<p><strong>Notes:</strong><br>
1. CalLUG revived,
but then lasted only through 2007: A/o 2008, their machine still
<a href="http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~linux/">exists</a>, but
seems to have been wiped. A new group, Cocoaheads, has taken the place of
Bay Area NeXT Group. Smaug has revived, and
is holding weekly(!) meetings -- and Stanford University LUG (SULUG) has
resumed monthly meetings. SlugLUG was revived by an enterprising
student, but then went dormant again, and EBLUG recovered from accidental
domain expiration and has recently sidestepped recurring security compromise
by moving most of its presence to ning.com. BayPIGgies ceased alternating
meeting sites, settling on
Mountain View. There's a new LUG in San Francisco, named SF-LUG.
SJSU LUG evaporated in 2007 when its domain expired and was grabbed
by a squatter.
<p>2. SCLUG's wiki site at linus.got.net was wiped out by comment spam
in 2005, and the
<a href="http://sphinx.got.net/mailman/listinfo/sclug">mailing list</a>
finally vanished in 2006. Exit SCLUG.
<p>3. Internet Developer Group was said to be merely dormant (because
its founder suffered burnout), but the announcement mailing list is
defunct, though the <a href="http://www.inetdevgrp.org/">Web site</a>
persists.
<a href="http://www.linuxmovies.org/">Linux Movies Group</a> has gone
dormant in the S.F. region, as has
<a href="http://www.extasia.org/sig-beer-west/">sig-beer-west</a>.
<p>4. Starship Augusta Ada has changed meeting days from 4th Saturdays
to 3rd Sundays.
<p>5. FreeBSD group SVBUG remains dormant: Leader Jesse Monroy hasn't
called new meetings.
On the other hand, BAFUG is being revived, and its mailing
lists are functioning (although their Web archives are broken). You'll
need to exempt domain "bafug.org" from SMTP callback checks, if you do
them.
<p>6. Every effort is made to keep these listings accurate. If they aren't,
please <a href="mailto:%20bale@linuxmafia.com%20"> let BALE know</a>, so
we can fix the problem. (Please include the word "BALE" in your subject
header.)
