"In view of redundancy, we not only need alternatives to the
corporate walled gardens, but for "underground/hacker" sites
as well."

SDF gets a lot of participation, but it's hard to get
participation on some of the other systems out there
(grex.org, polarhome.com, cyber1, to name a few.) Maybe
those other systems don't meet enough needs, maybe they're
too obscure, or maybe people don't have time for them. I
don't know why things are the way they are.

There was a small discussion on SDF's bboard recently about
this very thing. If SDF's smj gets hit by a bus (God
forbid), what do all of us do? We love the system, we love
the services, we love *nix.

I hope the pubnix world keeps growing, instead of dwindling.
I hope more servers pop up, and more users decided to use
them. It's a boatload of fun.
