About this site
The domain name MontanaLinux.org has been owned by Scott Dowdle for several years now. It was originally purchased as a site to collect Linux news for the Linux community in Montana... which at the time was primarily the Yellowstone Valley Linux Users Group... which has since been renamed to BillingsLUG.
MontanaLinux.org became an extension of Scott's Linux Advocate column from Silicon Times Report online magazine. It went from some pretty poor, custom PHP scripting to PHPNuke. Then it switched to PostNuke for a while... and finally it switched to Drupal. Whenever Drupal 7 is GA, it'll probably switch to that.
Warren Sanders is a long-time friend to Scott and Warren took over the BillingsLUG after Scott moved to Bozeman. Warren is very active in the Montana Linux scene but has given up leadership of the BillingsLUG over to some new blood.
