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.

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.

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.

Coordinator: Howard Walter GovDoc-L%PSUVM.BITNET@VM1.NODAK.EDU Mailing list with a focus is specifically on issues of information dissemination through Federal Depository Libraries. Issues to be discussed include: electronic dissemination policies of the Government Printing Office(GPO), the 1990 Census, access to Federal documents (Freedom of Information Act issues), automation of document collections in libraries (Marcive v. 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. Archive Listing: This will be listing which files are availble. Currently we only have two files, the GS/DSP Preliminary Press Info that was posted to comp.sys.apple2, this one and a long question and answer post by Pete Snowberg about the DSP board.

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.
