info-mac@uw-beaver (info-mac) (12/04/84)
From: Ed Pattermann <PATTERMANN@SUMEX-AIM.ARPA> I will have to give up the moderator post of INFO-MAC at the end of December. Hence, I am looking for a person and site to take over the maintenance and operation of INFO-MAC. All that is really required of the moderator is TIME and PATIENCE, TIME to deal with the editing and resending of messages (or digestifying if you so choose), updating of mailing lists, corresponding with readers, etc., and PATIENCE to deal with the tremendous number of messages, busy work, and gripes that are part of the 'job'. What you get in return is the satisfaction of doing a job that 'someone has to do', first hand information on the Macintosh and related HW/SW, and unexplored opportunities for greater dissemination and organization of INFO-MAC messages and programs. What is required of the host for INFO-MAC is ANONYMOUS Arpanet access, and about 5K pages of disk storage. All I really ask of the new moderator is that the list be kept for discussions of topics relating to the serious use and development of the Macintosh. That is why the list was started, and that is what the majority of the readers have come to expect. If you are interested, please drop me a note. I have been involved with the Macintosh since November, 1983, and it has been very rewarding for me to have a small part in the excitement of the Macintosh, and assist in the dissemination and sharing of information, software, and experiences. While not being the moderator, I will continue to take part in INFO-MAC as a reader and contributor, and wish the whole INFO-MAC community continued success in their MACendeavors. Thanks! -- Ed -------
