Linux India - The Great Renaming

The Great Renaming

As a result of this growth the Linux India mailing list was split into three—Linux India Help(LIH), Linux India General (LIG), and Linux India Programmers (LIP)—in November 1999. A web site was created and an IRC server (now defunct irc.linux-india.org) was started. Most of the old-timers now lurk at the ##linux-india channel on irc.freenode.net. The mailing lists are still functional and most of the veterans still subscribe to them, though the number of daily messages have reduced because now almost every major city/state has its own LUG and their own mailing lists to discuss issues. The mailing lists can be subscribed from the sourceforge page linked from www.linux-india.org.
