In the past few months there had been quite a lot of discussion of SUG National contributing
to the support of sun-spots and/or comp.sys.sun but, by the time I resigned from the Board
of Directors, no conclusion on what action to take had been reached.  The last strawman
on the table was for SUG to be one of several co-contributors to supporting the effort.  There
may have been some action on it since then, and it'll undoubtedly be brought up at the
San Jose conference in December.

SUG could not take it over, since the technical people in the organization are all volunteers
with other full-time jobs (no grad students!).
