Who wants to be a moderator
This is a call to all Senior Members it is finally time we elected our team of moderators. if you're interested in helping keep the EGLUG website in shape and well organized please nominate yourselfs.
نداء لكل الاعضاء القدامى، وقت انتخاب فريق المراقبين أزف، من يريد أن يشارك فى تنظيم و تنسيق صفحة EGLUG يمكنه ترشيح نفسه.
according to the list of Senior Members we have 28 seniors, and according to the Members Class Assignment Policy moderators should be 20% the number of seniors at election time, this means we need to elect 6 moderators.
وفقا لقائمة الاعضاء القدامى عدد القدامى 28 و وفقا لسياسة تصنيف الأعضاء فريق المراقبين يجب أن يكون 20% من عدد الأعضاء القدامى وقت الانتخابات، اذن علينا انتخاب 6 مراقبين.
as you all know we've announced elections before but failed to deliver (this time is for real and we got the pizza to prove it) so we'll assume the old list of nominees is still valid please add your name if you want to run for moderatorship.

Of Mice and Men
as you all must have noticed we've been having many problems with our hosting provider, we decided to move to a new host and we've been working slowly on the migration and a upgrade to drupal 4.5
however yesterday we found strange changes to file permissions and the site theme was b0rked, we decided enough was enough and started on emergency migration. the idea was to move the hardly ever used eglug.net domain to the new host and work on the migration there then change the eglug.org domain, this way most users would not feel any downtime.
photos section revamp
at last we got around to populating our photos section, with photos from our various events and activities.
most of these photos are from Alaa and Manal's collection.
if you have any other EGLUG photos you want to share please upload them.
cheers, Alaa

The members classification is now properly set and we don't have any moderators but we have 23 senior users who have been very active in the past month and a half, they are:
Historical Wiki Back online
Back in April 2004 I installed an experimental wiki for Linux Egypt, this Wiki enabled us to organize what could be the most successful install fest in history, and it was one of the first attempts to use a Wiki to organize real life events.
This historical wiki is back online at its old address http://linux-egypt.manalaa.net sorry for the delay
فى ابريل ٢٠٠٤ اعددت ويكى تجريبية للينكس مصر، مكنتنا هذه الويكى من تنظيم واحد من انجح مهرجانات اللينكس فى العالم، و على فكرة هذه و احدة من أولى المرات التى يتم فيها تجربة تنظيم احداث باستاخدام ويكى.

start of work on theme

By that time Manal will be done with exams and will focus all her energy on getting a decent default theme for the site.
the CSS layout will be reconsidered, new colors will be used etc.
the whole interface needs a redesign and a discussion about it should start, please use the forum and the wiki area for that.
Start Work on Final Deployment
Sun, 20/06/2004 - 16:00
website
By that time almost all exams will be over, preparation for real launch and start of an advertising campaign should start by then.
all major website issue should be dealt with, anything in [challenges]] that can be resolved directly through drupal should be resolved.
Drupal translation should be over by then and we can focus on our custom interface.
Work on developing and updating the site will never stop, but we should be able to get the site into a good shape by the end of june.
moving to new host
Fri, 04/06/2004 - 01:00
WebSite
The website will be down for a few minutes while we move it from http://eglug.manalaa.net to its realhome @ http://www.eglug.org
space for http://www.manalaa.net was generously provided for free by http://www.aza-group.com
the new home is donated by Alaa, Uniball, WhirlPool and MadFarmAnimalz.
in the future eglug should have an independant space and the cost should be shared by the members.
but we don't need to worry about that at the moment, this space is good for about 6 months.
cheers, Alaa
