9/13    To our friends in the politburo: we respect and support our first
        amendment rights, and we believe the motd should be an open forum.
        Since we unabashedly support free speech, the tone of the motd over
        the past day has come as a painful reminder that with power
        comes responsibility. Since we understand that discussions on the
        motd may become heated, we ask that you show the level of maturity and
        respect that we have come to expect of the students and alumni of the
        finest educational institution in the world. Fiat lux.  --CSUA
        \_ oh get over yourself.  This isn't a first amendment right issue.
           Are you a fucking moron?  Noone took your right to free speach

           Are you a fucking moran?  Noone took your right to free speach
           away.  Noone took away your right of free assembaly.  All they did
           was take down a public message board THEY WERE PROVIDING IN THE
           was take down a pubalic message board THEY WERE PROVIDING IN THE
           FIRST PLACE.  If you don't like it start your own forum. -aspo
           \_ I am grateful to the Politburo,
              He who provides me anonymous opine;
              I hope He never raises his keyboard again in anger,
              I hope He never raises His keyboard again in anger,
              For I am a Sinner, and I have Sinned,
              Thank you Politburo!
        \_ I missed it.  What particular points on the motd during the last
                few days were offensive enough?
           \_ that question presupposes that there actually was a valid reason.

9/26    I remember there was web version of the motd with search function
        (originally due to kchang ?).  The last time I used it it was hosted
        on the csua website but I can't remember its url (onset of dementia?)
        now. Can somebody plz post it, tnx.

9/4     It looks like there are some issues with wallall at the moment. Any
        plans for it getting fixed? I can run wall, but wallall just gives an
        error.
        \_ Asking questions on the motd will not get any attention from
           any undergrad. You should email politburo or perhaps csua. -ausman

4/19    Motd updater thingy seems to be broken, does anyone know why?
        If not, I will take a look later in the day. -ausman
        \_ /etc/motd.public is not getting copied into /etc/motd for a while.

2/6     Um, what happened to http://www.csua.berkeley.edu/~myname ?
        "The requested URL /~myname/ was not found on this server."
        \_ Try emailing root or politburo. I don't think that the
           undergrads use this machine anymore. -ausman
        \_ Ausman is mostly right. LDAP went down due to an expired cert and
           took down most of the rest of our stuff. It's probably a thing with

2/24    What newsreader should I use on soda?
        \_ USENIX? You serious? Everyone switched to RSS.
           \_ I think you mean usenet not usenix.  usenet was generally much
              better than blogs / rss (cf. comp.lang.c, comp.lang.perl,
              the usenet oracle, alt.* with digg, slashdot, etc.)
