Ian,
Thanks for your mail. Linux Online is and has always been www.linux.org
(with the www) as we have given and do give access to a number of
national subdomains (like nl.linux.org, for example). I saw the piece
in the NY Times yesterday morning and the first thing I did was email
our network administrator and tell him that they had linked
http://linux.org. I suppose we've lost some traffic, but what can you
do? Thanks for your concern.

I think the mail system is sometimes disfunctional and this happens, I
think, with too much frequency. I've taken this up with our network
admin on several occasions and this is something that needs to be worked
on. I'll pass that URL on to him and see what he says.
Thanks again and best wishes,
Mike Jordan
