The Ruling Item
| 
Dec 7 17:47 UTC 1991 |
Welcome to "...ing." Here we talk about things we do for pleasure, fun, and
relaxation.
The Rule of ...ing:
Each item header should be of the form: "The <activity>ing Item."
eg:, The Rowing Item, The Bowling Item, The Downhill Skiing Item.
This is so that those who browse can find their item of interest, and because
no other conference has a rule like this.
(This rule is not required for linked items from other conferences.)
Have Fun!

The disk drive where conferences reside is nearly full. To help alleviate
this, I am instituting a cleansing of inactive items in the ING conference.
These items have not had any activity in more than 120 days, and have been
retired. You have an additional 10 days to request that I revive the
items. On or after the 13th I will remove these items from the conference,
and they will be available from my personal archives on a request basis.
-Josh, your loyal (and friendly) fairwitness-

The exercise item is interesting, I had entered something similar in the
sports conference, much more specific. If you keep it, I'll summarize
that one into #8.

removed and archived early.

The /h1b disk drive was 99% full tonight, so I removed and archived
these items, which all have not been active in more than 90 days:
item nresp header
7 22 Picture-taking Item
12 26 How does your garden grow?
13 25 The financial planning item
14 10 The Morotcycling Item
17 9 practicING martial arts
Sorry to give no warning, but I felt it was helpful to return 49K of free
space to /h1b ASAP.

These items have not been updated in more than 90 days, and will be removed
over the weekend unless I receive a request not to. The /h1b disk where
conferences reside is 99% full.
8 20 The Exercising Item
10 23 The Grex Bicycling Item

18 The Flipping Item
20 The Jargon Using Item
as these items have not been updated in more than 90 days.

Due to the severe space crunch on /u (/h1b), I have removed
and archived these items which have had no activity in more than
90 days:
6 136 The Meadmaking, Winemaking, Beermaking, and Drinking Item
22 1 RC models (cars, boats, airplanes, rockets,...)

Conference cleanup time. It's been four months since the last reap.
These items have had no activity in more than three months:
item nresp header
16 13 The BorING Item
19 12 The CanoeING Item
21 14 New products (the shopping item)
23 10 The CafeING Item
24 4 The Stamp CollectING item
26 3 The Sleeping Item
28 9 Cross country
Item 28 is also item 9 in the Nature conference. Deleting it from this
conference will not remove it from Nature.
I plan to make this reap, and archive these inactive items on Friday,
June 4. The items will be frozen until then.

...well, not that I can promise anything, but it seems possible that
activity in item #19 might pick up now that weather's nice...

This shows even better judgement than when I owned the Dark Sun
conference. Imagine picking up Fwing tips after retiring from
the position... There is a lot of janitorial work to be done
in that graveyard, without making archieves.
Re#17: Can we have what?
Some of the old items seemed to have linked interest.
Maybe we had too many of similar content as well?

I have taken over this conference, after Josh got reaped. Josh, if you show
up again you could have it back. In the meantime, it's part of my tiny
empire.
Soon I will have more conferences than Carson! :)
Adminstrata:
Not much will change. If I think of an Ing topic I'll start it and see who
still follows this conf.
