Subscription to the Mailing Lists

We maintain several mailing lists for the purpose discussing technical and non-technical subjects related to Linux.

We pride ourselves at the high SNR (Signal-to-Noise Ratio) that our lists exhibit, and despite the name "linux-bangalore", our membership spreads across the country and even across the world.

Feel free to join any or all of these lists!

Before plunging in and shooting off questions, read THE LIST RULES.

Then read this article by Eric Raymond and Rick Moen about asking questions on mailing lists. This is compulsory reading!

• The Non-Technical List

The Announcement List

This list is an announcement-only list, which means that no one except the list moderators can post to it.

Announcements will usually be about upcoming meetings, events and any news that the community should be aware of.

Everyone should be subscribed to this list as one would otherwise miss important announcements regarding both the BLUG and the linux-bangalore lists. We try and avoid crossposting to the other lists.

The Non-Technical List

This list caters to NON-technical discussions about Linux and the Bangalore linux User Group.

Warning: Technical discussions are *not* encouraged here.

Traffic on this list is usually not very high, but can potentially rise just before or after any events or activities we participate in.

This list caters to TECHNICAL discussions about Linux. Currently, this is the only list where you can ask the Bangalore Linux User Group community any technical questions or hold technical discussions related to Linux installation and operations (not programming!).

Warning: Non-technical or programming-related discussions are *not* encouraged here.

Be aware that this can potentially be a very high-volume list - lots of messages and discussions.
