VanLUG Mailing Lists / News Groups

1 May 2008 - 3:11pm — Ben Holt

VanLUG runs several mailing lists, all of which are open to the general public. Most of these mailing lists are also reproduced as news groups at news.gweep.ca

  • VanLUG - General
    The general mailing list. This is a relatively high volume list intended for the discussion of Linux, Free / Open Source Software, and VanLUG. Please keep posts on-topic.
  • VanLUG - Announce
    This is a low traffic mailing list reserved for announcing VanLUG meetings and events.
  • VanLUG - Offtopic
    This list is for off topic posts that, while not directly related to the general mailing lists's topics, are still likely to be of interest to VanLUG members. This is also a good place to post "for sale/giveaway" type posts.
  • VanLUG - Steering Group
    The VanLUG Steering Group list. Discussions regarding ongoing VanLUG organizational topics.
