Subject: [LC Interest] virtual installfest New Year's day (fwd)
========== Forwarded message ==========
We're having a virtual installfest on New Year's day
based on Live CDs and, hopefully, helping new users
go from there to an installation on their hard drive.
You're welcome to join us online!
Details are online at
http://lug.basiclinux.net/installfest/index.html
Spread the word!

This is an automated report about activity of our newsgroup
comp.os.linux.announce. It covers period between the
previous report and the current one, ending
on Mon Dec 27 00:05:02 CST 2004.
Note that we do not report the number of articles cancelled
after they got approved, because the cancellations are done
manually. Typically messages get cancelled by requests of
posters themselves.
Lastly, the statistics below are skewed towards higher numbers because
there are always some test messages from moderators themselves who
approve and reject them to make sure that our robomoderator functions
properly.
Approved: 28 messages
Rejected: 9 messages

Subject: Hosting for a site, blog, etc...
Please pass the word around, if you know anyone who needs reliable and
affordable (no charge!) hosting of GNU/Linux related content.
You can set up a website, blog and possibly also a mailing list. Contact
the IOSN.net. My friend Sunil Abraham is there, and they're offering
free space. Kindly visit ILUG-Goa links there at
http://ilug-goa.notlong.com
http://iluggoa.iosn.net
We invite you'll to share information with Goa; how about becoming partner
LUGs?
Regards from the west coast of India, FN
