[CS-FSLUG] LIST ADMIN: Changes to List

[Timothy R. Butler]

Dear List Members,
	It struck me the other day that we as Christians are told to be the 
light of the world. How can we do so while we are being odd balls 
compared to the 90 something percent of the world that uses Windows? 
Not only do we separate ourselves in this way, this also means we spend 
less time at the local computer shops getting Windows repaired and 
upgrades installed, and therefore, less time when we could be being 
"salty." Moreover, how can almost the entirety of all computer users be 
wrong about what OS people should use?

	Given this, I've decided to change the purpose and name of this list. 
Henceforth, it will be called CNS-NFSWUG (Christian Non-Source-Non Free 
Software/Windows Users Group) and all members must use a variant of 
Outlook, Hotmail/MSN or AOL to send messages to the list. The CS 
website will also start blocking all browsers other than Internet 
Explorer from viewing the site. I know this transition will be 
difficult, but it will be worthwhile.

	FOSS-Cafe and OfB-Talk mailing lists will henceforth be merged 
together as the Windows Oriented Roundtable Messaging Talk list 
(WORM-Talk). These lists will concentrate on helping people move off of 
evil non-conforming OSes.

	Along side this, I am pleased to announce Closed for Business (CfB), 
which will be the successor to Open for Business. CfB will carry useful 
news for those seeking to migrate to Windows from lesser operating 
systems. Likewise, our ServerForest hosting services will be migrating 
from Red Hat to Windows Server System 2003, which will allow CfB to run 
on top of ASP.net.

	I'm ordering MSN Broadband this afternoon and will shortly be casting 
out GNU/Linux and Mac OS X in favor of Windows XP SP 2 on my systems. 
To insure that I don't lead anyone else into the heinous temptation to 
run a non-Windows system, I will be personally recycling all of my 
non-Windows hardware and software so that I can rest soundly knowing no 
one else will be lead down the wide path to computer destruction.

	Again, thank-you for your understanding during this transition.

	-Tim
