Hello everyone,

First of all, I'd like to say congratulations to the new JaxLUG officers,
who were elected for the 2013-2014 term on Wednesday, July 17:
President - Jess Hires
Vice President - Travis Phillips
Secretary - Michael Potts

We've got some infrastructure changes we've been planning for a while, and
we're finally making the cut-over. For those that haven't been to a meeting
recently, we've got a new Wiki and email list, and abandoning the old
domain (jaxlug.org). If you've been out of the loop and want the details,
shoot them (or me) an email off-list, and we'll have a private conversation
about it.

The new wiki is as http://www.jaxlug.net. We intend for this to be exactly
the same function as the old one, so just a new URL. We're still working on
filling out all the details, so bear with us for a bit, or register and
help populate entries if you'd like to participate.

The mailing list is now Google Groups,
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/jaxlug. For those of you who have
been wanting to get off of the mailing list, just don't sign up for the new
one. We're not automatically adding anyone from the current list, so
everyone who wants to be included will have to join. This is intentional,
we want to clean house and start over.

As for the current wiki and list, we don't anticipate they will go away for
a while, they will just be abandoned. We will continue to edit the current
wiki with new meeting information, for the sake of newcomers, but slowly
start pointing people to the new one instead.

That's about it, let us know if you have any questions!
