I seldom go there now too, but occasionally I will still pop in to see whether
Jawaid is there and get more information from him about Switch It and Second
Sight. Appearantly one of the most important reason for joining #appleiigs
has lost.

He did not list my name too. Perhaps he has forgotten me or maybe I am seldom
there so it is not worth listing. And weird thing is Ian put my name in one
of his article together with Jawaid...

Well said. :) I don't know why that channel is still called #appleiigs while
there is basically nothing about Apple IIGS in there.

How about starting some new one like #appleii? #secondsight? #gno?
