[R P Herrold]

I get these from time to time through the mailman-owner alias.  
I respond publicly, after removing personal details of the 
inquirant:

The mailing list has what the meeting presenters (and others) 
send. The website is maintained to show the list details as 
they appear.  I have added a cron process to send the contents 
of the top page into the mailing list, monthly a week before 
the later of the third Saturday or Wednesday [by tradition 
COLUG meets the last Wed or Sat]]

These details usually do not 'gel' until late in the month.  
There is no 'staff' doing this .. it is all volunteers.  There 
is a reminder before that to the people with website 
maintenance access, so we should get useful information with 
any luck

If this causes you pain (the ALL CAPS YELLING), perhaps colug 
is not for you

I'll post the script at my github archive in a bit and 
supplement this email with the details
