updated unix-pc distribution list
mark hilliard
A small group of us decided that it might be to our advantage
to create a unix-pc users' network, using existing usenet
software, in order to facilitate the exchange of information
regarding the UNIX pc. We have created the following newsgroups
to be transmitted privately among the members of the network:
unix-pc.general
unix-pc.uucp
unix-pc.sources
unix-pc.test
More groups will be added as needed. Of course, the main
limitation is the long distance phone bill. If you are
located in one of the cities served by *GTE's PC Pursuit, then
the long distance problem is solved.
Your site need not be a UNIX PC to hook into the net. Any system
is welcome. As a matter of fact, many larger systems are already
on the net, helping with the distribution. Many AT&T sites are
active contributors to the unix-pc net. Please note, though,
that even though AT&T sites are valued members of the net, the
net remains independent of AT&T. Good communication with the
people at AT&T is one of the aims of the network.
Are you interested in joining such a network?
Here is the current site map of the unix-pc network along
with a list of sites willing to serve as newsfeeders:
