Am I the only LugNut who doesn't really know what a "cluster" is?

Could someone enlighten me, please?

What news?

I am willing and able to build a small KCLUG cluster
website, allowing the discussion to be focused. We
had three proposals for location, and some hub hardware
has been donated, as well as it sounds like up to
twenty P100-era PCs and network cards. It sounds
like it will happen.

Would a small site running an online discussion
forum (no ads, very simple layout) be useful, or should
we keep the project entirely within the KCLUG mailing
list and meetings? Both formats have their merits.
