   there are now over 200 email names on the 
sf-lug mailing list. 

   i have to pay money to keep the dns names of 
sf-lug.{com,org,new} up. there's been a little 
off-line discussion: maybe some of you could 
chip in, too, but not by giving money to me. 
   i'm willing to pay the money to advance the 
linux FOSS cause and hope that you'll be willing 
to do something too: 
* help christian build boxes 
* help Alameda County Computer Resource Center 
* help st. anthony's (this saturday and about 
once per quarter) support the low-income set 
* help with linuxworld this coming august 
* talk a friend into converting to linux or some 
other FOSS platform (e.g. *BSD) 
* opine as to the need to pay for sf-lug.net 
* volunteer to do some sysadm work, especially 
help bring the new box online (it's a XEN-based 
host that supports separate VMs for sf-lug.com, 
balug.org, and a generic community do-gooders 
host. also, take charge of some services or 
some part of the web page tree. 
* do some other thing, anything, to advance the 
linux FOSS cause
