[Nolug] Fwd: Twinning With New Orleans LUG

Y'all,

I visited our irc channel the other day, and someone was actually in it for a
change. It turns out that we apparently lost the channel due to inactivity,
because some other guy had ownership of the channel, according to the
ChanServ bot. The server is irc.freenode.net, and the channel is #nolug.

Anyhow, I made friends with one of the guys, from the Northern Ontario Linux
Users Group. Apparently they stuck me on their mailing list:

Hi All,

It appears that we share a name and an IRC chat room with another NOLUG, "The
 New Orleans Linux User's Group". We thought that our Freenode IRC chat room
 had been hijacked by cyber-terrorists but it turns out that they are normal
 Linux guys just like us but with a taste for Louisiana creole and Cajun
 music.

Here's what Dan discovered:

"Actually, Joey (http://joeykelly.net/) is a member of NOLUG,
 (http://www.nolug.org/) as in New Orleans. He's a good guy (a minister too).
 nolug.org used to make use of the #nolug chat room, but they had trouble
 getting enough regulars. After a certain amount of time without activity,
 one will lose ownership of the channel, and I guess that's when we came
 along. He said that he's willing to share if we are."

So if you are in the #nolug chat room don't be surprised to meet the guys
 from New Orleans.

I think that it would be a great idea to twin with their LUG along the lines
 of the city twinning concept. What say ye all?

Regards,

Richard Court, The Admin Guy
