PLEASE NOTE: The general convention is that for administrivia about a list (like getting added or deleted, asking about archive files, etc.) you write to list-REQUEST@host (e.g., 386USERS-REQUEST@UDEL.EDU). This gets you to the Coordinator, rather than to the membership of the entire mailing list. Please look carefully at the entry for each list you are interested in, to see if a -REQUEST address has been provided. I try to keep entries current. However, since information is provided by the list maintainers, some entries may be out of date. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 386USERS@UDEL.EDU A moderated list for Intel 80386 topics, including hardware and software questions, reviews, rumors, etc. Open to owners, users, prospective users, and the merely curious.

Current readership consists mainly of computer scientists and engineers with interest in biomedical and clinical research, and of physicians with interest in medical informatics. AI in Medicine is a broad subject area which encompasses almost all research areas in artificial intelligence. For the purposes of this mailing list, AI in Medicine may be defined as "computed-based medical decision support" (or "computer-assisted medical decision making"). This definition may be expanded to include AI-based approaches to computer-assisted medical instruction. According to this definition, topics such as billing systems and hospital/medical office information retrieval systems clearly remain outside the scope of this forum. There are some borderline topics which cannot readily be classified under AI in Medicine, yet have clear connections to both artificial intelligence and medical practice. Processing and interpretation of medical images and signals are among those subject areas, and the current readership of this list contains a substantial number of researchers working in these fields. These borderline subject areas will remain within the scope of the list, as long as the focus lies on the artificial intelligence aspects, and not the detailed engineering principles. Who may join: any individual or organization with internet or bitnet mailing addresses may join.

Any activity by AJBS-L subscribers which would normally be conducted between business and economics faculty, students, and business practictioners is allowed and encouraged, and definitely not restricted in any manner. The faculty and students of colleges of business at the university level are expected and required to closely interact and assist the business community. Therefore, as AJBS-L editor and as a full-time business faculty member, I welcome and encourage full AJBS-L participation from the business community. B. Present Activities of AJBS-L 1. E-mail Once a user subscribes to AJBS-L, (s)he may send mail to the list for distribution to all its members. All members of the mailing list will receive a copy of each piece of mail sent to the list. All of the mail that is received and redistributed by the list is cataloged and stored in a database that can be searched or retrieved by individuals with access to AJBS-L. In order to prevent "rapid-fire" random e-mail transmissions, all messages are relayed to the AJBS-L editor for a weekly (normally every Monday) batch mail release. In addition, each subscriber may disable the automatic AJBS-L e-mail transmission to their site and download logfiles of each month's traffic. 2. AJBS-L Filelist Datafiles are available for downloading. The objective is to develop a clearinghouse of information on the business and economic systems of Eastern European countries. To receive the current listing of files, send the following to the LISTSERV (not to AJBS-L), with the following: GET AJBS-L FILELIST a) File Downloads GET filename filetype AJBS-L For example, GET AJBS-L INDEX b) File subscriptions Specialized information or information which is too large for normal e-mail is placed in AJBS-L datafiles for downloading by subscribers. Details of the current datafiles are found in AJBS-L INDEX. You may "subscribe" to a datafile in one of two ways: 1) automatic downloading of the entire file to your address with each update; 2) automatic notification that the file has been updated. You may terminate this file subscription upon demand. Send the following to the LISTSERV (not to AJBS-L) at PUCC: 1) To download one file, one time, without subscribing: GET filename filetype AJBS-L Example, GET AJBS-L INDEX 2) To receive automatic file downloads (AFD=automatic file distribution) upon file updates: AFD ADD filename filetype Example: AFD ADD AJBS-L INDEX 3) To cancel automatic file downloads: AFD DEL filename filetype 4) To receive automatic file update information (FUI): FUI ADD filename filetype 5) To cancel automatic file update information: FUI DEL filename filetype 6) To receive a list of files to which you are subscribed: AFD LIST or FUI LIST 4.

Coordinator: David G. Macneil APOGEES%FRAIX11.BITNET@VM1.NODAK.EDU Mailing list for the study of critical and strategic information management. The objective is to identify information of long-term value to an organization and to develop realistic methodologies and policies of management (data bases, ethics policy, education, supervisory systems...). In APOGEES, we share the creation of business information supervising systems. We discuss methodologies suitable to the management and development of technological information through supervisory divisions. People from all fields of sciences, management, information technology, computer science, and so on, are welcome including managers who are concerned with several critical items when making their business decisions. BitNet users can subscribe by sending an application note to BAUMARD@FRAIX11 or by sending mail to LISTSERV@FRMOP11 with the body/text of the message: SUB APOGEES your_full_name where "your_full_name" is your real name, not your login Id.

ARACHNET@acadvm1.uottawa.CA [Last Updated 12-October-1991] A Loose Association of Electronic Discussion Groups and Electronic Journals of Interest to Scholars. There are more than 600 discussion groups, newsletters, digests and electronic journals devoted to topics of scholarly interest. As more scholars come on-line, the size of these groups, the diversity of material they have to offer, and their total number are all bound to increase. These groups could benefit from a loose confederation that would allow them to share resources easily without imposing any kind of restrictions on their manner of operation. Arachnet is such a confederation. Arachnet is a ListServ list, Arachnet@Uottawa.BITNET or ARACHNET@ACADVM1. Uottawa.CA if you are on the Internet. All editors of discussion groups, newsletters, digests and electronic journals are invited to be members. On its file-server, Arachnet will contain a current list of its member groups, descriptions of each group, and lists of files they hold. As well as the current Directory of E-mail Based Conferences and Electronic Journals. Arachnet's fileserver will also hold various information files pertaining to the creation of e-serials. The conversational component will be a means by which editors of new groups can receive help from their colleagues on questions of editorial policy and the social/ethical aspects of electronic conferencing. Arachnet is not intended to replace Lstown-L@INDYCMS which is a discussion list for listowners to discuss technical aspects of Listserv based discussion group management. Arachnet will be an unedited list but will accept postings only from Arachnet subscribers.

Moderator: GROSS@BCVMS.BITNET ARPANET-BBOARDS@MC.LCS.MIT.EDU ARPANET-BBOARDS@LCS.MIT.EDU Redistribution address for all known BBoards on the ARPANET. The guidelines for postings are somewhat loose. The ostensible purpose of the list is to distribute: (a) emergency notices ("Southern California just slid into the Pacific, machines at ISI and UCSD will be down for a few days"), and (b) notices of "academic interest", such as seminar and symposium announcements. Advertisements and for-profit notices are not appropriate (the DoD would get upset, among other considerations). A touchy borderline case is job offerings. The practice has been to accept postings from universities (the research community) and the research oriented military installations (the people paying for our hardware) but to refuse postings from private companies. The (shaky) rationale behind this is that university and military job offerings are "research opportunities" as opposed to for-profit advertisements (ie, joining the army or a university is not the way to get rich). Anyone is welcome to redistribute Arpanet-BBoards; it takes some of the (considerable) load off of MC's mailer. But please don't do it without sending a message to the -Request address first. There are Archive copies of every message ever sent to the list but no guarantee is made that they will be online or available at any particular time. The current archive file, such as it is, can be found as "COMAIL;BBOARD ARCHIV" on MC.LCS.MIT.EDU.

Potential members include artists, art-administrators, writers, theorists, students, teachers. The aim of the list is to encourage contributions from all who have dipped a toe into these waters and found them congenial, but who know not where to turn next. The idea is that alliances will be formed, projects launched, funding gained, technology utilised, ideas launched and wild speculation indulged in. I hope that art projects will be instigated via this list. It is within my desire for the list that it evolves. The list encompasses: *Projects *New work *Events *Collaborations *Funding *Technology *Shows *Jobs *Conferences *Proposals *Organisations *Information *Publications *Education *Wild speculation ARTNET provides a forum for the discussion of ART that is concerned with: network; installation; project; communication; temporary; ad-hoc; transient; mobile; time-based; formless; de- centred. I call this PERIPATETIC art. I define peripatetic art thus: The art or action of creative endeavour with lack of fixed base. There is no fixed centre which claims to have 'the knowledge'. All projects involve some aspect of lack of enclosure; the promotion of action without centre. Peripatetic art tends towards the transient, the time based, the mobile. Peripatetology is as much about receiving the action, the project, as it is about initiating it. I am concerned with improving communication amongst those working in these and related areas. By its nature this kind of work often does not lend itself to easy documentation or definition. The concept mooted here, and encapsulated in the term 'peripatetic', has by its very nature a changeable agenda. I hope that in action we will create new ways of working alongside some very old human desires.

This list provides a general magazine type information exchange and discussion area. As in any specialist magazine there will be much of interest to subscribers and also some irrelevance. Although not in any way subscription/geographically limited, the focus of the list is intended to be the UK art community. It is hoped that the list will stimulate the use of network resources. The idea is that alliances will be formed; projects launched; funding gained; technology utilised; ideas launched and wild speculation indulged in. ART-SUPPORT is about ART, not technology.

Topics for the list can range from "what is good" to "what happens after death" to "is there a god". This list is designed to be open to members of ALL religious and political faiths or non-faiths; we do not discriminate based on religion, race, gender, sexual preference, handicap, et cetera. The list is open for all discussion pertaining to ideological, religious, moral, and ethical topics. There are only four general rules: 1. Treat everyone's faith as if it were as sacred as your own. In fact, to be safe, treat their faiths BETTER than your own. 2. Excessively rude, obnoxious, or abusive posting will not be tolerated. 3. Personal attacks will NOT be tolerated. Take your fights to e-mail where they belong, NOT in public. 4. Due to the varied nature of computer systems, please take into account that not everyone has the time or disk space to read several thousand lines of BELIEF-L mail per day. If you have a large amount of material to send to the list, please do one or more of the following: [a] Announce that you have something you'd like to discuss, and solicit opinions from from the list as to whether it would be o.k. to bring it up. [b] Post in reasonably-sized "chunks" -- by my definition, in the range of 200 lines, once or twice a day at the most. [c] If you will be reposting or crossposting material from another source, announce that you have it, and offer to send copies to interested parties. The first "rule" is really a guideline. Proselytizing is OK, so long as you remember that you get what you dish out. With respect to the second rule, please remember that you are a professional, and professionals don't get abusive to others. If you violate the other rules, in the opinion of the List Owners, more than twice, you will be asked to stop. If you continue to be abusive, you will be removed from the list. By signing on to this list, you acknowledge your right to critically respond to other's ideologies; you also acknowledge that your own ideologies can be critically responded to. You agree to abide by the rules of the list, insofar as they are listed above, and may be added to in the future as need be. You acknowledge the right of the list owners to have you removed from the list if you fail to abide by the rules. Further, you agree that this list and all material herein is PRIVATE PROPERTY, and will not engage in cross-list or cross-person posting without prior permission, which will only be obtained publicly on the list.

The three lists, which replace the former BIRD_RBA@ARIZVM1, provide a clearing-house for transcribed birding hotlines for three major areas of the country--East, West, and Central. The new lists are BIRDEAST, BIRDCNTR, and BIRDWEST. Current subscribers to BIRD_RBA will be automatically shifted to all three of the new lists. New subscribers must choose which of the three regional lists best answers their needs. Of course, new subscribers may still subscribe to all three lists for full coverage. Subscribers are invited to submit transcripts from their area of the country if it is not already represented. A current list of hotlines available from the National Birding Hotline Cooperative is appended. Contributions to the lists are always welcome and should be sent in MAIL format to BIRDEAST, or BIRDWEST, or BIRDCNTR, all at ARIZVM1. Please note that these are not intended to be general chat lists. Contributions should either be transcripts of birding hotlines or, if a local hotline recording is not available to you, concise statements of species seen and the location of the sighting, along with any relevant information such as 'out of range,' 'out of normal time frame,' etc. If you are confused about which of the three lists to send your material to, contact either of the list owners first. Their Bitnet/Internet addresses are listed below. You may subscribe to The National Birding Hotline Cooperative by sending an interactive SUBSCRIBE command or by including a SUBSCRIBE command as the ONLY line of a MAIL message to LISTSERV@ARIZVM1, as follows: Interactive example from CMS: TELL LISTSERV AT ARIZVM1 SUB BIRDEAST or BIRDCNTR or BIRDWEST MAIL example: SUB BIRDEAST or BIRDCNTR or BIRDWEST To cancel your subscription, issue the SIGNOFF command to LISTSERV@ARIZVM1: SIGNOFF BIRDEAST or BIRDCNTR or BIRDWEST Do NOT send SIGNOFF or other LISTSERV commands to BIRDEAST, BIRDCNTR, or BIRDWEST. If you are on the Internet network, subscription messages should be sent to LISTSERV@ARIZVM1.BITNET and hotline transcripts should be mailed to BIRDEAST@ARIZVM1.BITNET (or CNTR or WEST, as the case may be).

It is hoped that the group will function as an open forum for scholarly discussion of topics relating to the history, literature and languages, fine arts, philosophy, and institutions of all forms of Buddhism. It may also serve as a forum for discussion of issues connected to the teaching of Buddhist studies at the university level, and as a place for posting notices of employment opportunities. The primary purpose of this list is to provide a forum for serious academic discussion. It is open to all persons inside and outside the academic context who wish to engage in substantial discussion of topics relating to Buddhism and Buddhist studies. BUDDHA-L is not to be used for proselytizing for or against Buddhism in general, any particular form of Buddhism, or any other religion or philosophy, nor is it to be used as a forum for making unsubstantiable confessions of personal conviction. The discussion on the list is to be moderated, not in order to suppress or censor controversies on any topic, but rather to limit irrelevant discussions and idle chatter, and to redirect or return messages sent to the list by accident. Content or style will never be altered by the moderator, whose only responsibility will be to forward all appropriate postings to the list.

Anecdotal evidence, media reports, and some formal studies suggest that computer users are at risk from misuse and overuse of computers. Eyestrain, headache, carpal tunnel syndrome, and other apparently computer-related maladies are increasing. And, it would appear that colleges, universities, and other institutions have been slow to respond with education, training, office and lab design, furniture purchasing, and other programs that could make computing more healthful -- and productive. We welcome questions and answers; article and book reviews; hardware, software, and furniture evaluations; approaches to influencing institutional policy; speculation; and humor. Medical, legal, technical, financial, aesthetic, and administrative viewpoints are encouraged. We hope that this forum will be of interest to end users, computing managers, epidemiologists, and policymakers. Subscribers to this list may also wish to participate in EDUCOM's Project EASI: Equal Access to Software for Instruction, "dedicated to assisting higher education in developing computer support services for people with disabilities." EASI provides information and guidance on campus applications of adaptive computer technology. For information on EASI, contact Carmela Castorina, CSMICLC@UCLAMVS.BITNET. In general, C+Health will focus on individual and institutional measures for "keeping healthy people healthy" as well as remedies for restoring temporarily disabled people to health. We suggest that computing issues related to those with permanent disabilities be referred to our dedicated colleagues at EASI. Although this distinction will not always be "easy," one goal of C+Health is to minimize the number of casualties in our increasingly computer-intensive campuses, offices, and homes. This list will not be moderated, at least initially, so we encourage contributors to be succinct, to include relevant parts of messages to which they are responding, and to append their names, titles, and institutions to contributions. New users are welcome to send to the list a brief statement of their experiences and interests in this topic. Unless stated otherwise, it will be assumed that contributions represent individual opinion rather than institutional policy.

UUENCODED GB/Big5 are used for posting. For detailed conventions used for the list and technical info of Chinese computing, please FTP the CHPOEM-L Information File from ahkcus.org -192.55.187.25- in the directory ./gb/poem. Additional Information 2. About messages posted in Chinese. A number of coding schemes have been developed for using Chinese on computers. The two most common are GuoBiao (developed in mainland China) and Big5 (developed in Taiwan). Complicating matters further, there are different varieties of Big5 codes, the most common being ET Big5 (the code used by the Taiwanese program ETen, pronounced Yi3tian1) and HKU Big5 (the code used for programs developed at Hong Kong University). There is a preference for GuoBiao (often abbreviated to GB) among CHPOEM-L subscribers, though files using other codes are welcome. Utilities are available for converting between GuoBiao and Big5, and between ET Big5 and HKU Big5; see below. Chinese files sent to the list should be uuencoded. The uuencode command is included on most Unix-based systems; type "man uuencode" for instructions on its use, or ask your system administrator. PC versions of uuencode and uudecode are available via anonymous ftp from ahkcus.org [192.55.187.25] as uuduue20.zip in the src/pc directory. (Ask your system administrator for help using FTP.) For information about uuencode and the Mac, see the Mac help file mentioned below. Note: Sometimes you may get an error message when uudecoding a file, indicating some kind of "short file" problem; garbage may then show up at the end of the decoded file. This is be- cause the mail system removes blank spaces from otherwise blank lines. When you uuencode a file, the next to last line is often just one blank space, which then disappears when you mail the file. When you try to uudecode the file, uudecode detects the missing space and announces the "short file" error. There are two ways to avoid this problem: (1) Before mailing a uuencoded file, replace all spaces with an open-single-quote (`) mark. (As far as uudecode is concerned, the ` mark and space are exactly equivalent.) If you receive a uuencoded file in the mail, but the sender neglected this step, simply type the ` mark in on the blank line above the "end" line, then uudecode the file. (2) Ask your system administrator to install a more recent version of uuencode that uses ` instead of space. Source code for this is available via anonymous ftp from ahkcus.org in the src/unix directory. To read a file written in Chinese, you will need a program that can interpret the Chinese code used in that file. Different programs are available for different hardware platforms. PC users can get information about GuoBiao editors by sending email to LISTSERV@UGA.BITNET with the message GET PC HELP. HKU Big5 files can be viewed with shownews.exe or readnews.exe, available via anonymous ftp at ahkcus.org [192.55.187.25] in the src/pc/hku directory. (You will also need the chinese.16 font file from the same directory.) ET Big5 files must be read with the ETen operating system, which is commercial software selling for about US$80. However there is a utility, et2hku, to convert ET Big5 files to HKU Big5 files, which can then be read with shownews. (See below.) Mac users can get information about both GuoBiao and Big5 software by sending email to LISTSERV@UGA.BITNET with the message GET MAC HELP. X Windows users can use either cxterm or xhzview for both GuoBiao or Big5 files. For information about cxterm, send email to LISTSERV@UGA.BITNET with the message GET CXTERM HELP. For infor- mation about xhzview, send email to LISTSERV@UGA.BITNET with the message GET XHZVIEW HELP. Note: Users may run into problems because different systems indicate line endings differently. Unix-based systems use linefeed (ASCII 10, ^J) to end a line, the Mac uses carriage return (ASCII 13, ^M), and PC systems use carriage-return/linefeed. This usually can be solved by using an editor or automatically fixed though transferring process. If NOT, you can use the following methods: + MAC to UNIX convertion: At unix prompt type, tr '\015' '\012' < Mac_file > Unix_file + MSDOS to UNIX conversion: FTP folding.c from ahkcus.org:./src/unix. Folding removes carriage-returns and, if desired, adds linefeeds according to a specified linewidth. Simply compile the source code and excute it for `how to use' message. [ ...... this section is not complete ] 3. Conversion Utilities. To convert between GuoBiao and Big5 (et or hku) files, use hc ("Hanzi Converter"), available via anonymous ftp from ahkcus.org [192.55.187.25] in the src/unix directory. (There is another conversion utility available called b2g, but it seems to miss a large number of characters.) Since Big5 covers about 5,000 more characters than GuoBiao, it's likely there will be a few missing characters in Big5 to GuoBiao conversions. To convert between ET Big5 and HKU Big5, use et2hku, available via anonymous ftp from cs.purdue.edu [128.10.2.1] in the pub/ygz/utils directory. 4. File naming conventions. The names of files containing poems should indicate the poet and, if a non-GuoBiao Chinese file, the coding standard used (et, hku, etc.). Since one goal of the list is to assemble a database of Chinese poems, there is a preference for using one uuencoded file per poem, and to number a poet's poems sequentially as they are posted to the list. For example, the first person to post a poem by Li Bai might name the file libai.001 (or, if an ET Big5 file, libai.001.et). The next person would call his or her file libai.002, and so forth. Of course latecomers or those with short memories will not know how many poems by a given poet have already been posted to the list. In that case, add your name or id after the poet's name and start your own numbering system. For example, if your computer id were nw1, and you wanted to post a Li Bai poem but didn't know the number of the last Li Bai poem posted, you should name yours libai_nw1.001. Indexes of poems previously sent to the list will be distributed periodically. If you want to post a large number of files at once (say, more than three or four poems), we suggest you use the tar file archiving program. Unix users can get instructions for tar by typing "man tar" at their system prompt, or by consulting their system administrators. There is a PC version of tar available via anonymous ftp at procyon.cis.ksu.edu [129.130.10.80] in the pub/PC/UnixLike directory. Try to use as reliable a source as possible when typing poems, and identify it in your message. As a general rule, try to use the following format: line 1: AUTHOR TITLE ; (Poet's name, a space, then title of poem) line 2: ; (Leave a blank line before starting text) line 3: ...text... ; (Text of poem) ... .... Add your name and/or email id at the end, if you wish. 5. Still confused? If you have any questions, can't get software working, or whatever, try sending mail to the list. Someone is likely to know the answer, or at least offer sympathy.

CLASS-L provides facilities to: - Enable researchers to mail messages automatically to all subscribers - Provide researchers with announcements, newsletters, and information about classification and clustering. The Coordinators are inviting officials of professional classification societies to own (and to be responsible for) files which would be maintained by the SBCCVM file server. Any CLASS-L subscriber can retrieve these files by issuing appropriate LISTSERV commands. Alternatively, a CLASS-L subscriber can arrange to receive automatically copies (or announcements) of files updated by particular societies. We hope officials of the Member Societies of the International Federation of Classification Societies will eventually participate in this project as file owners. Officials from other societies (e.g. Psychometric Society, Willi Hennig Society, International Association of Pattern Recognition Societies) may also be interested in participating.

The list will also serve as a forum for discussion of the multidisciplinary aspects of conservation biology, the interaction of science and society in conservation policy and action, and the relationship between maintaining biodiversity and sustainable development. Subscription is currently open and unmoderated. When you subscribe, you will get a message that confirms your subscription, explains how to use the listserver, to retrieve and index and obtain archived materials, how to unsubscribe from the list, how to stop your mail when you go on vacation, how to hide your subscription if you wish confidentiality, how to get a list of open subscribers, and how to obtain a list of other commands.

The explicit purpose of CONSIM-L is to provide a platform for discussion of recently published games, but discussion can range over the general topics of conflict simulation design, military history, tactics and strategy, game collecting, convention and club announcements, or any other topic related to conflict simulation games. As is the case on all unmoderated lists, the discussion and topics are only limited by the participation and interest of its subscribers. Subscribers are welcome to take an active role by posting and/or an inactive role by monitoring the list. Although not necessary for participation, it shall be assumed that all subscribers are basically familiar with board wargames. To subscribe to CONSIM-L, please send mail or file to LISTSERV@UALTAVM or listserv@vm.ucs.ualberta.ca and place in the body of the text the line SUB CONSIM-L . This list does not support any archive functions. Contents on LISTSERV@Uottawa (BITNET) or LISTSERV@Acadvm1.Uottawa.Ca (Internet) This list will simply announce new and recent publications of relevance to Religious Studies and related disciplines. It will post the table of contents, prices, and when available, abstracts of both books and journals. These postings will be logged in notebooks for searching and, in future, made available as a TELNET accessable and searchable database. The Wilfrid Laurier University Press is the first to make this information available to the CONTENTS list. I hope to soon convince the AAR and SBL presses to join in asap. The rest should come running soon enough. The list will not be conversational. Frequency of postings will depend on the number of cooperating publishers. If the load gets heavy postings will be grouped together accounding to some extremely esoteric classification system. There is the possibility that down the road, CONTENTS will also serve to distribute reviews from IOUDAIOS, RELIGION and other lists, if such a service is deemed useful.

The objective of the list is to provide a facility akin to a noticeboard, on which messages can be seen by all members of the list. Currently the list is running on a computer at the Rutherford Laboratory of SERC in the UK, although the list is managed by Bob Cottis at the Corrosion and Protection Centre, UMIST. Joining the List There are two addresses associated with the list. The first of these is a general address for all lists running on the computer in question, and is used for commands, such as requests to join or leave the list. From the JANET network in the UK this address is LISTRAL UK.AC.RL.IB From outside the UK the components of the site address are reversed to give LISTRAL IB.RL.AC.UK Commands consist of electronic mail messages containing one or more lines of instructions for the 'Listserver' program which manages the lists. Some of the common commands are: SUBscribe CORROS-L ;join CORROS-L UNSUBscribe CORROS-L ;leave CORROS-L HELP ;get a brief list of commands In the above description only the upper case letters need to be typed, and means your name in the form in you wish to be known to the list (the Listserver works out your username and address for itself from the Return Address in your message). The semicolon and the subsequent phrase are a descrition of the command, and should not be typed. Thus to join the Corrosion Interest List Jane Smith would send the message SUB CORROS-L Jane Smith to LISTRAL. Once you have subscribed to CORROS-L you will automatically be sent all correspondence which is sent to the list. You can send your own messages for the list to CORROS-L UK.AC.RL.IB (or CORROS-L IB.RL.AC.UK from outside the UK) (you can actually do this without subscribing to the list, but you won't be able to see any replies!), or in many mail systems you can simply Reply to messages from the list. The list is unmoderated (i.e. everything that is sent to the list is distributed automatically without any editorial control), please use it responsibly. In particular do not use it for excessively commercial purposes, and do not send messages which are liable to offend. You should assume that messages which are sent to the list become Public Domain unless there are clear indications in respect of copyright.

Efforts are made to keep each comp.text.tex post in whole between parts (although certain size constraints may preclude this as a universal rule). In general, each day's distribution has been between 1 and 3 parts, but the number of parts will vary directly with comp.text.tex activity, as well as how spontaneously our news feed keeps up with traffic to SHSU. The ctt-Digest distribution is automatically processed and forwarded to subscribers at approximately 0200 Central Standard/ Daylight Time (US). The address is restricted with respect to posting as it is purely a redistribution list.

The recent developments in computer networking have created the need for unified E-mail systems, capable of handling mail-type communications among users on many different kinds of computers (mainframes, superminis, minis, personal computers), working for the same organization. This communication can be within the organization or directed to other users on the different networks (BitNet, Internet, etc.). This list strives to provide a forum for developers of such systems. Topics to be discussed are how to carry out such an effort, experiences in the implementation, recommended policies, hardware issues, etc. It is aimed primarily (but not limited to) developers of university campus-wide e-mail systems. In an effort to assure a productive environment, subscription will be filtered by the list Coordinators, who may require additional information before a subscription request is accepted (curious bystanders clogging up the network are not desired). The list itself is unmoderated. Monthly notebooks are kept.

DOROTHYL on LISTSERV@KENTVM [Last Updated 12-October-1991] or LISTSERV@KENTVM.KENT.EDU DOROTHYL is a discussion and idea list for lovers of the mystery genre. It was concocted by a group of women librarians at a July 1991 Washington, D.C. meeting of the Association of Research Libraries and named in in honor of one of the great women mystery writers of the century. Agatha Christie and Josephine Tey were strong contenders, but Dorothy L. Sayers had a LISTSERV-blessed middle initial. Although there was serious discussion about limiting DOROTHY to women particpants and it would be entertaining to identify impostors (no doubt men would sneak on with anonymous ID@node, to join in DOROTHY's energizing discussion), the organizers opted for the widest possible number of serious participants. Tenets of DOROTHYL: -Everyone is welcome. -Those who wish to adopt the name of a mystery character, may use that name in postings. -The participants WILL have fun. Some suitable subjects for posting are: - Announcements of forthcoming books and previews. - Reviews, criticisms, comments, and appreciations of mysteries (books, plays, films). - Great mystery bookshops. - Awards. It can take a long time to learn which are the annual prizewinners. DOROTHYL may consider posting these as files. - Mysterious events. Mystery travels, mystery walks in cities, mysteries of life. - Ideas for happenings, perhaps an evening of mystery readings at ALA or ARL or MLA? - An electronic mystery, with clues (apples, perhaps red ones of the Macintosh variety?), villains (the mailer-Daemon?), red herrings (byte-marks?), heroines, detectives -- the potential is as unlimited as the world of networking. At the outset, the list will be un-moderated (self-monitored). Everyone who joins ought to consider contacting her (his) favorite mystery author and inviting her (him) to join this list. Since many mystery writers are academics, this could be a very fruitful and exciting chase. Subscription Instructions: To subscribe from a Bitnet account send an interactive or e-mail message addressed to Listserv@kentvm. From the Internet send mail to listserv@kentvm.kent.edu. If you send e-mail leave the subject line blank. The text of the message must be: Sub DOROTHYL Yourfirstname Yourlastname If you have questions please contact the owners.

DTP-L on LISTSERV@YALEVM.BITNET Many users throughout internet, bitnet & elsewhere have expressed an interest in starting a digest to exchange information on desktop publishing in general, and on the subtleties and complexities of specific programs, including, but not limited to, Quark Xpress, Aldus PageMaker and FreeHand, Adobe Illustrator, Ventura Publisher, Framemaker, Interleaf, and Fontographer. Please note that these would not be system level discussions; they would deal more at the user-level. Also, technical discussions of PostScript for its own sake (and not how it related to these programs) would be covered in the PostScript forums and digests. Caveats aside, every user of these and other programs has discovered some excellent work-arounds, irritating problems, or elegant solutions. These could be shared for the benefit of all. I have also set up contacts with Quark, and I'm receiving quick shipment of Zappers and other software to be available to list members and the net_community at large. Hopefully similiar agreements can be made with other publishers. Some emphasis will be placed on use of service bureaus and medium- to high-resolution output devices (Linotronics, Agfas, Varitypers, etc.) without becoming overly technical. The list organizers (myself and Jeff Wasilko of RIT) also have conventional typesetting backgrounds, and we manage service bureaus at our schools. The list is called DTP-L. To subscribe, execute the CMS command: tell listserv@yalevm subscribe DTP-L firstname middleinit lastname Or send a mail to listserv@yalevm (or listserv@yalevm.ycc.yale.edu) which contains as its first & only line (substitute your name for firstname, etc.): subscribe dtp-l firstname middleinit lastname Because this is a digest, items of interest should NOT be sent to the listserver for efficiency's sake. Send submissions to: glenn_fleishman@yccatsmtp.ycc.yale.edu or to jjwcmp@ultb.isc.rit.edu These submissions will be edited & compiled. When collected items reach 30K they will be distributed through the listserver mechanism to all subscribers.

Its purpose is to help these countries in their transition to market economies. It links academics, students, researchers and business practitioners in Western Europe-Asia-North America with those in the CEE/CIS. E-EUROPE provides information exchange via e-mail and also provides document/file transfers between E-EUROPE subscribers. Please do not send your subscription request to E-EUROPE. The subscriber list is not open for public review in order to prevent "junk e-mail" sent to individual subscribers. One may request to be contacted by posting a message on the network. A. Policy Statement: E-EUROPE Activities E-EUROPE is a "business and economics" communications network for CEE/CIS. Any activity by E-EUROPE subscribers which would normally be conducted between business and economics faculty, students, and business practictioners is allowed and encouraged, and definitely not restricted in any manner. The faculty and students of colleges of business at the university level are expected and required to closely interact and assist the business community. Therefore, as E-EUROPE editor and as a full-time business faculty member, I welcome and encourage full E-EUROPE participation from the business community. B. Present Activities of E-EUROPE 1. E-mail Once a user subscribes to E-EUROPE, (s)he may send mail to the list for distribution to all its members. All members of the mailing list will receive a copy of each piece of mail sent to the list. All of the mail that is received and redistributed by the list is cataloged and stored in a database that can be searched or retrieved by individuals with access to E-EUROPE. In order to prevent "rapid-fire" random e-mail transmissions, all messages are relayed to the E-EUROPE editor for a once-daily (maximum) batch mail release. In addition, each subscriber may disable the automatic E-EUROPE e-mail transmission to their site and download logfiles of each month's traffic. 2. E-EUROPE Filelist Datafiles are available for downloading. The objective is to develop a clearinghouse of information on the business and economic systems of Eastern European countries. To receive the current listing of files, send the following to the LISTSERV (not to E-EUROPE), with the following: GET E-EUROPE FILELIST a) File Downloads GET filename filetype E-EUROPE For example, GET E-EUROPE INTRO E-EUROPE b) File subscriptions Specialized information or information which is too large for normal e-mail is placed in E-EUROPE datafiles for downloading by subscribers. The file E-EUROPE INDEX contains a listing of the current datafiles. You may "subscribe" to a datafile in one of two ways: 1) automatic downloading of the entire file to your address with each update; 2) automatic notification that the file has been updated. You may terminate this file subscription upon demand. Send the following to the LISTSERV (not to E-EUROPE) at PUCC: 1) To download one file, one time, without subscribing: GET filename filetype E-EUROPE Example, GET E-EUROPE INDEX E-EUROPE 2) To receive automatic file downloads (AFD=automatic file distribution) upon file updates: AFD ADD filename filetype E-EUROPE Example: AFD ADD E-EUROPE INDEX E-EUROPE 3) To cancel automatic file downloads: AFD DEL filename filetype E-EUROPE 4) To receive automatic file update information (FUI): FUI ADD filename filetype E-EUROPE 5) To cancel automatic file update information: FUI DEL filename filetype E-EUROPE 6) To receive a list of files to which you are subscribed: AFD LIST or FUI LIST C.

The newsletter is the successor to the print publication, "Hebrew Users Group Newsletter" which was edited by Jack Love, and emanated from the Berkeley Hillel Foundation through 1989. This incarnation is electronic-only, and is mandated, like the original, to cover all things relating to use of Hebrew, Yiddish, Judesmo, and Aramaic on computers. It is released as time permits and information demands, currently every 1-2 weeks. This newsletter is dedicated to the proposition that computers, to be useful, must be usable to people working in all languages, at the convenience of those users. In that spirit, we print all questions pertaining to use of the Hebrew alphabet on computers and answer all those that we can. We encourage discussion on all levels of computer facility--from new users looking for software or Hebrew-related resources (educational, graphic, or otherwise), to discussions by developers on how the software should work (when it works :-)). We also do our best to report on new software (or updates) of interest and to serve as a general news source to the field. The list is maintained via LISTSERV and subscription may be obtained by the usual mechanism of sending the command SUB E-HUG yourfirstname yourlastname to LISTSERV@DARTCMS1. Questions may be directed to the list owner, Ari Davidow . Archives may be obtained from LISTSERV@DARTCMS1 using the SEND command and currently consist of E-HUG 91-00001 to E-HUG 91-00011. e-poetry on LISTSERV@UBVM [Last Update 4/93] or LISTSERV@UBVM.CC.BUFFALO.EDU This list was formed to serve as a vehicle for the distribution of an interactive literary journal: RIF/T and related exchange collection of any information related to contemporary poetics. RIF/T provides a forum for poets that are conversant with the media to explore the full potential of a true electronic journal. Dynamic--not static. RIF/T shifts and riffs with the diction of "trad" poetry investigating a new, flexible, fluid poetry of exchange. Archives of e-poetry and related files are stored in the e-poetry FILELIST.

Coordinator: Gerhard Gonter or EBCBBUL%HDETUD1.BITNET@VM1.NODAK.EDU EBCBBUL is short for EBCB BULletin board, a facet of the European Bank of Computer Programs in Biotechnology (EBCB). EBCB is a non-profit making organization mainly funded by the European Community (EC). The main goal of EBCB is to stimulate and facilitate the use of computers in biotechnological training and research in Europe. EBCBBUL will not only promote user/user communication, but will also provide users with up to date information (e.g. about courses/congresses). Items accepted for the bulletin board will be distributed via electronic mail (e-mail) to all participants and will also be retained for future reference. EBCBBUL is public, and anyone with access to EARN can participate. Before you gain access to EBCBBUL through EARN or a related system, however, you must issue one of the following commands: For EARN nodes operating with VM/CMS systems type the following: TELL LISTSERV AT HDETUD1 SUBSCRIBE EBCBBUL (followed by your name) For EARN nodes operating with VAX/VMS systems type the following: SEND LISTSERV @ HDETUD1 SUBSCRIBE EBCBBUL (followed by your name) On other systems send mail to LISTSERV@HDETUD1 (or LISTSERV@HDETUD1.TUDELFT.NL, or for Internet users LISTSERV%HDETUD1.BITNET@VM1.NODAK.EDU) with the body/text of the mail containing the command: SUB EBCBBUL yourfirstname yourlastname As soon as your request for access has been accepted, you will receive, by e-mail, confirmation of this fact. Because of limitations imposed by e-mail (traffic volume etc.) this may take several hours. After that you will be able to search EBCBBUL using LDBASE or LSVTALK (these are programmes, available within the EARN node, that make interactive searching possible).

We accept files electronically submitted by those who wish to share information, advertise the existence of the files, and electronically mail files to those who request them. As an information provider, your shared files will reach a large audience. We advertise our list of available files on EcoNet, several Internet newsgroups, and several LISTSERV distribution lists. EcoNet is a member of an international association of networks, so your information will potentially reach people in over 90 countries. In addition, we maintain a list of those requesting your files so that you can determine what type of demand there is for your information. As an information subscriber, you will regularly receive an updated list of available files. Each list contains a brief description of the files, enabling you to select those of interest to you. You send us a list of your choices; we send you the files. It's that simple. To submit files: Send us your file (of publishable quality please) electronically. Please include with your submission: * your name * the organization, if any, with which you are affiliated * a title for your file, indicating it's content * how long you wish us to advertise the file To subscribe: Please send us an electronic message indicating: * your name * the organization, if any, with which you are affiliated * your reason for interest * whether you wish to be a regular subscriber, or would like to receive the most recent file list only.

The primary focus is that of college level statistics education, both undergraduate and graduate studies. Statistical literacy has become a social imperative if we are to share a responsible, thoughtful citizenry. As people involved or interested in the instruction of statistics, we have a precious asset in our collective knowledge. This list exists because WE CAN LEARN FROM EACH OTHER: - What techniques are we using in statistical instruction? - What strategies should we use to prepare our students for the future? - What part do/should computers play in instruction? (are computers a new tool or a new subject for students?) - What assets can we share among ourselves? (public-domain software programs, datasets, etc.) There are many individuals working in these areas, each with knowledge valuable to the others. This list attempts to bring together every teacher, student, researcher, and specialist interested in improving statistical instruction. You are encouraged to: - Submit summaries of or commentary on published articles and books which address problems or solutions in teaching statistics - Share the results of your experiments with teaching statistics - Ask thought-provoking questions about the future of statistics education and the environments in which it takes place. - Recruit interested parties to this list, regardless of their status in education, industry or government.

That is people have preferred ways of learning and we can maximize teaching effectivenes by taking these styles into account. There are many flavors of learning styles and all are welcome on this Edstyle. The orientation, however, is toward the Learning Styles model of Dunn and Dunn and it is expected that Rita Dunn will make personal contributions. The list will be unmoderated and open to all. In addition to the ususal conference messages, the list will be the center for research projects involving the evaluation of learning style procedures and testing instruments. It is expected that Innotech in the Phillippines and the Center for Success in Learning will be participating in the initial research effort, but other investigators will be welcome. Finally, the Edstyle List will be intimately connected with the Unibase system of Leigh Calnek in Canada. By connecting to the unibase system via telnet, real-time conferences on learning styles will be available and it is expected that leaders in the Learning Styles movement will be on hand for these conferences. The list is open to anyone interested in education including classroom teachers, administrators, parents, and academics. Discussions on the value of Learning Styles, the comparative effective of the various programs, as well as reports on successful or unsuccessful application are welcome.

