Hello, A while back I was looking into Linux/BSD groups in the UK, more specifically in the South. Of course this leads me to the OpenBSD groups page [1].
Taking a look, there is two groups, one in Manchester and one in London, success... until I realised the contact detail is a domain, which is now in parking. This domain was the contact for both the London and Manchester groups. I decided to look into it and found the ukfreebsd mailing list was somehow tied with the former user groups, I only got a single response [2] so I think its safe to say these can be removed from the OpenBSD User Group list, I am not really sure how to request this myself, was hoping someone could help out? Lastly, to dip my toe into the ocean, hypothetically, if there was a meetup/miniconf in London, possibly next year who would be interested in attending? (please offlist me to show your interest) Seeing how much interest there would be in this, seen as UK does not seem to have a single BSD group, meetup or event remaining (if you know of one please let me know!), which in my opinion is quite depressing, so lets fix that :D As a note for the above, there is no residency restrictions (you don't need to be from/live in the UK) to show interest, but bare in mind it will only be small and only a single day if something did miraculously happen, so maybe not show interest if it involves flying across the globe :) As extra extra note, this is in no way confirmed, if someone does get scheduled I will announce it in the future, currently I just need to know who is interested (pointless setting up infra and discussing it if nobody is interested).
