[CS-FSLUG] Administrative note: A Christian community is shutting down.

	I think Ed covered this quite well, but our philosophy has never  
been to exclude Christians, but to keep it a closed community  
intended for brothers and sisters in Christ as a place of  
encouragement (otherwise this is merely another Linux list).

	Ed references the idea of associate membership, which we have  
discussed before, and is essentially what we had in the sister  
ministry, Sakamuyo: you simply had to agree not to post attacks on  
the statement of faith's positions, you didn't have to agree with the  
statement.

	Whether we want to do that is something I'm open to hearing more  
views on. Your moderation team will then give it a thorough  
consideration.

	Thanks,
		Tim