Discussion and tips on how to find jobs are also welcome here on the EEJOBS discussion. Many users of BITnet are familiar with the LISTSERV style of lists. The server that the EEJOBS list operates on is *NOT* a LISTSERV. It is based on the UMNEWS software developed at the University of Maine. The server requires special subject lines in order for the mail to be processed properly. Commands to the server located at ST6267@AIX370.SIU.EDU should have a subject line containing only "SERVER.COMMANDS" (without the quotes, of course). To subscribe to the EEJOBS list, send mail with a subject of "SERVER.COMMANDS" to ST6267@AIX370.SIU.EDU. In the body of the mail, put on the first line, "/BBOARD SUB EEJOBS" (no quotes) or "/BBOARD SIGNON EEJOBS" (no quotes) and you will be added to the EEJOBS list. You may leave any time by sending the command "/BBOARD UNSUB EEJOBS" or "BBOARD SIGNOFF EEJOBS" to the server, again with a subject of "SERVER.COMMANDS". Postings to the EEJOBS list located at ST6267@AIX370.SIU.EDU should have a subject line of the following format: "POSTING.EEJOBS topic" where "topic" is the subject line you want sent on the post. The "POSTING." part of the subject line tells the server that this is a POSTING and not commands to be processed. The "EEJOBS" tells the server which discussion this post is to be distributed to. The "topic" part is the ONLY part of the subject that will actually be distributed to the subscribers of the EEJOBS list. For example, if a user sends mail to ST6267@AIX370.SIU.EDU with a Subject: of "POSTING.EEJOBS Position available at Intel" the only part of the subject that subscribers to EEJOBS will see is "Position available at Intel". The rest of the subject is for the server's use only so that it knows what to do with the mail. Currently digests are not kept of the postings to any of the topics served by the server located at ST6267@AIX370.SIU.EDU, this will change in the future as time allows the author, Jerome Grimmer, to write the code and clear the disk space.

Please note that messages to the list should be send to the list adress ELLHNIKA@DHDURZ1 and not to the LISTSERV. Languages of the list are English and Greek (Modern please!!) It would be appreciated if you use Silvio Levy's transliteration for Greek, as long as no other transliteration has been fixed. If you have to use a different one, please precise the corres- pondences at top of the message. The list is intended for linguists of any origin having to typeset ancient Greek, as well as for people using Greek as their everyday's language. It is quite a dilemma for me to encourage - the former to participate in English and discuss the TeXnical problems of ancient Greek - the latter to participate in Greek and in this way get used to the transliterated expression of the language; as I said in the "CALL", a certain effort must be taken to bypass the handicap of having a different alphabet, this list should serve as a starting point inside the TeX world. So there are two languages and two directions to take. Let's find a compromise based on the spirit of cooperation!

The list is intended to provide the opportunity for software engineers and those interested in software engineering to discuss ethical concerns of the discipline. As the discipline is rapidly advancing new ethical issues arise in the practice of software engineering. The group might be expected to discuss things like the move by some state governments toward licensing software engineers, establishing a code of ethics, or articulating a set of principles which guide professional practice. The list can also be used as a place to announce conferences, and publications and issue call for papers. To subscribe, send an interactive message or mail to LISTSERV@UTKVM1 or mail to LISTSERV@UTKVM1.UTK.EDU with the body containing the command SUBscribe ETHCSE-L First_name Last_name List Owner: Don Gotterbarn I01GBARN@ETSU.BITNET ETHICS-L%MARIST.BITNET@CUNYVM.CUNY.EDU Discussions of ethics in computing usually generate more heat than light. This list could do a lot toward generating more light if we do more than trade war stories and opinions of the "I'm right and you're NOT" variety. Of course we can't get any work done without some war stories, since they furnish food for thought. But we shouldn't stop there. Given our experiences, we ought to be able to delineate the basic issues and hot areas in computer ethics. Some current ones have to do with: - ownership of information (both data and program files) - what happens when systems programs fail? Is anyone responsible for damage done? Or is the responsibility only for the necessary fix? - responsibility for program failures (Is the company responsible? the programmer? the lead programmer? the project manager?) Who's responsible for the "fix"? - how much privacy is reasonable (there are all kinds of levels here; data bases, systems, LANs, networks, etc.) BitNet users can add themselves to the list by issuing the following command to LISTSERV@MARIST.BITNET: SUBSCRIBE ETHICS-L your_full_name where your_full_name is your real name (not your userid). BitNet users can unsubscribe with the command: UNSUBSCRIBE ETHICS-L All other requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to the Moderators.

It is not intended to discuss either EV appropriateness or comparisons with other transportation primary drive modes such as the venerable internal combustion engine. Those "discussions" are best relegated to the appropriate usenet newsgroup. An electric vehicle is any vehicle which uses an electric motor as the primary or sole motive force. The energy storage device used to drive said motor can use any technology including, but not limited to, solar electric, electric battery, internal combustion engine coupled with a electric generator, or any combination of these. Production electric vehicles are currently available. Internal combustion engine vehicles can be converted to electric. There exist a number of companies who perform this conversion. There is also a number of manufacturers of equipment allowing you to do-it-yourself.

Sample subjects include: 1. EXPRESS information sources (where to find things, how to download information, etc.) We hope eventually to include some such information in this introductory posting. 2. Information modeling techniques and sample models built in EXPRESS. 3. Sample applications of EXPRESS (we need as many as possible!). 4. The EXPRESS-I instantiation language, and the EXPRESS-G graphical form of EXPRESS. 5. EXPRESS tools, both those that exist and requirements for new tools (translators, editors, validation tools, EXPRESS-G editors, database implementations, etc.) 6. Discussions of the EXPRESS metamodel, for example: The STEP Semantic Unification Metamodel (SUMM), Dr. Stanley Su's work at the University of Florida, and Michael Yinger's EXPRESSWARE work at TSC. 7. The relationship of EXPRESS to other modeling languages and methodologies (IDEF1X, NIAM, OSAM*, ERM, etc.) 8. We hope that the Users' Group will be able to contribute to the development of EXPRESS, both by contributing actual effort and by bringing relevant work to the attention of the community. 9. How to organize/mobilize the EXPRESS User Group activities; how to spread the word about EXPRESS to the rest of the world.

A group of environmental educators will review White House briefings, summit transcripts and post-summit follow-up materials which will be made available electronically by the Administration. Drawing from existing curriculum materials, this group of educators will produce brief teacher guides for various grade levels. This will be supplemented with guides to available educational resources on forest-related subjects. The entire package will be distributed to computer networks serving education. On each of these networks, interactive discussion of the material by students and teachers will be encouraged by volunteer online teacher/mentors. There is no budget associated with this project, only the tremendous "capital" it could generate by showing how online networking can benefit education. Teachers and students involved in the "Forest Summit Online" project will experience an interactive, dynamic forum that is the result of their cumulative activity. Each forum (the interactive part may vary depending on the network accessed) will focus on common, unaltered text materials coming from three sources: -- The U.S. Department of Education will provide introductory material. -- The White House. Complete transcripts of Forest Summit-related briefings, press conferences, announcements and the complete transcripts of summit speakers will be posted online by the White House Communications Office. -- Supplemental materials developed by the project steering committee. The project can be accessed in a number of ways, by users of many computer networks. -- FORSUM-L@BROWNVM.BROWN.EDU -- A public automated mailing list at Brown University, devoted to this project. This list will be linked to the conference at EcoNet. It will be accessible to the more than 1 million users on the Internet and Bitnet computer networks, though it will be selectively advertised only within online forums focusing on CLASSROOM EDUCATION. Subscribe by sending a message to LISTSERV@BROWNVM.brown.edu (or LISTSERV@BROWNVM.bitnet), with only the following text in the message body: SUBSCRIBE FORSUM-L Your Name -- list.forsum -- The mailing list will be linked to the conference at EcoNet, and from there to Association for Progressive Communications networks in other countries. For details on EcoNet access, send e-mail to . -- schl.proj.forest and schl.proj.general -- SchlNet conferences accessible via FrEdMail and on state educational computing networks subscribing to the SchlNet service, run by the FrEdMail Foundation, which reaches more than 10,000 schools nation-wide. For details on SchlNet and FrEdMail, send e-mail to fred@acme.fred.org. -- Learning Link -- PBS Learning Link also will carry the list.forsum discussion, offering it to some 24,000 teachers at schools in the areas served by 22 Public Broadcasting System affiliate stations. VOLUNTEER TEACHER/MENTOR/MONITORS will review the online discussion and post questions in the online forums, guiding discussion toward informed, fair, critical analysis of the issues. They will endeavor to assist teachers and students with finding information or academic resources that support their study of the issues. They also will attempt to elicit feedback from teachers and students about how the information presented by this project is being used in their classrooms and studies. LISTS OF AVAILABLE EDUCATION RESOURCES that focus on forest issues will be posted online by the project steering committee to help teachers integrate the Forest Summit into their existing curriculum. These will include the results of an ERIC search by the AskERIC Information Resource service at Syracuse University. It could also include a list of environmental education concepts related to forests, extracted from NAAEE's "Essential Learnings In Environmental Education" database. CURRICULUM UNITS focusing on forests could be included, if appropriate. REFERRALS to other online forums where forest issues are being discussed will be made. EXPERTS could be connected online to answer questions from students and teachers. Here again, achieving balance and fairness in representing all views is probably tricky, but this could be useful to make sure that a wide range of views is guaranteed. GUIDED ACTIVITIES, such as role-playing in online discussion, may be useful techniques to introduce to help focus dialog. Volunteers are needed, especially teachers experienced in online facilitation. Contact to offer assistance. ---------------------------------------------------------------- The online conferences/mailing lists receiving and participating in this project are electronic classrooms, run by teachers for the benefit of their students.

This project at the College of Business Administration of the University of Rhode Island uses E-mail as a mechanism for promoting faculty and curricular development, and as an avenue for students to familiarize themselves with future global partners. In this project, pairs of faculty from different nations are linked by discipline to (1) jointly develop curricula for emphasizing global perspectives, and (2) jointly teach students, here and abroad, by engaging them in debates via E-mail across borders about critical issues of their fields. Faculty around the world who are interested in internationalizing their own business or managment curricula are invited to this list. To subscribe to GC-L send e-mail to LISTSERV@URIACC on BITNET or to LISTSERV@URIACC.URI.EDU with the BODY of the mail containing: SUB GC-L your name Project Director is Dr. Chai K.

GEODESIC%UBVM.BITNET@MITVMA.MIT.EDU This list is for the discussion of Buckminster "Bucky" Fuller, his works and his philosophies on Life, the Universe, and Everything (NOT The Douglas Adams book!). For those of you who don't know, Bucky is the person who invented the Geodesic Dome, which is what we all played on as children in the playground (the domes with all the triangles, remember?). Another example of geodesic architecture is the giant white sphere at Disney World's "Epcot Center". Of course, Bucky did a LOT more than just invent the Geodesic Dome! He invented other means of housing people cheaply, efficiently, COMFORTABLY, and basically anywhere in the world! (Yes, even ON the oceans!) So if you're interested in discussing Bucky, learning more about him, or finding out about 8500 ft. high pyramidal cities that float in the ocean and house 1,000,000 people comfortably (2000 sq ft. apartments with 1000 sq ft. extra patio/garden space), or 1+ mile diameter spherical cities that FLOAT IN THE AIR *WITHOUT POWER*, then sign up on the list!

It serves as a forum for users to ask questions about using the software, to post interesting or useful pieces of GLE code that they have developed, to get news about new versions of the program, and for any other communication that seems relevant. Chris Pugmire, the author of GLE, is a member of the mailing list, so it can also serve as a conduit for bug reports or requests for new features. GLE is a high quality graphics package for scientists. It runs on a variety of platforms (PCs, VAXes, and Unix) with drivers for XWindows, REGIS, TEK4010, PC graphics cards, VT100s, HP plotters, Postscript printers, Epson-compatible printers and Laserjet/Paintjet printers. It provides LaTEX quality fonts, as well as full support for Postscript fonts. The graphing module provides full control over all features of graphs. The graphics primitives include user-defined subroutines for complex pictures and diagrams. Accompanying utilities include Surface (for hidden line surface plotting), Contour (for contour plots), Manip (for manipulation of columnar data files), and Fitls (for fitting arbitrary equations to data). Archives of the GLEList group are stored on the server machine. To get a list of all GLEList-related files, send the following command in the body of an email message to listserver@tbone.biol.scarolina.edu: index glelist -all The archives can be searched by the listserver software.

(Net access is better in many "third world" schools than in South-Central Los Angeles). GNET consists of two parts, an archive directory and a moderated discussion. Archived documents are available by anonymous ftp from the directory global_net at dhvx20.csudh.edu (155.135.1.1). To conserve bandwidth, the archive contains an abstract of each document, as well as the full document. (Those without ftp access can contact me for instructions on mail-based retrieval). In addition to the archive, there is a moderated GNET discussion list. The list is limited to discussion of the documents in the archive. It is hoped that document authors will follow this discussion, and update their documents accordingly. If this happens, the archive will become a dynamic journal. Monthly mailings will list new papers added to the archive. We wish broad participation, with papers from nuts-and-bolts to visionary. Suitable topics include, but are not restricted to: descriptions of networks and projects host and user hardware and software connection options and protocols current and proposed applications education using the global net user and system administrator training social, political or spriritual impact economic and environmental impact politics and funding free speech, security and privacy directories of people and resources To submit a document to the archive or subscribe to the moderated discussion list, use the address gnet_request@dhvx20.csudh.edu.

The list is sponsored by Saint Michael's College in Winooski, Vermont. The list is intended to serve as a discussion point for GO-related topics, and as a meeting place for EMAIL games between list members. In contrast to the majority of BITNET lists, this one is supported by a DEC uVAX 3400 running the MAILSERV program for VAX/VMS. Consequently, commands used to access the list are slightly different than those used by LISTSERV. MAILSERV supports the following commands, among others: HELP - Ask for the HELP file. SUBSCRIBE - Subscribe to a list. LISTS - List all mailing lists for a MAILSERVer. MAILSERV accepts only mail messages; not interactive SENDs or TELLs. Be sure to send only a mail message with your commands in the body of the message. Don't type any other text into the message; it won't work! As an example, to subscribe to the GO-L list, send a mail message to MAILSERV%SMCVAX.BITNET@VM1.NODAK.EDU and in the body of the message just put the command SUBSCRIBE GO-L Notice that you don't need to give a subscription name; MAILSERV gets it From your address.

OCLC tapes; database consideration; retrospective conversion; etc.), document end user education and legislation related to depository libraries. United Nations, State and Foreign Government documents can be included for discussion. The list is moderated but uncensored. It is edited with the intention of producing a digest at the end of the year.

Kovacs grad-adv@listserv.acs.unc.edu This list has three major goals at the onset: 1. to put folks who advise undergraduates about graduate school in touch with their peers and with graduate schools. Being on the list will provide this service. 2. to create of a catalog of accessable catalogs (using Art St. George's Library catalog catalog as a model) to facilitate electronic access to graduate school information. I will gather information here unless there is another volunteer out there. 3. to identify useful and/or neccessary information that would be used in a graduate school information database with an eye toward network standard tags and a single engine queriable distributed database of graduate school information (probably SQL for example) that would allow students and advisors to search several catalogs maintained at different universities. Point three is very blue sky for the moment, but if we keep it in mind, the technology exists and the end is actually achievable. Other points will, I'm sure, arise. To add yourself to grad-adv, send a MAIL message of: subscribe grad-adv to listserv@listserv.acs.unc.edu To remove yourself from grad-adv, send a MAIL message of: unsubscribe grad-adv to listserv@listserv.acs.unc.edu Mail to be distributed to grad-adv should be sent to: grad-adv@listserv.acs.unc.edu To learn more about our UNIX-based listserv and mail archiver send a MAIL message of: help to listserv@listserv.acs.unc.edu GRADNRSE on LISTSERV@KentVM.Kent.EDU [Last Update 6/93] or LISTSERV@KENTVM.BITNET The GradNrse is a discussion group for practicing nurses. It is moderated by Linda Q. Thede, RN, MSN, and originates at Kent State University, Kent, Ohio, USA. It is intended to provide practicing nurses worldwide a place to give and get information about practice situations from their colleagues. Broad ideas for discussion include: 1. Actual practice problems and/or solutions, (eg. "I have a patient with XX disease, what experiences does anyone else have with this situation?") 2. Nursing law in one's state. 3. Nursing ethics situations. 4. Nursing policies/politics. 5. Staff development or patient education. 6. Short summaries and or reactions to news articles affecting nursing. Naturally, it is not limited to the above topics, these are just suggestions. In short, anything that would be of interest to practicing nurses, is great!

This list is being run out of the Open Computing Facility at UC Berkeley. This is a cluster of 18 Apollo Domain DN3500 workstations run by a completely student staff. This cluster is not the most stable one in the world but mail here generally is. (Note: I said GENERALLY.) From time to time this cluster might disappear off of the net and your submission might not make it through. But these occurrences should be even less frequent now with the addition of another network gateway. So if your submission to the list bounce, try again later and the list should be back up. Archives: From time to time there will be informational postings from Pete or other developers about their products related to the GS/DSP, these messages will be archived and if you want send a message to the list coordinator and he will forward to you the requested file.

The UIC history department has a long-standing interest in the history of Chicago and other U.S. cities, ethnicity and immigration, and of European and Russian urban development. The primary purpose of H-Urban is to enable urban historians to easily communicate current research and research interests; to discuss new approaches, methods and tools of analysis; to share reviews of useful resources including monographs, journals, articles, and primary source materials such as papers, maps, records, and databases; and to announce calls for papers, conferences, museum and society shows, exhibitions, job opportunities, grants and fellowships. H-Urban is also a forum for exploring the approaches, methods and tools used in teaching history to graduate and undergraduate students. As described below, UIC is establishing an electronic archive easily accessible to historians. Syllabi, reading lists, and examinations would all be valuable additions to the archive. Discussion of cities throughout human history, and in all geographic areas is welcome. To subscribe to H-Urban, send a note to Listserv@UICVM or Listserv@uicvm.uic.edu with the following command in the BODY: Subscribe H-Urban Your Full Name H-Urban Fileserver Documents of interest to urban historians -- bibliographies, book and article reviews, announcements, teaching materials, and descriptions of tools, techniques, and computer software and hardware -- will be made available from the H-Urban fileserver.

They are also available via ANONYMOUS FTP to VM1.NODAK.EDU (134.129.111.1). Enter CD HELPNET after connecting. Anyone may subscribe to the HELPNET list; however, the list is set up so that only subscribers may send mail to the list (to avoid accidental SUBSCRIBE commands). You may subscribe to HELPNET by sending mail to LISTSERV@NDSUVM1 (BitNet) or LISTSERV@VM1.NODAK.EDU with the body/text of the message containing the command: SUB HELPNET your_full_name where "your_full_name" is your real name, not your loginid. If BitNet users wish to be able to send messages to the list but read it through some other means (eg. GRAND), then ALSO include the command: SET HELPNET NOMAIL which will allow you to contribute but not send you redundant mail. Coordinator: Marty Hoag HELP-NET on LISTSERV@TEMPLEVM.Bitnet HELPSERV has evolved. Helpserv and all its component files have been integrated (finally!) into LISTSERV at TEMPLEVM. In addition, there has been the addition of a mailing list, and a NAME CHANGE. Help-Net is a discussion list for the purposes of solving user problems with utilities and software related to the Internet and Bitnet networks. In addition, LISTSERV at TEMPLEVM maintains a set of low-level help files intended to help the beginning user acclimatize himself to the network systems. Both novice and experienced users are encouraged to join the discussion list, either to ask questions, or to answer them. Questions on almost any network topic are encouraged, however there are a few ground rules we ask that you observe. 1. Please do not post where can I find this game, or that specific gif file, etc. There are several lists that deal specifically with those topics. The question, Where would I find a list that could tell me where to get ??? on the other hand is quite acceptable. 2. Please do not post any messages that relate to the illegal traffic of copyrighted material. 3. Feel free to redistribute the help files freely. We do ask that you identify the source of any materials. 4. We gratefully accept both topics for additional Help sheets, and submissions to be placed on the server. For more information about submitting, get the file SUBMIT INFO from the server. See below for instructions. Below are some brief instructions on how to access the HELP-NET list. 1. Signing on to the list. Send the following command to LISTSERV at TEMPLEVM, as either an interactive message or the body of a mail message: SUB HELP-NET (Your Name) 2. Getting a file from the list. Send the following command to LISTSERV at TEMPLEVM: GET HELP-NET FILELIST Choose which files you want and send a get command for each of those files. If you have a problem, ask the list. It's what we are here for. Please note that you must be a list subscriber to access files. 3. Posting a message on the list. - Send your mail message to HELP-NET at TEMPLEVM. Your mail will be forwarded to all list members, and you will be replied to. I thank everyone for their support and interest and hope that I and the HELP-NET will continue to be of service to everyone in the network community. If you have any questions regarding Help-Net, please direct them to V4078 at TEMPLEVM. Again, thank you for your support.

The List is edited and published electronically by Gunther Gottschalk of the University of California at Santa Barbara and will include discussion items, pre-publication announcements, texts, interpretations, analyses, critiques, reviews, bibliographies on Hesse and his contemporaries. The principal languages of the list will be English and German, but contributions in other languages are welcome. The list is intended to establish better contacts among readers of Hesse and related authors and to contribute to the discussion of his life and his works. In the near future, archives of HESSE-L and related files will be stored in the HESSE-L filelist. It is hoped to attract a number of prepublication manuscripts and other materials released by their authors, by journals, or by the holder of the rights to Hesse's works, Suhrkamp Verlag. Part of the year the List will be run by its owner through the facilities of the J.W. Goethe University in Frankfurt.

We are especially interested in reaching college teachers of history who already have, or plan to teach courses on the Holocaust. HOLOCAUS will therefore actively solicit syllabi, reading lists, termpaper guides, ideas on films and slides, and tips and comments that will be of use to the teacher who wants to add a single lecture, or an entire course. The tone and target audience will be scholarly, and academic standards and styles will prevail. HOLOCAUS is affiliated . HOLOCAUS is moderated by Jim Mott (JimMott@spss.com), a PhD in History. The moderator will solicit postings (by email, phone and even by US mail), will assist people in subscribing and setting up options, will handle routine inquiries, and will consolidate some postings. The moderator will also solicit and post newsletter type information (calls for conferences, for example, or listings of sessions at conventions.) It may prove feasible to commission book and article reviews, and to post book announcements from publishers. Anyone with suggestions about what HOLOCAUS can and might do is invited to send in the ideas. To subscribe to HOLOCAUS, you need an Internet or Bitnet computer account.

Of course issuing standard 'SUB HOSPEX your full name' to LISTSERV@PLEARN will do as well. You'll be sent a form to be filled and returned. This subsribtion procedure is manual, so it may take few days sometimes. We are looking for lots of users outside the U.S. to subscribe (and U.S. users too, but now there are many more U.S. users than an other nation). Eventually, those who subscribe will be asked to send us a form which describes something about yourself, the type of accommodations you have, languages you speak, restrictions you want, etc. When a file exists with this information on you, those traveling can look through all the files for the countries in which they will be traveling to find a host that seems interesting them. So, this information you must eventually send to one of HOSPEX owners is important.

All aspects (hardware, software, staff training, confidentiality of patient data, etc) will be covered. Particular attention will be paid to existing networks both in USA and abroad. Transmission of both text and medical image data will be considered via both land- lines and satellite. The cost-effectiveness of such distance-consulting will be reviewed in the light of declining rural hospital acute-care capabilities, and the economic benefits of keeping the patient in the rural area.

Human-Nets has discussed many topics, all of them related in some way to the theme of a world-wide computer and telecommunications network usually called WorldNet. The topics have ranged very widely, from something like tutorials, to state of the art discussions, to rampant speculation about technology and its impact. The list is extremely large, making it necessary to batch messages sent to the list and distributing them once each day during off peak periods to avoid overloading the system. The permanent archives contain all of the material distributed to the list. Due to size, this archive is broken down into several different files, stored in reverse temporal order. The files are currently stored on Internet host RU-BLUE in files RHYTHM:HUMNET.* (where "*" is a wild-card). All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to HUMAN-NETS-REQUEST@ARAMIS.RUTGERS.EDU.

In a broad sense, this includes virtually anything dealing with medicine in relation to diving and HyperBaric Medicine. The explicit purpose of HYPBAR-L is to provide timely interchange between subscribers, to provide a forum where interesting questions can be addressed within the context of interactive exchange between many individuals, to discuss the evolution and application of HyperBaric and Diving Medicine, to announce professional meetings, calls for papers, and any additional information that would be of interest. As is the case on all unmoderated lists, the discussion and topics are only limited by the participation and interest of its subscribers. Subscribers are welcome to take an active role by posting and/or an inactive role by monitoring the list. Although not necessary for participation, it shall be assumed that all subscribers are basically familiar with the medical jargon that is used on this list. To subscribe to HYPBAR-L, please send mail or file to LISTSERV@TECHNION or listserv@technion.technion.ac.il and place in the body of the text the line SUB HYPBAR-L .

It does however draw on the concepts, traditions and expertise of all of these other standards activities. The purpose of this list is to discuss the issues related to provision of "local loop" PSTN dialup service for mail transfers between X.400/X.500 service host systems (MTA, MS, UA) and to develop draft specifications for experimental implementation of such a service. It is intended and expected that one or more openly available experimental implementations will be forthcoming after specifications are completed, and before any formal standards work is initiated. Although the ad hoc DIALUP Task Group is open to anyone, it is not intended to be a news group with a broad mission to educate. The list was established to foster serious work by experts in the field. New members are expected to do their homework before entering the discussion. IFIP-DIALUP is not distributed to any USENET newsgroup. It is only served by an INTERNET mailing list exploder at ICS.UCI.EDU.

Vaninadha Rao india-in-languages@ee.rochester.edu [Last Update 5/93] This list will provide an online insight into languages of the Indian subcontinent. There are at least twenty major languages in the area; a diversity unequalled by a continent like Europe. Participating members include speakers of various languages. As a lot of similarity exists between the languages we shortly expect to evolve a common code, that would act as a standard for future such efforts. There are almost a million Indians living in the USA and countless others have email access alll over the world. There are also numerous scholars of Indian languages who would benefit from this effort.

To subscribe, please send the following line as the body of a mail item SUB INDOLOGY your_first_name your_second_name to LISTSERV @ LIVERPOOL.AC.UK Note: This was formerly a private list based at ucl.ac.uk List owners: D.WUJASTYK @ UCL.AC.UK Dominik Wujastyk QQ43 @ LIVERPOOL.AC.UK Chris Wooff INFO-1100@TUT.CIS.OHIO-STATE.EDU This discussion list focuses on the Xerox/Envos Lisp environment and the associated protocols. Its purpose is to stimulate communication and sharing between computer science research groups that use or are interested in the environment. The list may be used for messages such as announcements of available lispusers packages or for queries such as "Does anybody know of a PUP file server implementation for the Sinclair ZX-80?" or to warn others of Interlisp-D and Medley bugs and/or suggest workarounds or to solicit help or discussion. Xerox PARC, SIS, and Envos people are included in the distribution to facilitate communication about new developments, bugs, performance issues, etc.. Additionally, Info-1100 is automatically forwarded to AISupport.pasa@Xerox.com, where bugs are noted and acted upon if appropriate. Xerox AIS and Envos employees will not respond in Info-1100 unless the reply is of general interest or silence would mislead the readership. This mailing list is also distributed as the usenet newsgroup comp.sys.xerox. A historical note describing the name: The Lisp environment was originally implemented on Xerox' 1100-series workstations, and the user base is primarily still on 1108's, 1109's, and 1186's. Requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc. should be sent to Info-1100-Request@TUT.CIS.OHIO-STATE.EDU. Coordinator: Arun Welch INFO-68K@BERKELEY.EDU Mailing list for users of OS's capable of running on small 68000 systems, primarly CP/M-68K. Related systems (OS/9-68K, etc.) and topics welcome. Mail archives are kept on host WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL as TOPS20 mail files named yymm.n-TXT, where n starts with one and increments by one into another file as each file reached 150 disk pages. To conserve disk space, all the mail files in the archive, except for the current year, are individually compressed. The compressed files have the suffix -Z as part of the filetype field; they should be renamed to have the suffix .Z (uppercase Z) when transfered to a Unix system so the uncompress program will find them. The current month's mail is still kept in 68K-ARCHIV.TXT. The archives are stored in directory: PD2: Archive files are available via ANONYMOUS FTP from WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL for those with TCP/IP access to the Internet. All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to Info-68K-Request@BERKELEY.EDU. Coordinator: Mike Meyer info-ada@AJPO.SEI.CMU.EDU Mailing list for announcements, questions and discussions of a technical nature, requests for information, and just about anything else having to do with the Ada programming language (ANSI/MIL-STD-1815A-1983). Messages are collected and automatically digested on a daily basis for mail distribution via WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL. Individual messages are bidirectionally gatewayed with the USENET newsgroup comp.lang.ada. The list is redistributed for BITNet, EARN, and NetNorth via the peered lists INFO-ADA@NDSUVM1 and INFO-ADA@FINHUTC on BITNet and EARN; both sites run Eric Thomas's LISTSERV. Archives of messages can be found on host AJPO.SEI.CMU.EDU in the files ~ftp/public/infoada/* (the path name is case-sensitive), and are available to DDN users via anonymous FTP. All Internet requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, etc., should be sent to info-ada-request@AJPO.SEI.CMU.EDU. BITNet, EARN, and NetNorth users can subscribe by sending the SUB command with your name; for example: SEND LISTSERV@host SUB INFO-APP your_full_name or TELL LISTSERV AT host SUB INFO-APP your_full_name To be removed from the list, SEND LISTSERV@host SIGNOFF INFO-APP or TELL LISTSERV AT host SIGNOFF INFO-APP where "host" is NDSUVM1 or FINHUTC and "your_full_name" is your name (NOT your net address). Coordinator: Karl A. Nyberg Info-Andrew@ANDREW.CMU.EDU An informal mailing list intended for general discussion by recipients of the Andrew distribution (and implementors of Andrew). Andrew, a joint project of Carnegie Mellon University & IBM, is a prototype computing environment for academic and research use under the UNIX operating system. There are four main parts to Andrew: - The Andrew File System (AFS), a large-scale distributed central file system. - The Andrew Toolkit (ATK), a toolkit for building complex graphical user interface programs in a window-manager independent way (currently runs on X11 and the old Andrew window manager) - The Andrew Message System (AMS), a multi-media mail and bulletin board system compatible with non-multi-media systems - The Andrew application programs, a suite of programs that use the ATK to provide various useful features. Topics can include (but are not limited to): - hints about using/building Andrew - discussions about desired features, changes, etc. - comments about the Andrew distribution (e.g., "it stinks", "it's great") - questions about the availability/existence of other parts of Andrew The mailing list is available in both Andrew multi-media format (if you have the AMS up and running) and plain-text format. By default you will be sent plain-text versions of the posts, but you can request a change in which version you receive by sending mail to the -Request address. When sending a message to this list, you should feel free to include any multi-media images (rasters, animations, etc.) which might help to express you question, comment, etc. Such images will automatically be stripped out and replaced by "A picture appeared here" before being redistributed to the plain-text recipients. All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to Info-Andrew-Request@ANDREW.CMU.EDU. NOTE: All subscription requests will also be added to the Info-Andrew-Bugs distribution list unless specifically requested not to. Coordinator: Adam Stoller Info-Andrew-Bugs@ANDREW.CMU.EDU Mailing list for reporting bugs/problems with the Andrew distribution. (See Info-Andrew entry for more detailed description on what "Andrew" is). Official responses to queries and bug reports will be posted to this mailing list. Topics include: - problems discovered in building the distribution - problems discovered in running parts of the distribution - questions about difficulties encountered (even if you're not sure they're bugs) When sending a message to this list, you should feel free to include any multi-media images (rasters, animations, etc.), that might help to clarify a bug report. Such images will automatically be stripped out and replaced by "A picture appeared here" before being redistributed to the plain-text recipients. The list will be moderated, so that all bugs can be tracked and referenced with patch files. We expect that posts will go out to the subscribers about once a week, summarizing those reports which have been fixed and those still being looked into. All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to Info-Andrew-Bugs-Request@ANDREW.CMU.EDU. NOTE: All subscription requests will also be added to the Info-Andrew distribution list unless specifically requested not to.

It is for the discussion of most topics, including hardware, systems and applications programming, networking, and connectivity. IBM and third-party solutions may be discussed. The list is primarily aimed at system administrators, managers, and programmers. Because this is an Internet/BITNET list, the use of AS/400 systems in research and education, and in the context of cooperative interational networks, is certain to be of interest. It is hoped that beginners will turn to the list for answers to their questions, and that more experienced participants will provide gentle answers. These topics should be avoided, as they will get in the way of our discussions of how to solve real problems with the systems we have: (1) the merits of IBM AS/400 products relative to their competitors, (2) product announcements, and (3) IBM bashing. (Other topics may be added to this list in the future.) Owner: Info-AS400-Request@Joiner.COM (IBM AS/400 Discussion Coordinator) Arnold@Joiner.COM (Stephen L. Arnold) Notebooks: No Notes: 1. This list is unmoderated. Submissions to Info-AS400@Joiner (Info-AS400@Joiner.COM) are immediately forwarded to the list. 2. This is not a LISTSERV list and requests for list changes are handled manually by the coordinator. Send requests to update the list to Info-AS400-Request@Joiner.COM. The list is a PMDF distribution list hosted on a VAX system running VMS. 3. Contributions sent to this list are manually archived. Requests for old postings will be answered by the coordinator. Send such requests to Info-AS400-Request@Joiner.COM. If there is sufficient demand for automatic subscription and archive service, I'll explore ways to provide it.

Moderator: Dan Burrows info-frame@AEROSPACE.AERO.ORG Mailing list for System Frameworks. This group is designed to provide information for software tool developers that are responsible for integrating heterogenous software products. This can include in-house and vendor supplied. Usually, the integration of the products is designed to provide an environment that makes using the tools easier. The basic issue is to build a `framework' around the tools that provides a common and consistent view of the system. The framework is not limited to homogeneous environments, but also can span heterogeneous systems. Companies like EDA and government sponsored projects like EIS are trying to tackle this problem. This group can be viewed as a forum for users and developers to voice their opinions on this subject. Frameworks are common in the area of CAD/CAE, CASE and office automation; but they are not limited to only these areas. Topics open for discussion are: Process Control/Flow Data Transfer Languages Tool Portability Tool encapsulation Data Management Network Computing User Interface Object Programming Anything Else All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to info-frame-request@AEROSPACE.AERO.ORG. Moderator: Louis McDonald INFO-FUTURES@World.STD.COM Digest to provide a speculative forum for analyzing current and likely events in technology as they will affect our near future in computing and related areas. In broad terms, topics of interest include developments in both computing research and industry which are likely to affect our decision making, particularly decisions we are probably grappling with right this minute. Technologies can change so rapidly that simply forecasting for needs within any organization one or two years in advance can be extremely difficult, frequently we are forced to provide foundations that effectively lock us into a technology for longer periods of time. It is hoped the information this list provides can help both the practitioner and researcher determine where best to expend resources.

Coordinator: John Cargill info-gnu-msdos@wugate.wustl.edu The GNUISH MsDos Development Group The Free Software Foundation (FSF) is not directly interested in integrating or maintaining ports of GNU software to MS-DOS, because of limited resources. These activities take time away from finishing a complete standalone GNU, which FSF and many in the GNU Project considers much more important. There is a mailing list to discuss these MsDos ports of GNU software. It is called info-gnu-msdos@wugate.wustl.edu. It is managed by an experimental Unix-based listserv program. Send the command: add info-gnu-msdos to: listserv@wugate.wustl.edu to become subscribed to the list. Send a message containing only 'help' to get more information about the listserv. Do not send these commands to info-gnu-msdos. They should go to the listserv address. The list is not moderated, not digestified, and open to subscription by anyone. Problems with the mailing list should be directed to: info-gnu-msdos-request@wugate.wustl.edu To get more information about the GNUISH project, look at the file on wuarchive.wustl.edu (128.252.135.4) in the mirrors/msdos/gnuish directory called '00msdos.gnu'. david@wubios.wustl.edu ^ Mr. David J.

Coordinator: Gern Info-IBMPC@WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL Info-IBMPC is a forum for technical discussion of the IBM Personal Computer and compatible micro-computers, providing a way for interested members of the Internet community to compare notes, ask questions, and share insights of a technical nature about these machines. While it is not primarily a consumer's guide to the IBM PC, the digest may also be useful for that purpose. Messages are collected, edited into digests and distributed as the volume of mail dictates (generally twice a week). All messages regarding hardware for IBM PCs, PC and compatibles and software are welcomed; messages on other topics will not be run. In addition, two topics are taboo and are routinely edited out: (1) self promotion of products for sale, and (2) anything about copy protection. An archive of back issues and a program library are available to those with FTP access (essentially anyone on the Internet). Digests are archived at WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL in PD2: in format. Digests from September 1982 through the current issue are available by ANONYMOUS FTP login. A library of free software in binary and source code form is maintained at SIMTEL20 in directory PD1: and PD2:. A list of all MS-DOS programs available from WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL is contained in PD1:FILES.IDX. Donations of source code are welcomed. Donated programs must be truly free and public domain, with no fee or contribution required or requested, and no license agreement. To donate a program to the library, send a description of the program along with a copy of the source code to INFO-IBMPC-REQUEST@WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL. Files may be FTP'ed by logging in to the SIMTEL20 FTP server with username ANONYMOUS, password GUEST. (Although GUEST is a perfectly good password, a password of is preferred.) For those subscribers without Internet FTP access, a file transfer mechanism has been set up with RPIECS.bitnet.

Moderator: Christine M. Gianone KERMIT@CUVMA.BITNET info-labview@pica.army.mil Info-LabVIEW is an internet mailing list for the discussion of the use of National Instruments' LabVIEW package for the Apple Macintosh. LabVIEW is a graphical software system for developing high-performance scientific and engineering applications. LabVIEW acquires data from IEEE-488 (GPIB), RS-232/422 and modular (VXI or CAMAC) instruments and plug-in data acquisition boards. LabVIEW programs, called "virtual instruments" (VIs), are created using icons, instead of conventional, text-based code. A VI consists of a front panel and a block diagram. The front panel (with knobs, switches, graphs, and so on) is the user interface. The block diagram, which is the executable code, consists of icons that operate on data connected by wires that pass data between them. [I swiped this description from National Instruments' promotional blurbs] The list is being run as a simple redistribution of all submitted messages. To post to the list, send your mail to . All administrative issues should go to . FTP archives are on caesar.pica.army.mil [129.139.160.200], /pub/labview. Coordinator: Tom Coradeschi INFO-LAW@BRL.MIL Interest in computers and law.

Coordinator: Mike Muuss INFO-M2@UCF1VM.CC.UCF.EDU A discussion list for the Modula-2 programming language. Modula-2 is a language by Niklaus Wirth which extends the Pascal foundation by providing an updated statement syntax (generalized LOOP, EXIT, RETURN, no GOTO), separate compilation with a module (compilation unit) broken into specification and implementation parts with importing and exporting of objects, controlled machine level access, and concurrent programming and coroutines. Modula-2 has most of the power of Ada but is small enough that excellent full implementations exist for CP/M 80. Contributions may be sent to INFO-M2@ucf1vm.Bitnet (from the US) or to INFO-M2@db0tui11.Bitnet (from Europe); these are both entry points for the same list. Currrent messages are archived on host WSMR.SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL in file MODULA-2-ARCHIV.TXT Older messages are in file MODULA-2.ARCHIV.ymmdd SIMTEL20 supports ANONYMOUS login for those with FTP access to the Internet. Log files will be kept on a monthly basis. BitNet users can subscribe by sending the following command to LISTSERV@UCF1VM: SUB INFO-M2 Your_full_name where Your_full_name is your real name, not your userid; for example: SUB INFO-M2 John Doe Non-BitNet users can subscribe by sending the SUB command as the text/body of a message to LISTSERV@UCF1VM.CC.UCF.EDU Coordinator: UCF Postmaster Thomas Habernoll INFO-MAC@SUMEX-AIM.STANFORD.EDU Network interest group for the Apple Macintosh computer. This list is SUMEX's contribution to the community of research and instructional developers and users of the Macintosh; all submissions of messages and programs in this spirit are welcome. For those sites with FTP access to SUMEX-AIM, archives for INFO-MAC are kept under {SUMEX-AIM}/info-mac/digest/infomacvM-NNN, where M is the volume number and NNN is the digest number. These numbers have little to no bearing on reality. Programs submitted to the bulletin board, along with documentation files and other references are also stored in the info-mac directory. With FTP access as user "anonymous" and any password, you can bring these files over to your host and download them to your Macintosh. "Usenet" and some of the other networks that copy info-mac will see sources redistributed at the time they are mentioned in the digest distributions. Messages to INFO-MAC@SUMEX-AIM.STANFORD.EDU are scanned to filter out any list requests, questions previously answered, pure speculation or opinion, or message obviously not in line with the stated purpose of the list. All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to INFO-MAC-REQUEST@SUMEX-AIM.STANFORD.EDU. Due to the size of this list, INFO-MAC only sends to relays, i.e. addresses such as INFOMAC@yoursite.whatever which then distribute it locally. Please check with your local gurus to gain access your local relay. Moderators: Bill Lipa Jon Pugh INFO-MACH@CS.CMU.EDU This mailing list exists for the purpose of discussing issues related to the Mach operating system. Mach is a UNIX BSD4.3 compatible operating system based on a message passing architecture that incorporates such features as multiprocessor support, lightweight tasking, external pagers, and a machine independent vm system.

Mail archives are kept on host WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL as TOPS20 mail files named yymm.n-TXT, where n starts with one and increments by one into another file as each file reached 150 disk pages. To conserve disk space, all the mail files in the archive, except for the current year, are individually compressed. The compressed files have the suffix -Z as part of the filetype field; they should be renamed to have the suffix .Z (uppercase Z) when transfered to a Unix system so the uncompress program will find them. The current month's mail is still kept in INFO-MICRO-ARCHIV.TXT. The archives are stored in directory: PD2: Archive files are available via ANONYMOUS FTP for those with TCP/IP access to the Internet. Many megabytes of public domain software are kept in the program archives. For a description of these archives, request a copy of the "archive blurb" from INFO-MICRO-REQUEST@WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL.

Coordinator: Glen Overby Info-MM@COLUMBIA.EDU BUG-MM@COLUMBIA.EDU The Info-MM/Bug-MM mailing lists are a way for Columbia-MM maintainers and sites running MM to communicate, distribute patches, get bug reports, send comments, suggestions, enhancements, etc. Columbia-MM is a UNIX mail manager program based on the TOPS-20 MM program running on Digital Equipment Corporation DEC20 systems. Columbia-MM is written in C using the CCMD (TOPS-20 COMND Jsys in C) package developed at Columbia University, and thus has command/keyword/filename completion (on ESC or TAB), context sensitive help on "?", command history and command line editing. MM is compatible with various other mail programs, and has hooks for adding more in the future. MM has support for several mail file formats: "mtxt" which is the MM-20 format on DEC20's, "mbox" used by UNIX mail(1), and "babyl" the format of Gnuemacs rmail mode. Support for mh(1), pop (post office protocol), and usenet news are planned for the future. Sources are available via ANONYMOUS FTP from CUNIXF.CC.COLUMBIA.EDU [128.59.40.130] in the mm directory.

To subscribe to this list, send an Email message to info-prograph-request@grove.iup.edu We aren't using any automated subscription process, so no special syntax is required. Just say you want to subscribe, and I'll add your name to the list. Prograph, for those who have not seen it before, is an icon-based object-oriented programming language, published by TGS Systems, Halifax, Nova Scotia. My only connection with TGS is that I own Prograph, and am beta-testing the 2.5 version, and that they have subscribed to the list. Prograph includes an application "shell", which makes it easy to quickly generate prototypes of your application. Unlike other application generators, such as Serius Developer or AppMaker, Prograph is a complete and self-contained programming language, with full access to the Mac Toolbox (including System 7 calls). The versatile Interpreter lets you quickly test and debug your code, actually allowing you to add new code *while your app is running*! Once you have your application debugged, the Compiler lets you turn it into a standalone, double-clickable Mac application, which you are free to distribute as you see fit (no licensing fees are required).

Coordinator: Jan Snoek INGRAFX on LISTSERV@PSUVM INGRAFX is a listserv devoted to the interdisciplinary areas of cartography, information graphics and scientific visualization. As owner of the list, I would like to invite all those who have an interest in the broad range of images known as "graphics" (maps, photographs, drawings and information or quantitative graphics) to consider signing up. Please do not take these requirements too formally! Ideally, the discussion will be uninhibited and free-flowing. Candidate topics for discussion might be; the relation of maps to graphics as a whole (are they different kinds of representation?); the philosophy of graphic representation (what theories are there of graphic representations, and how does a graphic "represent" segments of the world); how can we use graphics in education; to what extent does "graphicacy" matter in today's world; what is the relationship between academic or scientific graphics, and graphics in the popular media; can we or should we accrue rules for "good" graphics; are there graphic variables or elements that are basic to all graphics, and can these be used in animation? In general our aim is for an informal discussion which is cross-disciplinary, and about graphics. ***How to Join in*** Curious to see what's going on so far? Why not sign up now? Sign up in the usual way for LISTSERVs, i.e., send mail to LISTSERV@PSUVM on BITNET or LISTSERV@PSUVM.PSU.EDU on Internet with the following command in the TEXT: SUB INGRAFX your firstname and last name Once you are a subscriber you can retrieve any files that have been archived on the listserv, including the monthly discussion logs, and other files of interest. To see what is there, either TELL or send a email note to LISTSERV AT PSUVM or LISTSERV AT PSUVM.PSU.EDU with the command INDEX INGRAFX . Once you have decided on a file you can retrieve it by using the GET command. E.g., TELL LISTSERV AT PSUVM GET 'File name', or GET 'Another file'. Post by sending email to ingrafx@psuvm. Owner: "Jeremy Crampton" or ***Future Discussions on the List*** As a geographer/cartographer, I am particularly interested in getting fellow cartographers to join in the debate. Especially students. However, one of the goals of the list is to broaden cartographic debate to include consideration of the many forms and roles of graphics in today's highly visual world. To this end, the list will be interdisciplinary. It will seek to include people from the worlds of information graphics (see the work by Edward Tufte for one position on this), scientific visualization, and the media (_USA Today_ style graphics?...) To my knowledge there does not yet exist such an interdisciplinary forum for the discussion of graphics as a whole. I would also like to have people share their graphics. This can be done by compressing and converting a file to binary form. I do not encourage posting of these files to the list, but those people interested in swapping graphics should describe what they have, and what they'd like to see, on the INGRAFX list. Transactions could then take place over private email, with a list of available graphics being held in our archives. Reviews, either of software, books or articles on graphics, are also especially encouraged. If you have been asked to write one and can't wait to see it in "print," send it to INGRAFX (retaining your copyright). We aim to create an informal environment for the discussion of all issues related to graphics. This might also include discussion of ideas you are working on for future articles, or research projects announcements of job openings, interesting graphics you have discovered, or just general commentary with a graphic flavor. jeremy ele@psuvm.psu.edu INMYLIFE@WKUVX1.BITNET Beatles era popular culture.

The list began as an informal discussion of two papers by Robert A. Kraft (Pennsylvania) but quickly blossomed into an international forum, with participants in North America, Europe, Australia, and The Middle East. The Philonic and Josephan corpora are extensive enough that they invite all sorts of analysis -- from literary, historical, and philosophical perspectives, to name a few. There is also considerable interest, among participants, in the social realities that lie behind these texts. Prospective members are warmly welcomed. (The discussion assumes a significant background in first-century Judaism and also the ability to read Greek.)

A special effort will be made to promote an international forum for pedagogical issues important to higher education involving teaching with technology, and especially with connectivity and networking. A goal is to create a forum for the discussion of computing and other technology that can be used to promote learning. Topics for discussion may involve teaching and training; collaboration; partnerships among learners, faculty or teachers, and other interested persons in the educational community; and research that reflect these interests. The decade of the 1980s was characterized by the _personal_ computer, and development of individual product- ivity. The focus of the IPCT-L, as we move toward the 21st century, is that _interpersonal_ computing and technology will tie persons together throughout the world -- to share ideas and solve problems. Besides creating a forum for the topics of interest noted above, another interest of the CTT is to publish a scholarly, refereed international journal. To that end, the IPCT-L will develop a subscription list and act as a resource to develop the community necessary to review articles and recommend editorial policies as these publishing goals move forward.

ISO10646%JHUVM.BITNET@VM1.NODAK.EDU ISO10646 on LISTSERV@JHUVM Purpose: To serve as a clearing house for information on and discussion of multi-byte coded-character-set issues. The ISO 10646 draft and Unicode draft standards represent two different approaches to encoding the world's characters into a multi-byte code. Background: People are looking at multi-byte codes as a way to solve many of the problems we are experiencing with single-byte, 7-bit and 8-bit codes. Although most of us do not need all 191 of the characters in the ISO 8859-1 character set (repertoire), we frequently need characters outside of this set; for example, bullets or nice quotation marks for professional looking documents, symbols for mathematics and science, etc. The reason for developing multi-byte codes is that processing ONE multi-byte code appears easier than several single-byte codes. As of March, 1990, two coding schemes have emerged. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Subcommittee 2, Working Group 2 (SC2/WG2) has developed the ISO 10646 Multi-Octet Code. It is now a "draft proposed" standard (two levels removed from being an international standard). The ISO working group has been working on this project for the last 6 years and it has been subject to unusually wide review for a proposed standard. The other draft standard is the result of the work of a consortium of U.S. companies, mostly from the west coast. It is called Unicode. Both of these draft standards enable the worlds communication (newspapers and magazines) and business characters, ideographs, and symbols to be encoded for storage and communication between computers. However, each uses a different approach to making the inevitable tradeoffs.

It is a multilevel, interdisciplinary, action-based program that enables students to apply what they have learned towards the successful "launch," "orbit," and "splashdown" of an extended space simulation. Throughout the simulation, student astronauts communicate with Mission Control technicians (also students) via 2-way radio, modem-equipped computers, and/or VCR cameras and monitors. Inside the habitat, astronauts perform experiments, work on previously recorded lessons, engage in simulated docking maneuvers, retrieve and repair satellites, prepare meals.

It is intended to provide a meeting place in cyberspace in which to advance our understanding of the processes of learning, and to share personal experiences and practical suggestions to help in the great adventure we share with our children. Philosophy: Our philosophy is that humans as a species have an innate ability to learn, and that current methods of "teaching", "education" and "schooling" serve primarily to thwart or diminish that ability. We seek to learn how we can best reaffirm and enhance that ability in ourselves and, above all else, in our children. As our spiritual and religious backgrounds are varied, we affirm that we will agree to disagree on these issues. In particular, we will not attempt to convince others of the rightness of our particular ethical or moral stand, whether it is motivated by religion, personal belief or societal standards. Such discussions should be conducted elsewhere. We find inspiration in the writings of such people as John Holt, and in the ongoing dialogue in such periodicals as Growing Without Schooling.

Il constitue un forum pour les chercheurs travaillant sur le Francais mais n'est en aucun cas restreint a ce seul champ d'etude. Le bulletin est parraine par l'Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL) et l'Association for Computers and the Humanities (ACH). Ce double parrainage reflete l'interet croissant des linguistes informaticiens pour, a cote de domaines plus traditionnels, des domaines tels que la lexicographie informatique, l'etude et l'utilisation de corpus, les modeles statistiques, etc., qui sont depuis longtemps centraux dans l'ACH. Le bulletin comporte a l'heure actuelle pres de 400 abonnes dans 25 pays. Il est edite par Jean Veronis (GRTC-CNRS, France) et Pierre Zweigenbaum (DIAM-INSERM, France).

Its goal is to disseminate calls for papers, conference and seminar announcements, requests for software, corpora, and various data, project descriptions, discussions on technical topics, etc. The list is primarily French-speaking, but many items are circulated in English. It provides a forum for scholars working on French, but it is by no means restricted to this field. The list is sponsored by the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL) and the Association for Computers and the Humanities (ACH). This joint sponsorship reflects the fact that in addition to more traditional concerns, computational linguists have a growing interest in areas such as computational lexicography, study and use of corpora, statistical models, etc., which have been traditionally central to ACH. Currently the list consists of about 400 members in 25 countries. It is moderated by Jean Veronis (GRTC-CNRS, France) and Pierre Zweigenbaum (DIAM-INSERM, France).

Owner: Marty Hoag LymeNet-L@Lehigh.EDU [Last Update 3/93] Lyme Disease is now the fastest growing infectious disease in the United States. In 10 short years, this little known bacterial infection has claimed half a million victims and the number of new patients continues to spiral upward with no relief in sight. It is estimated that in 1991, 100,000 Americans contracted this dangerous disease. If left untreated, LD can cause permanent nerve, musculoskeletal and cardiac damage. Unfortunately, many in the medical and political arenas have not given this epidemic much thought. Self appointed experts in the academic community have declared that LD can always be cured with short courses of simple antibiotics. However, as the number of cases rise, doctors on the front lines are discovering that LD is more serious that previously suspected, requiring longer treatment therapies and more complex combinations of medicines. The battle lines have been drawn. And the battles continue at LD conferences, and in the various State legislatures where insurance companies, terrified at the high cost of LD, are attempting to short change patients. Estimates show that the average cost of treatment for chronic LD patients ranges from $60,000 to $100,000 per patient. MAILING LIST: To keep up with the latest developments, including new treatment protocols, research news and political events, we introduce the Lyme Disease Electronic Mail Network. LymeNet, in association with the Lyme Disease Network of New Jersey, Inc., with provide you with a periodic newsletter with the latest information. All you need is an Internet-accessible e-mail address. INTERESTED INDIVIDUALS INCLUDE: * LD patients * Friends or family of LD patients, who may wish to forward the newsletter to an LD patient * Interested members of the medical community * Interested members of the press To subscribe, send a memo to Internet address listserv@Lehigh.EDU In the body type: subscribe LymeNet-L Owner: Marc Gabriel machi386@cs.cmu.edu A group for discussion of Mach 2.5 and 3.0 on Intel 386/486 architectures.

Hopefully the easier access of an Internet-based list will promote even better communication between Macintosh developers of commercial, in-house, and shareware software. In addition, this list will move some of the more technical topics out from lists devoted to user-oriented issues. I will be moderating the list remotely from Wayne State University. I'm not a Mac programming expert per se. But I am one of those sadistic indiviuals who, convinced life alone wasn't handing me enough problems, decided to take up Mac programming for the sheer fun of it. Luckily I found a job where they'd pay me to have fun (actually I'm a System's Analyst but they give me in-house programming time for good behavior). The list will be moderated in a digest format (Info-mac style). I'll collect submissions into one digest and crank one out every day or two as traffic dictates. If the initial membership is any indication, this list should have heavy traffic. 30 people have subscribed already, with 40 more inquiries, without even having officially announced the list. The focus of MacProg will be to discuss mainstream language coding techniques. What's a mainstream language? C & Pascal principally, although other languages like LISP, Prologue, Fortran, Basic, HyperTalk, and application scripting are certainly welcome. Besides Q&A, I'd like to have other features running. For example, I'd like participants to report errors in documentation from Apple or other sources. There's been times when I've felt like terminating execution of my program with a 16lb., chrome-plated sledge hammer, simply because of an error I was getting caused by errant specifications from Apple. Also I'd like participants to offer quick reviews on books they've read, seminars they've attended, or interactive courses they've used which have been particularly good or bad. Since no one can ever know everything about Mac programming, and since system compatibility is a constantly moving target, sources of programming information are important for beginners and experts alike. So, if you think you'd like to use this informative service for Macintosh developers send mail to LISTSERV@WUVMD.WUSTL.EDU or LISTSERV@WUVMD.BITNET with the following command in the BODY of the mail: SUBSCRIBE MACPROG your name Special thanks to Eric Oberle of Washington University for setting this all up on his mainframe. But what do you mean when you say I have to pay the electric bill? Owner and Moderator: Bill Brandt mac-security@eclectic.com A mailing list for people interested in Macintosh security. This can be used to: - Discuss existing security problems in various Macintosh applications. - Discuss security applications, hardware, and solutions. - Discuss potential problems and their solutions. - Announcements of new Macintosh viruses and virus control software. (Discussion of viruses in depth should be carried out on virus specific mailing lists.) - Just about anything else related to Macintosh security and access control. With the arrival of System 7.0 and its wealth of information sharing facilities, Macintosh security has entered a new era.

On addressing users at Interleaf: Note that we have a registered domain in the uucp zone, and you can find us in the uucp maps. "user@ILEAF.COM" is equivalent to "ileaf!user@EDDIE.MIT.EDU" (10 Canal Park), and "user@HQ.ILEAF.COM" is equivalent to "leafusa!user@UUNET.UU.NET" (25 First Street). Note that, at least in the hq.ileaf.com subdomain, you can mail to most users at Interleaf via a first initial + last name alias (for example, I am reachable as "sfreedman@hq.ileaf.com"). Finally, using explicit uucp paths inside Interleaf is unnecessary, since the alias files on our gateways should resolve the user anyway.

The name of the new list is MEDSTU-L and initially, the list will be unmoderated with subscriptions open. Due to a present limitation on disk storage, notebooks will be kept for a period of 30 days. The impetus for this list was mail I sent out several weeks ago soliciting medical students with e-mail accounts to exchange mail with medical students here. As a result of that solicitation, I found that while there are many medical students with e-mail accounts, most of them are unaware of others with e-mail accounts. Thus, this list. While it is an open list and therefore there is no way of verifying the subscription request, the two list owners respectfully request that the list be limited to students in medical schools. To subscribe to the list send e-mail to LISTSERV@UNMVM and in the body of the message say SUB MEDSTU-L your_first_name your_last_name If you have any questions, please let us know.

