[ILUG] [Fwd: [ILUG-ADMIN] cork stuff (fwd)]

[Donncha O Caoimh]

There's also the marketing/exposure aspect of having sites "around the
country" 
If you can tell a local business man to go to cork.linux.ie and then he
clicks a few links to find kerry.linux.ie and then galway.linux.ie (I'm
talking about the future here..) he'll be impressed IMO.

I certainly won't go posting technical questions to a cork list (with
the limited resources we have). If I want questions answered I'll make
sure Kenn, Colm and the rest of you hear about it!
