Hmmm, didn't realise that I suggested anything about changing the list
in anyway. I quite like it too. What I meant was, that it would be cool
to be able to flick to a tlug web page and see out of the group who was
up to what, why linux, what they do with it, maybe hardware configs,
their pet way of installing apps, backing it up, etc.  Just interesting
bits and pieces like this. I know this is bordering links to members
personal sites, but I think there is a place on the tlug site for
defined/formatted info pieces like this. It might encourage new users
to try something out, or give longer term users a different insight
on someone/something that normally doesn't come up in the list and open
up for example opportunities to learn from handy scripts that other 
people wrote.

Cheers,

Tom.