The goal of this mailing list is to facilitate discussion on the following topics: - what can we learn from existing multicast and broadcast work in other environments (local area networks, TCP/IP Internets, XTP, ST-II, etc.) - what can we do to facilitate quality international standards (ISO and CCITT, especially) for multicast data transmission To subscribe to the multicast mailing list, send a message to Multicast-Request@Arizona.EDU with your full name and preferred electronic mail address. Archives of the list and a database of contributed documents are also available on Arizona.EDU. List Maintainer: Joel Snyder (Multicast-Request@Arizona.EDU) MUS@TMC.EDU masscomp@SOMA.BCM.TMC.EDU Masscomp Users Society (MUS) mailing list; people who are interested in the Masscomp line of computers are invited to join. All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to mus-request@TMC.EDU. Coordinator: Stan Barber MUSEUM-L on LISTSERV@UNMVM.BITNET [Last Updated 12-October-1991] Museum-L is a general interest dicussion list for museum professionals and others interested in museum related issues. It is hoped that an open discussion by those who work in exhibits, education, collection, or curatorial positions can foster an understanding among those who work in museums. It is also hoped that the discussion can share ideas and information regarding new methods of interpreting information for visitors, both high tech and low tech. To subscribe, send a one line message to LISTSERV@UNMVM.BITNET: subscribe MUSEUM-L Your_Full_Name If I can be of further assistance, please feel free to contact me. Owner: john chadwick chadwick@unmb (bitnet) chadwick@bootes.unm.edu (internet) music-research%prg.oxford.ac.uk@NSS.CS.UCL.AC.UK The Music-Research electronic mail redistribution list was established after a suggestion made at a meeting in Oxford in July 1986, to provide an effective and fast means of bringing together musicologists, music analysts, computer scientists, and others working on applications of computers in music research. Initially, the list was established for people whose chief interests concern computers and their applications to - music representation systems - information retrieval systems for musical scores - music printing - music analysis - musicology and ethnomusicology - tertiary music education - databases of musical information The following areas are NOT the principal concern of this list, although overlapping subjects may well be interesting: - primary and secondary education - sound generation techniques - composition This group is gatewayed to the USENET group "comp.music", but postings to comp.music are not included in the digest. On-line archives are not yet available, but copies will be mailed on request by Brad Rubenstein . All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to music-research-request%prg.oxford.ac.uk@NSS.CS.UCL.AC.UK or UUCP ...!ukc!ox-prg!music-research-request. Coordinator: Stephen Page US Redistributor: Brad Rubenstein {most US backbones}!sun!bartok!bradr (UUCP) mutex@stolaf.edu Mutex a mailing list for the discussion of MuTeX and MusicTeX related issues. To be added to the list send mail to: Owner: mutex-request@stolaf.edu MVSTCPIP@VM.USC.EDU MMVSTCPIP@USCVM.BITNET Mailing list for discussion of MVS TCP/IP implementations. The MVSTCPIP list is open to discussion of any MVS TCP/IP implementations, however, discussion specific to the IBM MVS TCP/IP product occurs mostly on IBMTCP-L@CUNYVM.CUNY.EDU. BitNet users should subscribe themselves by sending the following command to LISTSERV@USCVM.BITNET or LISTSERV@VM.USC.EDU: SUBSCRIBE MVSTCPIP Your_Full_Name where "Your_Full_Name" is your real name, not your login Id. To unsubscribe, send the command: UNSUBSCRIBE MVSTCPIP Non-BitNet users can subscribe or unsubscribe by sending one of the above commands to LISTSERV@VM.USC.EDU in the text/body of the message. Problems accessing the list may be addressed to the Coordinator. Coordinator: Leonard D. Woren NA-NET [Last Update 4/93] This mail facility was created to allow numerical analysts (na) an easy method of communicating with one another. The main advantage of the NA-NET is uniformity of addressing. All mail is addressed to the Internet host "na-net.ornl.gov" at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Hence, members of the NA-NET do not need to remember complicated addresses or even where a member is currently located. As long as moving members change their e-mail address in the NA-NET (see feature 5 below) everything works smoothly. The NA-NET is running on the same machine that serves netlib@ornl.gov. Netlib is a separate facility that distributes mathematical software via electronic mail. For more information on netlib send the one-line message "send index" to netlib@ornl.gov NA-NET includes features, such as auto-joining and auto-address changes. We have also added a whitepages directory service to the NA-NET. It allows users to find out more information about other members. The NA-NET originated at Stanford University by Gene Golub. Much of the software we've used up to now was written by Mark Kent. The Oak Ridge NA-NET operation will be under the direction of Jack Dongarra. Bill Rosener of the University of Tennessee has rewritten the software. Cleve Moler will continue to edit the NA-NET News Digest. NA-NET News Digest Any mail sent to "na.digest@na-net.ornl.gov" will be considered for distribution to all members of the NA-NET. About once a week the Editor of the NA-NET News Digest will go over the messages which have queued up, pick out the ones that are thought to be of general interest to the numerical analysis and mathematical software community, combine them in a News Digest format, and mail the Digest to everyone on the mailing list. Joining the NA-NET To join the NA-NET send mail to "na.join@na-net.ornl.gov". In the message body specify the following three fields. Lastname: Firstname: E-mail: The values can be specified in any order. The subject line of your message is ignored. If there is a member of NA-NET with the same lastname, then a message will be sent back to you. If this happens try prepending your first initial to your last name. In this case the "key" which identifies you will not be your lastname. See Appendix A for an example on how to join the na-net. Removing membership To remove your membership from the NA-NET send mail to "na.remove@na-net.ornl.gov". In the message body specify the following two fields. Lastname: Firstname: The values can be specified in any order. Again the subject line of your message is ignored. A message will be sent to both the deleted address and the address making the request informing you that your name has been removed. NAC@VM1.NODAK.EDU NAC@NDSUVM1.BITNET The "NAC" list is a BITNET/NetNorth/EARN Redistribution list for Usenet Newsgroup news.announce.conferences. "news.announce.conferences" is used to post calls for papers and conference announcements. Contributions should be submitted to mcmi!news-announce-conferences@uunet.uu.net, news-announce-conferences@mcmi.uucp, NAC@VM1.NODAK.EDU.,or NAC@NDSUVM1.BITNET (the list is MODERATED. Submissions to NAC@NDSUVM1 (NAC@VM1.NODAK.EDU) will be forwarded to the Moderator). Contributions sent to the list are automatically archived. You can obtain a list of the available archive files by sending an "INDEX NAC" command to LISTSERV@NDSUVM1 or LISTSERV@VM1.NODAK.EDU. These files can then be retrieved by means of a "GET NAC filetype" command, or using the database search facilities of LISTSERV. Send an "INFO DATABASE" command for more information on the latter. The command may be in the BODY or TEXT of the mail, NOT the subject, or may be sent interactively via TELL or SEND on BitNet/EARN/NetNorth. You may also obtain copies of the list notebooks via anonymous FTP to VM1.NODAK.EDU (192.33.18.30), userid ANONYMOUS, any password. Once validated do a CD LISTARCH and DIR NAC.* to see the notebooks available. The file system is NOT hierarchical so you must do a CD ANONYMOUS if you want to return to the "root". You may subscribe to NAC by sending the command: SUB NAC Your_full_name (eg. SUB NAC Jane Doe) to LISTSERV@NDSUVM1 or LISTSERV@VM1.NODAK.EDU.

We ask: what are the new paradigms in education and how can they be implemented. For instance: - How is technology changing the way we view education? - What effects will cooperative/collaborative strategies have on teaching and learning? - Does the so-called "information age" change the way we view our responsibilities as educators? - Artificial intelligence research is changing our view of how we know things. How does this affect education? - How can we reduce dependency in education and foster independent learning? There are many individuals working in these areas, each with a conviction that education will change. This list attempts to bring together every teacher, student, researcher, librarian, multimedia expert and information specialist interested in educational change -- Kindergarten through post-graduate. You are encouraged to: - Submit summaries of or commentary on published articles and books which explore the frontiers of teaching and learning. - Submit in-progress papers or abstracts of those papers for comment. - Share the results of your experiments with teaching and learning. - Ask thought-provoking questions about the future of education and the environments in which it takes place. - Recruit interested parties to this listserv, regardless of their status in education, industry or government.

Coordinator: Steve Strassmann nis@cerf.net [Last Update 11/92] Network Information Services Announcements List CERFnet has established a mailing list to serve network information service providers and end users. In a nutshell, the nis@cerf.net list will be a group effort (in true Internet style) to concentrate network information services (nis) announcements onto one list for everyone's use. A few dozen individuals around the Internet will each be monitoring a specific source (mailing list, news group, list serve) and sending the information to CERFnet. We will serve as the moderator, forwarding pertinent submissions to the entire readership of the list, omitting duplicates. In this way, individuals can receive regular nis information even if they choose not to read discussion lists. This should prove especially valuable for end users in specific disciplines who are not in the networking business, but are using the network as tool and a resource. Advantages: * everyone doesn't have to read every mailing list to stay current * volume will stay low (it won't be a discussion list) * pointers will be provided for more info and discussion What you can do: * To subscribe: send mail to listserv@cerf.net with the following command in the body of message: subscribe nis (Note the difference in format from other LISTSERV servers) * to volunteer to monitor a source: send mail to nis@cerf.net * to submit an item of interest for the list to the moderator, comments, suggestions, helpful hints, etc. send mail to nis@cerf.net Contact: Susan Calcari (619) 455-3900 Director, Network Information Services FAX: (619) 455-3990 CERFnet P.O.

The Moderator's interests are primarily in: Knowledge Representation Natural Language Understanding Discourse Understanding Philosophy of Language Plan Recognition Computational Linguistics Contributions are also welcome on topics such as: Cognitive Psychology (as related to NL/KR) Human Perception (same) Linguistics Machine Translation Computer and Information Science (as may be used to implement various Logic Programming (same) NL systems) Contributions may be anything from tutorials to speculation. In particular, the following are sought: Puzzles and Unsolved Problems Anecdotes, Jokes, and Poems Abstracts Reviews Lab Descriptions Research Overviews Work Planned or in Progress Half-Baked Ideas Conference Announcements Conference Reports Bibliographies History of NL/KR Queries and Requests Address Changes (Bindings) This list is in some sense a spin-off of the AIList, and as such, a certain amount of overlap is expected. The primary concentration of this list should be NL and KR, that is, natural language (be it understanding, generation, recognition, parsing, semantics, pragmatics, etc.) and how we should represent knowledge (aquisition, access, completeness, etc. are all valid issues). Topics deemed to be outside the general scope of this list will be forwarded to AIList (or other more appropriate list) or rejected. Readers are warned not to submit any information that is export-controlled or classified. All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to NL-KR-REQUEST@cs.rpi.edu.

This list is not restricted to BITNet (CREN) nodes only, and is intended to cover all of the various networks. The audience of the NODEINFO list is expected to include people from many backgrounds - from node administrators and postmasters to list owners (LISTSERV or otherwise) - and anyone else interested in appropriate NODEINFO issues. As such, people need no longer subscribe to other lists to discuss a topic which only sometimes appears, and so they not only now have a list that is more on topic, but they also have one place to receive such information from, which eliminates the "sifting" through postings that some people must now do with the other lists. Issues of a technical nature (other than those contained in an explanation of a problem) are probably best discussed on the various lists that exist for the specific software involved.

PJAL is founded on the principles of: - opposition to discrimination based on race, sex, age, religious belief and practice, and sexuality; support for human rights and freedom of expression - belief in economic and environmental justice: the right of all people to adequate food, shelter, and quality of life for themselves and their children - support for individual rights to privacy, including a woman's choice to have an abortion - support for the resolution of conflict through negotiation; opposition to violence, military culture, and occupation - support for the self-determination and security of Israelis and Palestinians, including self-determination for Palestinian residents of territories occupied by Israel in 1967, and recognition of the Palestine Liberation Organization as the legitimate representative of the Palestinian people. PJAL is an outgrowth of the Progressive Jewish Mailing List (PJML), an unmoderated discussion forum for progressive Jews. PJAL is a moderated list, which means that list moderators reserve the right to determine the direction and integrity of submissions posted to PJAL.

In a broad sense, this includes virtually anything dealing with economics. The explicit purpose of Pol-Econ is to provide timely interchange between subscribers, to provide a forum where interesting questions can be addressed within the context of interactive exchange between many individuals, to discuss the evolution and application of Political Economy, to announce professional meetings, calls for papers, etc., and to provide partial tables of contents for current periodicals. As is the case on all unmoderated lists, the discussion and topics are only limited by the participation and interest of its subscribers. Subscribers are welcome to take an active role by posting to Pol-Econ or an inactive role by monitoring the list. Although not necessary for participation, it shall be assumed that subscribers are basically familiar with technical economic jargon. To subscribe to Pol-Econ, please send a MAIL message to: LISTSERV@SHSU.BITNET The body of this MAIL message should be one line and contain the words: SUBSCRIBE Pol-Econ LISTSERV@SHSU.BITNET is not supported by the conventional interactive VM-based LISTSERV, but is instead entirely MAIL oriented.

Coordinator: Jerzy Pawlowski POLI-SCI@RUTGERS.EDU POLI-SCI is a spinoff from the HUMAN-NETS discussion list. Shortly after the November 1980 election, HUMAN-NETS began to discuss the impact that electronic communications had on the election. As this discussion continued, it lost its narrow focus on electronic communications and began to consider the election in general, how elections are won and lost, and the nature of the electoral college. The growth of these discussions, and their spawning of related discussions, indicated that a separate discussion list was merited and POLI-SCI was installed. Since then POLI-SCI has begun to consider other topics including the history of the Carter and Nixon presidencies, the Iranian hostage crisis, etc. (with a little less dignity, the list might be characterized as a permanent distributed political bull session). Archived digest messages are stored on RUTGERS in: mail.txt and other files in the directory All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to POLI-SCI-REQUEST@RUTGERS.EDU.

Coordinator: Jan Scheutjens POPULATION-BIOLOGY Population Biology is a synthesis of population ecology and population genetics, pursuing a unified theory to explain the structure, functioning and evolution of populations of living beings. Such populations are very complex systems, exhibiting a variety of phenomena that we stil do not master. Just to quote a famous example, multiannual density cycles (e.g. in lemmings) have not received a satisfactory expalnation, despite of decades of debated studies and speculations. Population Biology is a very active field, encompassing such diverse approaches as tenacious, harsh field work to track long term demographic and genetic fluctuations, or sophisticated conversations with a computer about strange attractors possibly causing chaos in the density fluctuations. Topics that can be discussed include: ecology, population genetics, systematics, evolution, morphometry, interspecific competition, sociobiology, mathematical modelling, population regulation, pest control, speciation, chromosomal evolution, social behaviour, statistical methodology in population study, population management of endangered species, applications of molecular biology techniques, etc., and, last but not least, your own topic. There is no restriction on the species: viruses, protokaryotes, plants, animals (including man), mythic or extinct species, computer- simulated species... Technical problems, book reviews, meeting annoucements and so on are also welcome.

Submissions from all sub-fields of political science as well as related disciplines are encouraged. The list is not intended to serve as a public forum for debate over current issues in politics, as other lists already fill that niche. Rather it is intended to provide an opportunity for political scientists to present their ideas and ongoing research for discussion, to consider the directions in which the discipline is advancing, and to encourage the dissemination of new concepts in research and teaching. In addition to ongoing discussions, the list editors would like to post announcements of job openings and upcoming conferences.

Its main purpose is to provide a medium through which graduate students in the field of psychology can communicate. If you are a student studying in a graduate-level psychology program, you are invited to join this list. It is asked that conversation topics be relevant to being a graduate student in psychology. As you probably can see, this is a very open category and not too rigorously defined. Virtually, anything goes except junk-mail advertisements. The list will not be moderated and subscriptions are open. (Junk mail has been a terrible problem for many users in the past). Corporations, businesses, agencies, publishers, etc. are not invited to the list. There are a few ways to subscribe to this list. 1. If your system is part of Bitnet and a VM system, you may do this by using the interactive command by typing at the R; (prompt)- TELL LISTSERV AT UOTTAWA SUB PSYCGRAD Yourfirstname Yourlastname (Don't forget to capitalize and lower case Yourfirstname and Yourlastname). 2.

Q methodology is a broad approach to the study of subjectivity, and includes issues of theory, conceptualization, measurement, and analysis. Topics for discussion may therefore range from the Q-sort technique to Q factor analysis to broader concerns about the nature of subjectivity. Q methodology has been applied in psychology, communication, political science, advertising, education, law, health and medicine, and many others fields. Discussion may therefore be expected to be diverse with respect to illustration while unified with respect to methodological principles. (Q-Method began March 1, 1992 and succeeds QTemp@KentVM, which was established as a temporary list on January 14, 1991.) Archives of Q-Method back issues (including those previously stored under QTemp) can be listed by sending the command INDEX Q-METHOD to LISTSERV@KENTVM or LISTSERV@KENTVM.KENT.EDU in the BODY of e-mail. To subscribe, send the following command to LISTSERV@KENTVM or LISTSERV@KENTVM.KENT.EDU in the BODY of mail or in an interactive message: SUB Q-METHOD your full name where "your full name" is your name.

QUALITY@PUCC.PRINCETON.EDU is the electronic communications network for discussing TQM in the manufacturing and service industries. TQM refers to an organization-wide effort to achieve quality. It can be described as a philosophy that is intended to involve everyone in the organization in a quest for quality, with customer satisfaction as the driving force. The topics for discussion on QUALITY are grouped into three areas: 1. Quality Systems: quality control; quality assurance; statistical process control; employee involvement; JIT; & others. 2. Quality Standards: ISO 9000 (European & International); Baldrige (USA); Deming (Japanese); and JIS (Japanese). 3. Case Studies and Research Papers C. Present Activities of QUALITY 1. E-mail Once a user subscribes to QUALITY, (s)he may send mail to the list for distribution to all its members. All members of the mailing list will receive a copy of each piece of mail sent to the list. All of the mail that is received and redistributed by the list is cataloged and stored in a logfile (for example, QUALITY LOG9303) that can be searched or retrieved by individuals with access to QUALITY. In order to prevent "rapid-fire" random e-mail transmissions, all messages are relayed to the QUALITY editor for a once or twice weekly batch mail release in digest form. In addition, each subscriber may disable the automatic QUALITY e-mail transmission to their site and download logfiles of each month's e-mail traffic. 2. QUALITY Filelist Datafiles are available for downloading. The objective is to develop a clearinghouse of information on TQM. To receive the current listing of files, send the following to the LISTSERV (not to QUALITY), with the following: GET QUALITY FILELIST a) File Downloads GET filename filetype For example, GET QUALITY INTRO b) File subscriptions Specialized information or information which is too large for normal e-mail is placed in QUALITY datafiles for downloading by subscribers. A more complete description of the files are contained in the file QUALITY INDEX. You may "subscribe" to a datafile (such as QUALITY INDEX) in one of two ways: 1) automatic downloading of the entire file to your address with each update; 2) automatic notification that the file has been updated. You may terminate this file subscription upon demand. Send the following to the LISTSERV (not to QUALITY) at PUCC: 1) To download one file, one time, without subscribing: GET filename filetype Example, GET QUALITY INDEX 2) To receive automatic file downloads (AFD=automatic file distribution) upon file updates: AFD ADD filename filetype Example: AFD ADD QUALITY INDEX 3) To cancel automatic file downloads: AFD DEL filename filetype 4) To receive automatic file update information (FUI): FUI ADD filename filetype 5) To cancel automatic file update information: FUI DEL filename filetype 6) To receive a list of files to which you are subscribed: AFD LIST or FUI LIST 3.

Requests to be added or deleted should be sent to: RFC-REQUEST@NIC.DDN.MIL ripe-map@nic.eu.net [Last Updated 28-January-1992] This is a mailing list for discussing the issues involved in mapping and visualising computer networks. With the growth in complexity of computer networks, mapping is becoming more important as a visualisation technique and for finding anomalies. There are numerous commericial and public domain tools available but many have serious limitations and are often specific to a single group of protocols. RIPE (Reseau IP Europeen) has set up a working group for studying the problem, this mailing list is intended as a forum for wider discussions. Some of the issues for discussion are listed here, - Auto-discovery, automatically discovering the topology of computer networks. How can this be done, what standards need changing to do this efficiently. - Automatic Layout, Automatically laying out (or untangling) maps so that they look good on in a window or on a piece of paper. - Features, which feaures of existing tools are the best what else is wanted. - Formats, in what format should maps be stored and how should they be distributed. - Model, What database model should be used. Should it be concerned purely with the graphic represention or should it try to model the underlying networks. Different types of map suitable for different purposes, what are the catagories. - Other Tools and Standards, how can existing tools and protocols be tied in with a mapping database. - Symbols, Standard symbols for representing network entities. How should the status of such entities be drawn.

These are not ordinary self-help books that show you how to change your life; these books can help you save it. The understandings given in these four books were received from God in the first person. They are are first so startling, so unlike anything you would expect to hear, that you are apt to become very angry, or flatly incredulous. These understandings have to do with the split that has occurred in each of us between Spirit (male intellect), and Will (female feelings): how this split occurred, and why it has to be healed now, and to go about it. These are not easy books to read, or to fully understand at first reading. But they are very worth your while. When you have completed the series, you will have some understanding of how the Cosmos came into being, who the four parts of the One God are, who Lucifer is, who the created spirits are and how, why, and when they emerged, where you emerged, what went wrong from the very beginning, the roles played by denial, blame, and guilt, why we and the entire creation, including God, are in peril, and whether you want to heal and remain within God, or not. Individuals interested in the concepts of Will, emotional healing, Earth's and Creation's current evolutionary track, and the healing of the Divine Feminine and Masculine (within and without) are encouraged to read the books and join in on the discussion. The service address, to which questions about the list itself and requests to be added to or deleted from it should be directed, are as follows: Will-Request@kether.webo.dg.com You can send mail to the entire list via one of these addresses: Right_Use_of_Will@kether.webo.dg.com Will@kether.webo.dg.com RISK on LISTSERV@UTXVM.CC.UTEXAS.EDU [Last Update 5/93] or LISTSERV@UTXVM.BITNET RISK is an electronic discussion list also known as RISKnet that will allow persons around the world interested in Risk and Insurance Issues to discuss matters of mutual concern.

