The Linux and Unix Users Group at Virginia Tech has two mailing lists, vtluug-announce@listserv.vt.edu and vtluug@listserv.vt.edu. Interested parties are encouraged to subscribe to just vtluug-announce or to both lists, as event announcements are not cross-posted to vtluug unless additional discussion is necessary. For instructions on how to subscribe or unsubscribe to these or any campus mailing lists, refer to the Listserv article.

vtluug-announce

vtluug-announce@listserv.vt.edu is the low-traffic announcement list that only officers can post to. It was created in the spring of 2009 to allow separation of more general chatter from vital event information. Only user group event announcements and critical operating functions are sent out over this list.

vtluug

The main VTLUUG mailing list is vtluug@listserv.vt.edu. Anyone can post to this list, provided they first subscribe to the list. This list is archived online. Only attachments of type application/pgp-signature are allowed. Pretty much any traffic is allowed on this list. Specifically, users are encouraged to post general Linux and Free Software-related questions and experiences, job postings, and non-LUUG event announcements that may be of interest to its membership. This list occasionally can have moderate traffic.
