great..but....where does it need promoting. We have talked about it on this mailing list yes...but anyone on here who has a problem with linux would just post here or be able to work it out them selves. My question is where should we be promoting this elsewhere so that some of us get some chocolate and where should we be trying to promote this?

that! Little bit of a misunderstanding last time i asked something about promoting FOSS cause it sounded a bit accusationary)

since my last domain expired.

I renewed my .org.uk through godaddy and got a .biz and .info really cheaply with it. The problem as i soon found out with the .info is that you cant send/recieve messages in windows live messenger with a .info URL in them due to some worm that was spamming them out a while ago M$ just filter the messages :( On Thu, 2007-08-23 at 16:10 +0100, Jonothon Nihill wrote: > are they as cheap as godaddy?

I've got one customer who owns 80 .com .biz type domains :-) nice business if you can get it. The best laugh is he'll come on and say something like "I'm looking for goahead.com" I just nip onto 123Reg (We don't buy em from here by the way) and search all the variants on that name that is available then send him a list with say 30 or 40 variants and he generally buys at least 5+ -- Regards Dick Turpin Arch Linux is an independent i686-optimized community distribution for intermediate and advanced Linux users.
