[Old news]

The news for Winter 2004 is listed here.

2004-04-19, sfllaw: perpugilliam has been restored, with two new disks courtesy of MathSoc and MEF. There are now disk quotas for users, with a 250 MB soft quota and a 500 MB hard quota, with a 14-day grace period.

2004-04-16, sfllaw: carbonated-water is back up. It now runs as the backup mail exchange and also serves a a slave LDAP server. What this means is that if perpugilliam goes down, your mail will not be dropped and you'll still be able to login to other machines.

2004-04-16, sfllaw: perpugilliam will be going down for hardware upgrades on 2004-04-16 to 2004-04-19. We thank MathSoc and MEF for their generous support in purchasing this hardware, and apologise for any inconvenience this downtime will cause.

2004-04-07, mbiggs: Pictures of CTRL-D are available in the gallery.

2004-04-02, sfllaw: glucose-fructose is back on-line. It has a new 120 GB hard disk, a new power supply, and an nVidia GeForce FX 5900.

2004-04-01, sfllaw: glucose-fructose will be going down for hardware upgrades on 2004-04-02 for an indeterminate amount of time. We thank MathSoc and MEF for their generous support in purchasing this hardware, and apologise for any inconvenience this downtime will cause.

2004-03-19, sfllaw: Kernighan came to Waterloo, and the Computer Science Club got our books signed by him. Not only that, but we took photographs of him too.

2004-03-16, sfllaw: The books that we purchased have arrived. Now we have two books that can be signed by Kernighan when he comes.

2004-02-05, sfllaw: We voted 15 to 0 to 0 in favour of changing the constitution to follow MathSoc policy. An updated copy of the document is now online.