Venman SBN on LISTSERV@IndyCMS [Last Updated 9/92] or LISTSERV@IndyCMS.IUPUI.EDU SBNnet is an experiment in human networking for computer users in north central Indiana and southwest lower Michigan USA. (SBN is the standard, three character aviation designation for South Bend, Indiana USA, the area's approximate geographic center.) The South Bend area community possesses a significant pool of talent in a wide variety of fields and academic disciplines. SBNnet is an attempt to link that talent pool (making it more accessible to the area's computer-using community at large) and to foster a sense of community as electronic neighbors. It is hoped SBNnet will include participants from area business and industry, higher education, non- profit organizations, and private individuals, joining in from home and work, to help their electronically connected neighbors. SBNnet is a network without dedicated hardware. It uses electronic mail lists to disseminate information of local interest and to facilitate voluntary communication, assistance and cooperation between its participants. Its only requirement for participation is some form of access to e-mail -- connection to academic / research networks such as BITNET / CREN / EARN / NetNorth et al, commercial services such as CompuServe and MCI Mail, uucp mail, etc -- in order to receive and reply to messages from other participants. There is absolutely no cost for participating in SBNnet. The only potential cost is that of an individual's access to electronic mail itself, since that is the medium through which SBNnet operates. SBNnet presently consists of eight distinct components, each a separate e-mail list available by free subscription from ListServ@IndyCMS / ListServ@IndyCMS.IUPUI.Edu: - SBNbirds South Bend area birds. SBNbirds is for news and discussion of birds living in and/or flying through our community. - SBNchat South Bend area conversation. SBNchat is for neighborly conversation about news, sports, weather, etc., of interest in our community. - SBNevent South Bend area events. SBNevent is for listings and notices of events of interest in our community. - SBNhelp South Bend area help. SBNhelp is an electronic cross between a library reference desk, a community information and referral center, and a computing center help desk -- with the twist that all SBNnet participants are potential service providers as well as service users (i.e., "from each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs"). SBNhelp is intended to provide a forum for informal information and referral, and reference; it is not limited in subject matter (except that its use for any type of commercial promotion or transaction is strictly prohibited). The modus operandi for the help component is that a participant with a question or need posts an e-mail message to the SBNhelp list (address: SBNhelp@IndyCMS.IUPUI.Edu), which is then automatically redistributed to all other participants. Any participant who has an idea to help answer the question or address the need (or even suggest another possible resource for doing same) then posts an e-mail message back to the SBNhelp list in reply, and that reply is automatically redistributed to the list. In order to succeed and provide a valuable service to our community's computer users, the help component only needs its participants to read SBNhelp e-mail traffic and to respond to those messages with which they may be able to help. - SBNjobs South Bend area jobs. SBNjobs is for announcements of positions available in the South Bend area, and for statements of qualifications and interests of those persons seeking employment in our community. - SBNnews South Bend area news. SBNnews is for the distribution of local and regional news of interest in our community. - SBNsport South Bend area sports. SBNsport is for the distribution of sports information and scores of interest in our community. - SBNwx South Bend area weather. SBNwx is for the distribution of weather information of interest in our community. A ninth list, SBN, is a superlist which automatically adds the subscriber to seven of the eight separate components described above. SBNwx is available only by separate subscription. A tenth list, SBNnet-L, is used to discuss the design, implementation and management of SBNnet, South Bend's human/e computing network. SBNnet is a network of good will and neighborliness, a dedicated service for the computer users of our community, computer users from all walks of life, at home and at work. Having dealt with ListServ lists extensively over the past two to three years, I know personally the impact this technology can have on communication on a national and international scale; I believe it can also be applied closer to home to facilitate the dissemination and exchange of information locally. If you are interested in participating in or observing this project, please contact me at the e-mail address or telephone number below. I hope you will choose to be a part of SBNnet, South Bend's human/e computing network.

The topics have ranged very widely from rewritten stories, SF and fantasy books, SF movies, and SF conventions to reviews of books, movies and television shows. The range of topics is quite wide and anyone is welcome to submit material on these or other topics of interest in this general area. The digest has a very large number of readers, and trivial messages are strongly discouraged due to the heavy load SF-LOVERS puts on the hosts CPU and disk space. Messages to SF-LOVERS@RUTGERS.EDU are batched and broadcast periodically. The SF-LOVERS archives are available via anonymous ftp on ELBERETH.RUTGERS.EDU, a unix machine running BSD 4.3. Each volume is contained in its own file, with the contents ordered chronologically. The first archive includes a number of messages from the early days before digests and there is much of "historical" interest. /u2/ftp/pub/sfl: 2128 sf-lovers.v1 1648 sf-lovers.v8 7568 sf-lovers.v14b 1904 sf-lovers.v2 3600 sf-lovers.v9 4352 sf-lovers.v15a 1856 sf-lovers.v3 7472 sf-lovers.v10 3456 sf-lovers.v15b 1760 sf-lovers.v4 6752 sf-lovers.v11 816 sf-lovers.v5 4944 sf-lovers.v12a 1744 sf-lovers.v6 4000 sf-lovers.v12b 592 sf-lovers.v7 6000 sf-lovers.v13 For those unfamiliar with unix, the number to the left of the file name is the size of the file in kilobytes. Volume 16 is the current volume. Old issues for the current volume are also available from the archives in the files sf-lovers.xxxyy where "xxx" is the month of publication and "yy" is the current year. BITNET subscribers who currently do not have access to anonymous ftp may send mail to BITFTP@PUCC.BITNET with ftp commands as text of the mail message. Further instructions are available on request. Also in the archives are some files that may be of interest including episode guides for popular television shows. A partial list as of (May 1 1991) is: Episode guides: Text Files: 20 blakes7.guide 48 cons.txt 18 doctor-who.guide 24 down-in-flames.txt 18 galactica.guide 86 hitch-hikers-guide-to-the-net.txt 10 galactica80.guide 20 hugos.txt 36 lost-in-space.guide 8 klingonaase.txt 6 max-headroom.guide 6 nebulas.txt 28 new-twilight-zone.guide 4 saturn.txt 22 outerlimits.guide 4 world-fantasy-awards.txt 10 prisoner.guide 24 quantam-leap.guide 8 red-dwarf.guide 14 star-trek-animated.guide 58 star-trek-tng.guide 26 star-trek.guide 6 tomorrow-people.guide 70 twilight-zone.guide For INTERNET subscribers, all requests to be added to or deleted from this list should be sent to SF-LOVERS-REQUEST@RUTGERS.EDU. BITNET subscribers may issue the following command: TELL LISTSERV at RUTVM1 command SFLOVERS "name" where "command" is either SUBSCRIBE or UNSUBSCRIBE as appropriate. Problems and administrative questions should always be sent to SF-LOVERS-REQUEST@RUTGERS.EDU. Submissions for the digest are to be sent to SF-LOVERS@RUTGERS.EDU only. Unfortunately, due to the large volume of mail that I receive every day, messages sent to the wrong address are very likely to be unprocessed. Saul Jaffe Moderator SF-LOVERS Digest sf-lovers-request@rutgers.edu SFS-L on LISTSERV@SEARN.BITNET or LISTSERV@SEARN.SUNET.SE SFS-L, has been opened on SEARN to discuss the VM shared file system. The reason for creating a new list is that the SFS was previously discussed on several lists with a rather small intersection (VMESA-L, VMREL6-L, and occasionally some apparently unrelated lists such as LSTSRV-L or VM-UTIL). In addition, it seems unlikely that a majority of the readers of these lists are interested in long debates about the SFS, which is after all only an optional component of VM. The goal is thus to keep the "mainstream" VM lists for the more general CP and CMS issues, and gather interested parties from all related mailing lists into a new "specialized" list. The scope of the list is not restricted to any particular version of the SFS (VM/SP 6 vs VM/ESA), nor to any particular topic. We will try to answer technical questions, will debate usability issues, and will gladly welcome installation/configuration hints or even software contributions. Non-technical discussions (company policies, how to deal with workstation users, etc) are welcome, as long as they do not degenerate into pointless religious arguments. In particular, "flames" about the CMS file system will not be tolerated. Intelligent criticism is, of course, allowed.

SGANet is easy to use and will be the host of many interesting discussions which will be of great interest to your organization. SGANet is open to any student government association at any university worldwide. SGANet is an automated mailing list located at Virginia Tech. Let's say, for example, that a student government association from a university in Australia wants to share some of the issues it is working on. They would simply write their article and send it via mail to one of the addresses above SGANet then receives their mail and sends copies of it to every organization on the list. There is no limit to mail usage, and any one on the list can submit an article for distribution. It's that simple and it's very low in cost, in many cases FREE. To become a member of SGANet: Send the following message to LISTSERV%VTMV1.BITNET@CUNYVM.CUNY.EDU: subscribe SGANet (Your organization's full name) {You will receive acknolwedgement and instructions upon receipt of your subscription} Send articles, comments, anecdotes, etc. to SGANet@VTVM1.BITNET They will be automatically sent to everyone on the list.

SHARP-L on LISTSERV@IUBVM.BITNET or LISTSERV@IUBVM.UCS.INDIANA.EDU SHARP-L is a new list devoted to the history of the printed word. In affiliation with the newly-founded Society for the History of Authorship, Reading, and Publishing, SHARP-L means to give all of us who take an interest in this burgeoning field a way of exchanging ideas, information, and inquiries with other scholars in all disciplines all over the world. Whether your interest is incunabula or 20th-century American periodicals, literacy studies or the economics of the book trade, library history or literary theory, this is a list, and an organization, that hopes to bring us all together and get us acquainted. SHARP-L can be a way of bridging the occupational, disciplinary, and geographical differences among students of print culture that have tended to keep us isolated and all-too-ignorant of one another's work and interests. Subscribing to SHARP-L is easy. Just send an e-mail message to LISTSERV@IUBVM on BITNET or LISTSERV@IUBVM.UCS.INDIANA.EDU and include in the BODY of the message (NOT the subject) the line: SUBSCRIBE SHARP-L your full name To post a message to the list, simply address it to either "SHARP-L@IUBVM" (the Binet address) or "SHARP-L@IUBVM.UCS.INDIANA.EDU" (the Internet address.)

The list is intended to serve as a discussion point for Shogi-related topics and as a source of information about Shogi tactics and Shogi events. It also offers to Shogi players the possibility to engage in e-mail games in a friendly ladder competition. Shogi is much like 'western' chess, but has some very interesting differences. One is that almost all pieces can promote to stronger pieces once they reach the opposite side of the board. The second very important difference is that when a piece is captured, it becomes a piece for the capturing side, and can be dropped back onto the board ! This makes for a very exciting game, with an extremely low percentage of draws. Many strong Chess players, such as International Master Larry Kaufman in the US (who is the strongest non-Japanese player outside Japan), have found Shogi to be a great game to play. Although played by millions in Japan, so far it isn't well known outside Japan. But surely, there are some net-people out there who would like to play or get to know more about it. For Apple Macintosh owners we also have a Hypercard Shogi Stack available, which contains valuable information for every Shogi novice. We would also like to get source or executable code for a program that plays Shogi.

Cross-platform compatibility issues related to software and hardware, with an emphasis placed on software, are also included in this forum. The relevance, intentions, and uses of various software product categories, such as * Personal Information Managers (PIMs) * Connectivity (communications) * Utilities * Shells and "Front Ends" * Graphics (formats, design packages) * Object-oriented Software * Optical Character Recognition (OCR) * Programming Language Environments * Multimedia products * Integrated Packages * Desktop Publishing (DTP) The three "basics"--Databases, Spreadsheets and Text Managers are also included. Multimedia-based integration of various application categories, discussed from a software perspective, is also encouraged. Software Products include new software packages as well as the latest upgrades/updates to existing software products/packages. Members are encouraged to share knowledge of existing software packages in addition to that of new features being incorporated into upgrades of these products. Members are also encouraged to share knowledge (such as the uses, applications, and features) of recently introduced software products. Therefore, members of the list are encouraged to act as "consultants" and "enquirers" where appropriate. In accordance with current CREN regulations, commercial activity (such as the selling of software) will be prohibited. SCOPE: SOFTREVU is intended to cover all microcomputer platforms; such as the Apple Macintosh line, Amigas, IBM PS/2 line, PC compatibles, the NeXT machines, Sun and SPARC workstations, and the like. Within the scope of these computing platforms, a wide range of software products exist. Any and all of these products are viable discussion topics. SOFTREVU does not exist as a topic for issues of ethics in computing - see the ETHICS-L list. However, the merits of software packages, such as their user interface, compatibility across disparate computing platforms, and the like, are acceptable topics. List subscribers are encouraged to ask questions about software, and to offer up their opinions. In keeping with current CREN (Corporation for Research and Educational Networking) and InterNET policies, subscribers are prohibited from attempting to sell software over the network. However, the list moderators cannot be held responsible for the actions of list subscribers. SOFTREVU does not exist as a forum for the discussion of hardware or programming issues except where the relevance to existing or forthcoming software is explicit. Hardware issues should be directed to the PCTECH-L and PCSUPT-L lists, which are geared toward discussions of that nature. Programming and/or technical issues should be brought up in any of the various lists and special interest groups which are designed for this purpose. Only extremely limited concerns in customization of existing software are included, such as writing simple macros, scripts, and other modest routines. With respect to programming languages, the merits of the environment package - not the actual language - are appropriate for discussion. MEMBERSHIP: Any person who wishes to share knowledge, answer questions and/or desires to learn and ask questions is welcome. Potential members include users, consultants, programmers, managers, and the like. This list is intended to bring together people from all backgrounds to share information. GUIDELINES: SOFTREVU is a moderated list. The atmosphere of this list is one of mutual support to all members and advocates cooperation. Members are expected to engage in constructive criticism only. Subscribers are requested to keep personal vendettas off the list. This is not a forum for political or ethical discussions in any capacity; it is a forum for the discussion of software. Problems or complaints should be addressed to the list moderators. Anyone who does not maintain this policy, or is generally disruptive to the harmony of this list, will be removed. MODERATORS: Jamie Donnelly IV, ENCSADM1@UCONNVM.BITNET Elaine Brennan, ELAINE@BrownVM.Brown.EDU David B. O'Donnell, EL406006@BrownVM.Brown.EDU ARCHIVING: The list will maintain monthly archives of discussions. These archives will be purged periodically, removing outdated material, and to save system space and overhead. Announcements will be made prior to major purges, but subscribers should expect purges every few months. If necessary, either local or remote filespace may be set aside for the storage of documents of relevance to the list. ACCESSING THE LIST: To subscribe to SOFTREVU send the command, SUBSCRIBE SOFTREVU to LISTSERV@BROWNVM (LISTSERV@BrownVM.Brown.EDU). DO NOT SEND LIST COMMANDS TO THE LIST.

There are two main purposes for this list. 1) To discuss the Star Trek Role-playing game and the enhancements that FASA puts out for it 2) to play a game of Star Trek : The Role-playing game. Some of the topics that could be discussed (besides the playing of the game) could include reviews of new products by FASA, distributing new Starships and different ways to build them, "linking together" the original and the next generation and trying to fill in the history in between the two and lots of other things. This mailing list is NOT for discussing the Star Trek TV series or movies or talking about rumors and stuff except where they pertain to the Role-playing game.

Owner : bh@eng.auburn.edu (Brian Hartsfield) STARSERVER@ENGR.UKY.EDU Topic: Discussion of AT&T's StarServer family of computer systems Audience: Administrators, operators, and/or users of StarServer systems This list is envisioned as a resource for administrators and operators, as they confront the peculiarities of the StarServer family and its opera- ting system (System V Release 4). While this list is open to all, it is NOT envisioned as a "Unix Questions and Answers" list; that audience is already served by several mailing lists and Usenet newsgroups. The list operates through the standard rebroadcast mechanism; any messages sent to the list address are immediately rebroadcast to the list's members. If the list's traffic grows significantly, I will consider moving the list to a digest format. The list is archived, but the archives are not currently available to the general public. Anonymous FTP of the archives will become available during the summer of 1992.

The Neon Sign Stat League (NSSL) is a head-to-head rotisserie league which pits fan against fan in the goal of assembling the best baseball team from among ML players. Weekly performance is determined based upon player performance and wins-losses are determined by comparing two teams which 'play' each other each week. Two or three NSSL seasons are played during each ML season. Choosing lineups and trading players requires strategy and a lot of luck. Users interested in Rotisserie League Baseball are invited to subscribe. To subscribe to the list send mail (or message) to LISTSERV@SBCCVM with a text of: SUB STATLG-L firstname lastname (in body of mail).

It is not intended to be an academic discussion list, since other lists (stutt-l stutt-x) currently exist to serve that purpose. The idea for STUT-HLP grew from my observation that the current lists that are available for stuttering seem to serve the needs of academics rather than people who stutter. I don't feel that this is intentional, but it happens nonetheless. STUT-HLP will be for individuals who stutter, and the observations of these individuals will not be inhibited by theoretical discussions of stuttering. I think we all can agree that the way that stuttering is approached by the person who stutters is often different from that of the person who *treats* stutterers. SLPs and other professionals are welcome to join the list and to "listen to" and consider what is said by the participants. However, I will discourage anyone who uses the list as a forum to promote a particular approach to therapy, or who attempts to diminish the seriousness or importance of what any list participant has to say. You can join STUT-HLP by sending a "subscribe" message to listserv@bgu.edu (internet) or listserv@ecnuxa.bitnet in the following form: subscribe stut-hlp 'your full name' Let me reiterate that *in no way* is this list intended to be a replacement for, or a competitor to, either stutt-l or stutt-x. I think all three lists can coexist peacefully. If you have comments, contact me at mfrwq@bgu.edu or mfrwq@ecnuxa.bitnet. Thanks for your consideration. Let me know if you need additional information. Robert W. Quesal, Ph.D. mfrwq@uxa.ecn.bgu.edu Western Ill. U. mfrwq@ecnuxa.bitnet R-Quesal@bgu.edu STUTT-L%TEMPLEVM.BITNET@VM!.NODAK.EDU Mailing list to facilitate the exchange of information among researchers and clinicians working on the problem of stuttering. Researchers are encouraged to submit descriptions of current projects (purpose, procedures, results if any, current status) and to raise questions that may be of interest to other researchers. Clinicians are encouraged to describe unusual, interesting, or provocative cases and to ask for consultation on particularly difficult cases. Individuals who stutter may also want to get information about therapy, recent research results, etc. BitNet users may subscribe by sending the following command by interactive message or e-mail to LISTSERV@TEMPLEVM: SUBSCRIBE STUTT-L Your_full_name Where "Your_full_name" is your real name, not your login Id. Non-BitNet users can join by sending the above command in the text/body of a message to LISTSERV%TEMPLEVM.BITNET@VM1.NODAK.EDU. Coordinator: Woody Starkweather STUXCH-L@PSUVM.PSU.EDU [Last Updated 12-October-1991] STUXCH-L@PSUVM is a list for students in art, architecture, and both visual and basic design. If you are interested in making a student exchange in one of these areas then post your interest to this list. While initially established for Pennsylvania State University the list is open to students in these fields at any institution. To subscribe to the list send e-mail to LISTSERV@PSUVM.BITNET (or LISTSERV@PSUVM.PSU.EDU on the Internet) with the following command in the body of the mail: SUB STUXCH-L yourfirstname yourlastname To obtain a list of files available send the following command to LISTSERV@PSUVM: INDEX STUXCH-L Owner: Harold Ray Lawrence HRL@PSUARCH.BITNET SUEARN-L on LISTSERV@UBVM (aka LISTSERV@UBVM.CC.BUFFALO.EDU) The SUEARN-L consists of news items, articles, and how-to questions about the ongoing work on connecting the U.S.S.R. to international computer networks (the internet) contributed by its readers, cross-posted from other mailing lists, and retyped (usually without permission) from the "real" press. Topics often discussed include directions on reaching Soviet sites by e-mail, discussions of how modems and other equipment work over Soviet phone lines, technology export restrictions, and prospects for connecting more sites to the net. Submissions for the digest should be mailed to SUEARN-L@UBVM.CC.BUFFALO.EDU. They will be automatically forwarded by the LISTSERV to the editor, who puts together the digest and mails one out every week or so. Questions of the type "Is Soviet site S reachable by e-mail?" may be answered by private e-mail if the editor knows the answer. The digest is distributed by a LISTSERV mailing list. As with other such lists, one subscribes by sending a NJE interactive message or mail saying in its body SUB SUEARN-L Your name to LISTSERV@UBVM.CC.BUFFALO.EDU (or any other LISTSERV). If you try this and fail, ask one of the list owners to help you with your subscription. Many sites channel SUEARN-L digests into NOTES, NEWS, RN, or similar systems that let many users read a single copy of the digest. If you're at such a site, you can save some network bandwidth by reading such a "public" copy, instead of having your personal copy e-mailed to you. List Editor/Owner: Mike Meystel MEYSTMA@DUVM.BITNET List Owner: Dimitri Vulis DLV@CUNYVMS1.BITNET Additional Information: Like most good things on Internet, SUEARN-L free, unless you use a commercial e-mail system, gatewayed to Internet, that charges you for incoming mail. The digest is sent out about once a week, and is typically several hundred lines long. Please note that the Baltic states aren't considered to be part of USSR by the editors of this digest, and the discussion of e-mail connection to these countires should be sent to BALT-L, not to SUEARN-L; but the discussion of computer network situation in Eastern and Central Europe as a whole (including, but not limited to the USSR) have been posted in the past. HISTORY: SUEARN-L was split off RusTeX-L in the summer of 1990. (RusTeX-L dealt originally with both quietions of Cyrillic (Russian and other) text processing and Soviet e-mail (the people interested in one are usually interested in the other)). By that time, RusTeX-L traffic dealing with e-mail increased sufficiently to annoy those RusTeX-L readers not interested in the technical aspects of exchanging e-mail with the USSR, so SUEARN-L was born (leaving RusTeX-L for Cyrillic text processing discussions only), and reached its present form (a moderated weekly digest) after months of trial and error. Sun-386i@RICE.EDU Mailing list to discuss issues specific to the Sun 386i system. An archive of previous digests is available by anonymous FTP to MGH-COFFEE.HARVARD.EDU (128.103.80.123).

