thanx dirk

many thanx to Dirk Slater for hosting us for free.

soon a new home for eglug

for a while eglug has been hosted on my old and struggling dedicated server, however there are many good reasons for eglug to move on to a seperate hosting setup, and most important amonf these reasons is our failure to figure a way to collect server fees regularly.

a few weeks ago the admin team (that is the old one), agreed to seek help from the larger FOSS community, we sent an email asking people to donate server space for eglug, recieved a bunch of great offers, most of the offers come from NGOs, these NGOs have boards and procedures and it will take time for any of them to deliver.

EGLUG.org upgraded to drupal 4.6

أخيرا تم ترقية برنامج دروبال المبني عليه موقع المجموعة الي الاصدارة 4.6

نذكركم أن ترقية الموقع تأخرت شهور عديدة مما سبب تعطل تنفيذ اقتراحات بتائة عديدة لتطوير الموقع و تحسينه.

أظن أن هذا التأخير علامة على تقصير من قبل فريق مديري الموقع المنتخب كما يمكن اعتباره أيضا جزء من خمول عام في المجموعة و قلة المشاركة من أعضائها القدامى و الجدد.

EGLUG reached +1000 member.

The first thousand is always the hardest,it should get easier from here.

Soon it will be the ten thousandth.

Somewhat of a milestone, we have now reached +1000 signed up members here on EGLUG.

Happy Linuxing for us. we hope that we have done our best effort in organizing GNU/Linux events.

this plot shows the users VS nodes.

Amendment to MCAP

I know this sounds trivial on the surface, but it isn't and its quite important.

Murphy's law affecting EGLUG.

I don't know what happened wrong but it seems that they've terminated our account on Wednesday the early morning.

This caused the website to be down for a few hours.

We have a new EGLUG Admin Team

The current team of admins got together just now to decide what to do about the election situation. We have decided the following:

  1. The next time the charter comes up for modification, we need to fix this issue (by saying that we use cron to close the election poll)
  2. There will be ONE person leaving the admin team and TWO persons joining it. I (YoussefAssad) will be leaving and both Conceptor and Ezabi will be joining it. This is effective immediately.

Sorry for the mess; we're a young community. Our charter is also young and it will learn from our mistakes. Thanks everyone for your patience, and thanks to Roberto Ramsis for the idea to make both admins.

Without further ado, our administrative team is:

  • Alaa
  • Conceptor
  • Ezabi
  • Uniball
  • whirlpool

end of 1st period in admins elections
