busy - life happens).

The birds tell me that Kim is looking for the backups of the LinuxSA 
web-site, by the way...
