I have not heard of dev-sig meeting in a long time. Looking at the archives,<br>
the last message sent to this list (before this one) was in 2012.<br>
<a href="http://lists.lilug.org/pipermail/lilug-dev-sig-lilug.org/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://lists.lilug.org/<wbr>pipermail/lilug-dev-sig-lilug.<wbr>org/</a><br>
<br>
Being that the state of and status things with Lilug aren't clear, I'll point<br>
out what I know.<br>
<br>
--------------<br>
<br>
SI-SIG still meets once a month at Panera at the Walt Whitman Mall.<br>
Lilug still meets once a month in Plainvew. The directions on the Directions<br>
page on how to get there are current.<br>
<br>
The Lilug.org front page still lists an IRC meeting once/month, and are<br>
automated to show current dates, but those IRC meetings have not happened in<br>
about five years. None of the officers have joined the channel in a long, long<br>
time. Occasionally someone new still shows up in the IRC channel looking to talk<br>
to Lilug officers for the IRC meeting, whereby someone has to explain this<br>
situation to them. :-( I really wish the advertisement of the IRC meeting were<br>
removed from the website.<br>
<br>
Something happened to the Lilug main mailing list archives in 2015, and now all<br>
the archives from 1998-March 2015 are missing.<br>
<br>
The listings for who the Treasurer and the Secretary in the "About" page on the<br>
Lilug website are currently wrong.<br>
<br>
The Lilug Planning mailing list now seems to only get spam.<br>
<br>
The Meeting Minutes for 2015-2017 have only 5 out of 36 entries filled in. The<br>
Secretary that was responsible for making those entries left the position in<br>
November 2017.<br>
<br>
When I looked at the Lilug Jobs page a month ago, there were a bunch of listings<br>
that looked like spam. Today when I look the Jobs link appears to be broken. DNS<br>
lookups for <a href="http://jobs.lilug.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">jobs.lilug.org</a> fail.<br>
<br>
All the "Archived Archives" links in the Mailing Lists page seem to all go to<br>
missing wiki pages.<br>
<br>
The link to the Mailing List guidelines goes to a missing wiki page.<br>
<br>
At the November 2017 meeting the President suggested opening up the meetings to<br>
"open source anything" topics, e.g. "open source genetics". This would seem to<br>
conflict with Article II of the Lilug Bi-Laws, which state that the purpose for<br>
Lilug is to promote the use of free open source software.<br>