This list is for those students who help or assist the professor or lecturer in their classroom duties. University teaching assistants have a variety of responsibilities. The purpose of this discussion group is to give teaching assistants the opportunity to discuss the roles of being a teacher and a student. Some questions to stimulate our conversation include: - What kinds of teaching techniques do you use? - How can you motivate students and stimulate discussion? - How can you promote a supportive classroom climate? - How can you set expectations for students that are high enough to challenge but not to overwhelm? - How can you review for tests, write examinations and assignments and grade? - How can you balance being a teacher and student? These and many more issues can be discussed in this teaching assistant discussion group. Your ideas are encouraged.

Suitable topics include questions and answers related to tandem componentry, riding technique, brands and equipment selection, prices, clubs, rides and other activities, cooperating on a section on tandems for the rec.bicycles.* FAQ, etc. This list is not intended to subvert the various rec.bicycles newsgroups, rather to supplement them - items of general interest should be posted to the newsgroups. Faster response to specific questions, a slightly more private forum in which opinions can be expressed with reduced fear of repercussion, and a place to carry on about tandems far beyond what might be considered "polite" in the general purpose newsgroups are some of the anticipated benefits. To subscribe, send a message to "listserv@hobbes.ucsd.edu" with the line "subscribe tandem firstname lastname" in the message body, where is your own name.

We know from our own experience that one of the main difficulties people dealing with tbi face is that their time is mostly dominated by the survivor's recovery process. Accessing support groups or networking of any kind can seem like one more thing to add to an already packed schedule. A forum such as this is available at all hours of the day or night and does not need to become one more event that must be scheduled. An additional service we plan to provide is gathering and making available resource files that can be retrieved from the listserv. We encourage submissions and suggestions. To subscribe send mail to listserv@moria.nfbcal.org.

Initially, the distribution will include TeXhax Digest, UKTeX, and TeXMaG. The intent of TeX-Pubs is to allow users a single site for delivery of electronic form periodicals, such as TeXhax, UKTeX, and TeXMaG, as well as any others which may be brought to my attention (possibly also including the periodic "frequently asked questions" posts from USENET's comp.text.tex). This list is offerred in lieu of directly posting these documents to INFO-TeX. The decision to create a support list is in an effort to provide this information to interested readers, but not replicate it for those who wish to retain their current subscription(s) and not be bothered by extraneous material on INFO-TeX. There will be no direct archives for TeX-Pubs. Instead, each of the included periodicals will have its own directory available for retrieval at FILESERV@SHSU.BITNET.

Intellectual is stressed as opposed to the "personal", the inspirational, or evangelistic. This does not mean one cannot evangelize, but rather that participants should persuade rather than brow-beat or attack those they disagree with. Arguments are inevitable, but they ultimately should resolve into mutual understanding or at least a truce. What are the fit subjects? - the Cosmos is the limit; some might be: - World Religions - Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism especially inter-religious dialogue. - Apologetics - How should a religious perspective operate in relation to critical questioning? For example, can you prove God exists if evil also does? - Conversion - By what means or methods should one faith seek to increase its members? Or is this out-of-bounds in a pluralistic society? - Dogma - What are the basic tenets of a world religion? Are they coherent? Should they be? What do they derive from, revelation or something else? - Ethics - Should religious beliefs and values seek to get involved in politics? Should an individual religious person seek to promote their morals apart from their own religious communities?

University of Arkansas serves as host to the listserver. TOOLB-L is a list to provide an unmoderated environment where issues, questions, comments, ideas, and uses of Asymetrix's ToolBook and it's OpenScript language can be freely discussed. The explicit purpose of TOOLB-L is to provide timely interchange between subscribers, to provide a forum where interesting questions can be addressed within the context of interactive exchange between many individuals, and to discuss the evolution of ToolBook applications. The discussions of TOOLB-L will be archived and available for reference. In the future it is hoped this list will lead to the establishment of public domain toolbook archives. These archives would be very similar to the currently existing archives of hypercard stacks. As is the case on all unmoderated lists, the discussion and topics are only limited by the participation and interest of its subscribers. Subscribers are welcome to take an active role by posting to TOOLB-L or an inactive role by monitoring the list.

The list is also a good place to ask questions of general interest; stimulating discussion on recent results or publications; and to provide an easy and cheap way to forward general announcements, such as congresses, new journals, administration, relevant news, etc. This is the job of the list moderators. However, anyone who wishes to use the list for announcing interesting scientific events or meetings is invited to do so, or to send the information to the moderators, allowing calls for papers, bibliographies, and reports of lasting interest; obtaining, if possible, the contents pages in electronic format of relevant journals (such as J Thermal Biol, Am J Physiol, J Appl Physiol, Eur J Appl Physiol, etc.) for publication in THPHYSIO. A side-effect of the list will be that any user can easily access the E-Mail address of colleagues.

Coordinator: James T Perkins TRDEV-L on LISTSERV@PSUVM.BITNET or LISTSERV@PSUVM.PSU.EDU TRDEV-L provides a forum for the exchange of information on the training and the development of human resources. Training is designed to improved human work performance on the job, and development prepares employees to adjust and grow with the organization. Training and development plays a strategic role in organization performance, and human resource professionals have a responsibility to explore their field and to expand their knowledge base. Participation in activities such as TRDEV-L assist in accomplishing this task. The primary focus of this list is to stimulate research collaboration and assistance in training and development for the academic and professional communities. We invite the discussion of policy and practice issues, the posting of position announcements, pre-publication drafts of manuscripts, and news and reports of conferences. Because of rapid changes in technology, traditional sources of this type of information are no longer adequate. With this in mind, the Institute for Research in Training and Development at Penn State University in cooperation with The University Research Council in Human Resource Development initiated this network for the ongoing and timely exchange of information in this field. This discussion group, managed by the Training and Development Society Graduate Student Organization at Penn State, was developed and field-tested through a grant from the Technical Foundation of America. We hope that you will actively participate in this network. You may join the list at any time by sending e-mail to LISTSERV@PSUVM or LISTSERV@PSUVM.PSU.EDU and including the following in the BODY of the mail (NOT the subject): SUBSCRIBE TRDEV-L yourfirstname yourlastname Please note that this command must NOT be sent to the list address (TRDEV-L@PSUVM) but to the LISTSERV address (LISTSERV@PSUVM). Contributions sent to this list are automatically archived. You can obtain a list of the available archive files by sending an "INDEX TRDEV-L" command to LISTSERV@PSUVM. These files can then be retrieved by means of a "GET TRDEV-L filetype" command, or using the database search facilities of LISTSERV. Send an "INFO DATABASE" command for more information on the latter. Owner: David L. Passmore TREK-REVIEW-L on LISTSERV@cornell.edu [Last Update 3/93] TREK-REVIEW-L exists as a noise-free forum for reviews of Star Trek material. This category includes but is not limited to television programs, feature films, novels and novelizations, comic books, games and parodies of Star Trek. The list is not rooted in any specific generation of Trek. Original Series, Animated Series, Movie Era, Next Generation and Deep Space Nine materials are all valid. One way to perceive this list is as a kind of edited electronic fanzine. Where 'rec.arts.startrek.info' is a kind of Trek newspaper, containing only hard news and plot summaries, this mailing list exists for critical opinion features written by and for the electronic mail audience. There are three categories of acceptable submission: review, rating, and comment. 'REVIEW' is defined as a CRITICAL essay about either a specific work or Star Trek in general. Posts of the form, 'I thought that TNG's latest episode, "Foo on Picard" was the awesomest episode ever' or, similarly, 'I thought that DSN's latest episode, "O'Brien Gets Drunk" sucked backwards' are not acceptable. 'RATING' is defined as a graded or numeric rating. If you wish to merely register your opinion without critical comment, then you may send such a rating to the list address. Ratings collected in this manner, as well as copied from reviews, will be posted periodically on a per-episode basis. 'COMMENT' is defined as a CRITICAL response to a review. This is not a discussion list; however, CRITICAL responses to reviews sent to the list address which the moderator believes to be of general interest will be bundled together and published in digest format as a 'letter column'. SUBMISSIONS should be sent to 'TREK-REVIEW-L@cornell.edu'. Accepted submissions are acknowledged by publication. Rejected submissions will be acknowledged by a return letter, explaining why the submission was rejected. What the list isn't for The list is not a discussion list. Neither, however, is it intended to displace 'rec.arts.startrek.current' as another home for reviews. Rather, it is intended as an alternative access point to critical opinion about Star Trek for people who find 'rec.arts.startrek.current' overwhelming or cannot access it for some reason. It is expected that many of the reviews posted to the list will also find their way (assumedly at their author's hands) onto 'r.a.s.current'. That, therefore, is where discussion should take place. The list is not for press releases or plot summaries without commentary. That's why we have 'rec.arts.startrek.info' (thank you, Jim!) The list is not for the redistribution of commercially published reviews, with or without permission. It is for the posting of comments for and by members of the various electronic networks that make up or exchange mail with The Internet. The list is not intended as a replacement for proposals to create a 'rec.arts.startrek.reviews' newsgroup. Rather, it exists to fill the gap some feel such a group would also fill until efforts to create such a newsgroup are successful. Neither, however, will that newsgroup necessarily mean the end of this list. Joining the list TO subscribe to the list, send the following command IN MAIL to 'LISTSERV@cornell.edu' -- SUBSCRIBE TREK-REVIEW-L Firstname Lastname FOR further information about the Cornell Listserv, send the command HELP to the LISTSERV address.

This list will also be used to mail periodic updates of the list of all UNIX software held at WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL (probably monthly). UNIX-SW is not a forum for discussion of this software. Such discussions are more appropriately held with the authors, or in other groups. Rather, we are attempting to make known to the widest possible audience the contents of this large repository of public-domain software. SIMTEL20 is a DEC-20 machine running the TOPS20 operating system, located at White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico. The machine is a host on the Defense Data Network (DDN), and as such, gives users located on other hosts the capability of directly transferring this software via the FTP (file transfer process) command. Mail archives are kept on host WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL as TOPS20 mail files named yymm.n-TXT, where n starts with one and increments by one into another file as each file reached 150 disk pages. To conserve disk space, all the mail files in the archive, except for the current year, are individually compressed. The compressed files have the suffix -Z as part of the filetype field; they should be renamed to have the suffix .Z (uppercase Z) when transfered to a Unix system so the uncompress program will find them. The current month's mail is still kept in UNIX-SW-ARCHIV.TXT. The archives are stored in directory: PD2: Archive files are available via ANONYMOUS FTP from WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL for those with TCP/IP access to the Internet. The repository been completely reorganized. The software is now stored in the directory PD2: (it used to be stored in PD2:; this directory no longer exists).

URBANITES@PSYCHE.MIT.EDU The purpose of this mailing list is to discuss and promote self-sufficiency in everyday life in many forms. This includes but is not limited to basic needs such as food, shelter, health, and safety. A unique aspect of this list, however, unlike many others, is that we will concentrate on the city and urban/semi-urbs applications of traditional self-sufficiency technology. Thus, discussions on raising fish in a small backyard pool or in a large aquarium instead of in cage-culture rafts on a farm pond; raising veggies and some small-tree fruits in containers on the patio or under grow-lights at work (a ready source of fluorescent fixtures for most of us!) instead of in a 20 x 40 garden plot "out back". Certainly folks in a more suburban setting (lucky them!) will find much of the "urbanites" content useful, but the list is here first and foremost for those of us out here in the Concrete Jungle, for whatever reason. Some of us, like myself, are here using the city's resources to learn before setting off for the country or the 'burbs, some are stuck in pay-our-debts jobs here, and some just like the active city environment of places like Harvard Square or Pike's Place. But even though we rent our dwellings and have a postage-stamp size yard, or none at all, we can still get into doing for ourselves in some of the ways our bucolic buddies do.

Some potential topics for discussion: porting software, integrating with bitnet, internet, and servers, requests for help, using UTS-specific features, hardware issues, and anything else that's UTS-related. Discussion should be limited to the UTS environment (under VM or native),pso this list does not replace info-unix, unix-wiz, aix-l, or any otherpmailing list. Postings not specific to UTS should be posted to one of those lists, instead. The discussion is not presently moderated, although if message traffic warrants, it may be in the future. All are free to post to the list, with the condition that you must be subscribed to the list to post anything. To help keep the noise down to a reasonable level, we would appreciate if you would contact your site's UTS system administrator (aka "unix guru") for help on your question, before you send it out to everyone. A monthly notebook of all discussions will be kept online, in files named UTS-L LOGYYMM (UTS-L LOG9001, for example) on the Listserv. To retrieve a notebook, send e-mail or an interactive message to Listserv with a message text/body of GET UTS-L LOGYYMM.

The list's intent is to provide a forum for sharing of UU-related information across district and regional boundaries; to bring into contact people and ideas who normally would never have met; and to foster discussion of functional and structural innovations we can make in our organizations and world. Electronic conferencing, mail, and the paradigms they encourage are something that most members of this list have a growing familiarity with.

Covering a period even longer than the reign of its namesake (say, 1790 to 1914), VICTORIA equally welcomes the contributions of students of literature, art, social history, gender studies, politics, publishing, intellectual history, or what-have-you. For the most passionate devotee of literary theory as well as the most hardheaded empiricist, VICTORIA provides that beloved Victorian thing, a "cheap luxury," in the shape of a free electronic forum for the exchange of research ideas and queries, notices of recent books and articles, conference listings, and job announcements, and for lively discussion of any issues, large or small, that bear on the study of 19th-century Britain. To subscribe to VICTORIA, simply send an e-mail message to LISTSERV@IUBVM (the BITNET address) or LISTSERV@IUBVM.UCS.INDIANA.EDU (the Internet address). Leaving the subject heading blank, let the body of the message consist of the line SUB VICTORIA yourfirstname yourlastname That's all there is to it.

The list is currently open to the public and is a non-digest format list. Readers who prefer digest format lists should periodically read the public back logs of submissions, available from the LEHIIBM1 LISTSERV via a GET command (e.g., GET VIRUS-L LOG8806A for the first week of activity during June, 1988). Mail sent to to Virus-L@LEHIIBM1.BITNET will automatically be redistributed to everyone on the mailing list. By default, you will NOT receive a copy of your own letters. If you wish to, send mail to the LISTSERV saying SET VIRUS-L REPRO Archives are available, as is a file called DIRTY DOZEN which lists a number of viruses, trojan horses, and pirated programs for the IBM PC. All submissions to VIRUS-L are stored in weekly log files which can be downloaded by any user on (or off) the mailing list. There is also a small archive of some of the public anti-virus programs which are currently available. This archive, too, can be accessed by any user. All of this is handled automatically by the LISTSERV. To find out what files are available on the LISTSERV, send mail to LISTSERV%LEHIIBM1.BITNET@MITVMA.MIT.EDU saying INDEX VIRUS-L Note that filenames/extensions are separated by a space, and not by a period. Once you've decided which file(s) you want, send mail to LISTSERV saying GET filename filetype For example, GET VIRUS-L LOG8804 would get the file called VIRUS-L LOG8804 (which happens to be the monthly log of all messages sent to VIRUS-L during April, 1988). Note that, starting June 6, 1988, the logs are weekly. The new file format is VIRUS-L LOGyymmx where yy is the year (88, 89, etc.), mm is the month, and x is the week (A, B, etc.). Readers who prefer digest format lists should read the weekly logs and sign off of the list itself.

This list is open and public, but as the following text will describe, some files will be restricted. Be aware that a posting to this list will automatically be forwarded to VIRUS-L. This list has been established to act as a clearing house / archival location for comments and information concerning VM viruses and worms. The logs are public and your comments well be freely available to the network community. I intend to also store samples of source, object, and executable code for examination by selected persons. Commonly these files will only be available to NADs and other selected interested parties. Application may be made for code samples. Userid authenticity WILL BE verified prior to dispersal of infectious programs. So far the VM community has been spared many of the problems that currently plague the PC, MAC and Unix worlds. Let us hope that it remains that way. This archive is intended as a step in the direction to halt the spread of such malicious programming. While the name VMVIRUS implies a limitation to the VM environment, this list is open to comments by MVS and VSE users also. I would urge VM, MVS, and VSE sites to send samples of infectious code for storage. The following rules MUST be adhered to in the transmission of potentially harmful programs. 1. Send notification to myself (SYSMAINT@PCCVM) prior to transmission. 2. De-activate the code if possible 3. Transmit the code to SECURE@PCCVM 4. Do not include code in a 'mail-gram' This site maintains a 'filter' for known infectious materials, hence the required pre-transmission notification. Let all work together to restore the 'clean' computing environment that we used to have and to assist in the eradication / prosecution of offenders.

Coordinator: Marc Shannon XYZZY Developer: David Bolen Y-RIGHTS@SJUVM.BITNET [Last Updated 28-January-1992] As the title suggests, this list is on the discussion of the rights of kids and teenagers (called Y-Rights for "Youth Rights", or "Youngster's Rights" or "Why Rights?" -- whichever strikes your fancy). It's a very open list, and everyone is welcome to participate on it, whether you are a teacher, a professional, a student, or a kid or teenager yourself. What do I mean when I say "Children's Rights"? Well, I don't necessarily mean the rights for adults to "protect" children, because that "right" seems to be misused and misguided to ends that are, oftentimes, tragic, even with the 'best' intentions. That, of course, is open for discussion on this list, and I'm certain that it will come up at some point. In my ever changing view of rights for those under the `age of majority' (which is 18 or 21 in the United States, depending on how you view it, and different in other countries), I am looking more for changes in our judicial system, educational system, and our society, as a whole, to view youth as Human Beings first and foremost, before concerning themselves with the `correct manners to treat, mold and shape a child', as if s/he is just a ball of clay, and not a human being. So, with that, I welcome you. Come to talk, or come to listen. Speak up anytime, even if just to say "Hi, I'm still here...." To add yourself to the list, send an Interactive Message (BITNET) or a Mail message (any system) to LISTSERV@SJUVM with a single line: SUB Y-RIGHTS Firstname Lastname This particular LISTSERV takes a minimum of two names, but it can take three, four or more (for example, "J.
