Here at MSU, we are beginning to wind down the quarter and gear up for
Summer. Because of this, Several things will be happening.

Doom will be returning to the land of the living before the end of the
week, and I will be turning the majority of the administrative duties
over to him until mid June.

I will be going offline on these lists around the first of the month.
This is so that I can concentrate on getting my classes in order and
gearing up for moving across the mall to another dorm. In addition, my
computer will be going down very soon, to be resurrected in June as
vorlon.mankato.msus.edu. (luckily, it is being replaced by a new
high-end workstation, but it will be a few weeks before it arrives).

During the summer, I expect to be fairly quiet. I've been hired by the
City of Mankato to be their internet administrator, so I'll be spending
oodles of time there. In addition, I have an independent study on system
administration that vorlon will be used for.

Over the next few months, I expect to take an increasingly less active
role in administration, with Doom fulfilling most of those duties along
with a 3rd administrator we are going to "hire" for ShadowTalk (details
will follow on PLOT-D in a week or so ). This is because someday soon I
will either graduate or become a graduate student. In either case, I doubt
I'll have the time for a role as active as I have been.

As for Vorlon, the system will have 840 megs of storage on it, and I
expect to make a goodly portion of that available for FTP. For sure it
will have various Shadowrun stuff, along with other things (most likely
the archvie site for alt.tv.x-files.creative). Depends on what I can
come up with that isn't duplicated other places.
