Per the previous discussion on the unix-pc.* newsgroups, I will be making
a monthly posting to advertise the unix-pc-net mailing list, which provides
the contents of unix-pc.* in mail format to people who cannot get the unix-pc
newsgroups. The posting is appended; comments are welcome. Please email, as
I no longer read either of these groups; follow-ups are set to alt.dev.null.
--------------------
According to the monthly information postings from Gene Spafford, there is
a Unix-PC network available at many sites:
<Unix-PC
<Another such hierarchy is the "unix-pc" distribution. This consists of
<groups devoted to users of the AT&T Unix-PC. These groups were
<originated as a mailing list started by three owners of AT&T Unix PCs:
<Gary Smith, David Dalton and Kathy Vincent. As the list expanded, it
<turned into a newsgroup hierarchy, and more and more sites began to
<carry the groups; hundreds of sites now carry these groups. To recieve
<them, you need to contact a site already getting them; att, gatech,
<mit-eddie, psuvax1, ucsd and ukma are well-known sites getting these
<groups and the admins there may be willing to help find a feed should
<you desire (and ask nicely); uunet also carries these groups. The
<unix-pc groups circulated include:
<unix-pc.bugs Bug reports, fixes & workarounds.
<unix-pc.general General information and discussion.
<unix-pc.sources Source code to various programs.
<unix-pc.uucp Configuration and management of uucp on Unix-PCs.
<unix-pc.test Test group.
If your site cannot get the unix-pc.* groups via regular news, contact the
address below to be added to the mailing list.
<unix-pc-net
< Contact: {pyramid,tolerant,uunet}!zorch!unix-pc-request (Scott H. Mueller)
< Purpose: To provide redistribution via mail of the unix-pc news
< hierarchy to sites that don't or cannot receive it as a regular
< distribution. The special address "zorch!unix-pc" can be used by
< subscribers to post to the group unix-pc.general.
