Well, what can I say? How about, " It's about time."  We all know 
know that Saga's demise left a bitter taste in everyone's mouth,     
including mine. So after a year and a half we have returned to release 
yet another saga explosion.                                            
   
     Of course in the year and a half of Saga's absence, most of the    
old members have moved on and are either no longer active in the scene 
or they are drawing for ice productions.(grin) I would like to give my 
congradulations to Tetanus for being promoted to the advisory board. 
I'm glad stuff worked out for you bro, and good luck to you. 

So since Saga has been gone for such a long period of time you 
cannot expect it to be the same as it was in the past. We are finding  
new talent everyday, and trying to blend it together with some of our
oldtimers. Now, I am in no way saying the old saga members are not     
welcome back. I would love to have all of you guys back, and try       
and experience the old, and maybe the new.  

I learned alot from the 1st Saga experience. The most important
thing I learned though, is that if you want a stable group you must 
associate yourself with people who are capable of handling group based 
situations. After Betrayer, and Stone Amnesia stepped down after our   
first release, I found it difficult to find two people who could fill  
the void. I found myself switching posistions every month, and now I
realize this theory is just not going to work. So now I have Stone 
Amnesia who has returned from limbo land, along with Creator to help
me keep this group running. Also, We dont plan on having 70 members 
anytime soon either. On a closing note, this group is going to focus   
soley on ansi. Vga, and rip are not wanted in Saga at this time. I'm
not ruling out the idea, but for now we are going to stick to ansi.
             
In just a little over a month we have been able to accomplish so  
much. Z55, our first ansi viewer is almost completed. This is just the 
first design of a more advanced viewer to come. Our appgen has been 
redone, with new ansi graphics and slick routines. Our webpage is 
being constructed as we speak and is way ahead of scheduale. We are 
also half-way done completing our very own ansi editor called virtual
ansi draw. We are doing our best to offer you the features of all the      other ansi drawing programs with of course some new twists. Look for it
in the months to come.   

So I would like to thank everyone for their hardwork and dedication   in the groups first month of existence. Without you the group would have
folded. This month's gimp of the month award goes to Creator. Without
you craig there would be no group. Thankyou for having faith in me, and
giving me a fair chance. 

I want to address something right now so I dont get any questions
later. Saga does not have any distro sites, or outposts for that matter.
The official saga World Headquarters is Neo nacho which will be up via
telnet sometime in June. All of saga's releases will be online and 
available for download. Also sometime in June ( hopefully early ) Saga's
very own Saga.org will be up, and fully functional. We will be able to
supply our members with shell accounts, email, ftp, and Web space. 

If you are interested in joining us, all you have to do is fill out
the appgen, and get it to either Creator, Stone Amnesia or myself and 
we will get back to you as quick as possible. Remember though, that we
are trying to keep ourselves small, so we may initiate a memberfreeze.
That all depends in how things go, so apply regardless.

 Join #saga for all the latest news on upcoming saga projects and 
happenings. I look foward to seeing you there. Until next month i leave
you with this. " You can't kill something that's already dead. "
