IN KEEPING WITH THE NEW FOCUS FOR OUR STATE QC WEB SITE, ALL REGIONS ARE NOW GETTING THEIR VERY OWN "BLOGS"...SOME HAVE HAD THEM FOR A FEW MONTHS....OUR WEBMISTRESS, CAROL DALY, HAS JUST FINISHED SETTING OURS UP.
This blog, short for "weblog", will be your new "GO TO" place for information about upcoming events in our Region 8. The good part of this will be that any of our Region "officers" will have the capacity of posting information for you. They won't have to wait for Carol to find the time......and if one of us has the misfortune to lose our computer....someone else will be able to post.
Take the time to look the BLOG over and be sure to BOOKMARK THIS BLOG URL.

This should be considered your most important spot on the web for RED HAT information
as it pretains to you..(with the possible exception of Hatquarters).
