mikro.bar  
 
Noch ist Siesta, doch bald öffnet hier die mikro.bar mit ihren vulkanischen Anregungsmitteln ihre Rolläden. In der Mittagspause, nach der Arbeit oder auch sonst lädt sie zu einem kleinen Schwätzchen. Hier wird der neuste Klatsch aus der Nachbarschaft ausgetauscht. Kaffeehausliteraten halten Hof. Man kann ungestört am Tresen sitzen und dem Geplapper der Stadt lauschen. 
 

Demnächst wirst Du hier zwei Mailinglisten abonnieren können:

  • mikro.fon (announcements aus mikro.space)
  • mikro.bar (discussions über Themen aus dem mikro.space)

    Majordomo 
    noun: a person who speaks, makes arrangements, or takes charge for another.  From Italian maggiordomo or Spanish mayordomo, both from Medieval Latin "major domus" - "chief of the house". (Barnhart Concise Dictionary of Etymology)  

    Majordomo is a community-supported Open Source "groupware" project. It has evolved from the initial code base done by Brent Chapman <brent@greatcircle.com>, with further maintenance done by John Rouillard <rouilj@cs.umb.edu>. The current Majordomo maintainer is Chan Wilson <cwilson@sgi.com>.
