Ubuntu-AU Digest

[Michael]

Then may I humbly request people only reply via the list and not to my
personal email. My email is visible, I think it is so please correct
me if I am wrong, if anyone needs to send me an email they can do it
without the forum/mailing list. I don't need multiple copies of the
same thing in my mail box.

Thanks for all your replies.
