Hello all,
you may have notice that nothing has happened for some time on this
list. This is for two reasons. Firstly I have returned to full time
education and secondly I no longer use Arch Linux (I switched to
another distro). I've been disillusioned with Arch for some time but
the recent furore over package signing was the last straw for me. No
point having a security team if you have no way of verifying a
packages authenticity or if a mirror has been compromise. For more
information have a look at these links:

If anyone wants to take ownership of this group then please let me
know. Otherwise it will be deleted some time in the middle of next
week.
