Good News Everyone,<br>
<div class="moz-forward-container"> <br>
I finished the setup of the mailman server to run our own mailing
lists with GNU Mailman so we can lessen our dependence on Skynet-
er, mean Google.<br>
<br>
So the basics are as follows:<br>
the server is <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://lists.chicagolug.org">http://lists.chicagolug.org</a>
go there in a browser and you get this "lovely" GNUi<br>
there are two lists : Announce, and Discuss<br>
Announce: announcemnents for meetings, events, etc<br>
Discuss: everything else, discussions, questions, random gibberish
from a markov bot, even nuclear launch codes if you're so
inclined.<br>
<br>
Consider this the announcement to begin moving over to the new
lists.<br>
<br>
A few final notes:<br>
1) Mailman isn't super well known for secure storage of passwords,
so don't use your bank password or whatever<br>
2) It hasn't been super hammered on so there might be some issues<br>
for that reason I recommend posting to the new/old list for a
while<br>
that way the stragglers aren't immediatly left out, and in the
case that something goes horribly wrong<br>
and a configuration/setup error causes a catastrophic failure
that induces global armageddon,<br>
we can still embrace our Search Engine Overloards (SEO).<br>
<br>
If you have any questions, comments, suggestions, have some kind
of issue to report, or just want to say hi, just let me know<br>

tl;dr: new mailing lists : <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://lists.chicagolug.org">http://lists.chicagolug.org</a>
: discuss + announce : don't use bank password : report issues<br>

Hi Jim <br>
<br>
Any way we can get you on IRC tonight? We're trying to set
up mailgun <br>
on IRC and we're having some trouble (permission on the
account <br>
level). It might be related to our permission we have on our
Rackspace <br>
account. You might have different permissions. <br>
<br>
<br>

Kevin and I were able to connect on IRC last night, and
we're on our way to getting things set up. We'll be in touch
once things are finalized.<br>
