Distro wars

[Nathan England]

Earlier I offered to give out the source for the awesome forum program I
have..
But I decided what better way to contribute to a great group of linux geeks
than make the site myself and donate my web server to the cause..!

http://the-arcanum.ath.cx/plug


Please check this out, critique and try it out!  There is one place that is
for members only..  Just so you can see. Only members can enter.. This way,
if we wish, we could say things only amongst memebers..  And anyone who
wants to moderate a topic, please let me know and I will adjust accordingly!

And please register after you check it out..  I'm having fun with this as
well!
