[MacTUG] Interest in a "MacOS" Teams Channel?

[Don Duff-McCracken]

About 2 weeks before I posted my email asking about interest in a mac channel on Campus-IT teams, Kevin Paxman had created a channel called Mac Talk -- https://teams.microsoft.com/l/channel/19%3ad0c41a8fa11842888a62167170862597%40thread.skype/Mac%2520talk?groupId=2d80adec-1350-4f81-802c-0cf8cd817d43&tenantId=723a5a87-f39a-4a22-9247-3fc240c01396

Thanks Kevin!
I think it would be great if general purpose nerdy postings were also shared there as well as here.

Subject: Interest in a "MacOS" Teams Channel?

Hey I love mailing lists (perhaps a bit of an exaggeration) but I am living in Teams these days and think that there may be lots of folks in “Campus IT” Team (currently 250+ members) that would not mind the sorts of awesome tips that are sent here (eg Marlon’s note about Recovery Mode). Granted we can just ask folks to join this mailing list but I think something like Teams may be a better way of sharing things. Especially since we are not meeting these days, it might be a good way to keep the “mactug” spirit alive when we are not on campus?

And I would suggest a more generic title like Macintosh OS vs mactug as that will confuse the non-mactug folks.

Just askin’, this is not a hill I am gonna die on, etc etc
