Re: Problem to subscribe without a google account

We've gone without a website for half a decade now; are you sure there's a
real need?

Linux has gone from being a niche product to being utterly ubiquitous; the
practice of systems administration has likewise gone from a collection of
lore to a fairly well-understood discipline. Under the circumstances, my
feelings are that ILUG's mission is largely complete, and its remaining
function is largely social.
