[net.micro.mac] Info-mac woes

chavez@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU (Thomas M. Chavez) (01/06/86)

I, too, am one of the many who have not received any info-mac digests for
quite some time.  After looking into the problem a little bit, I found out
that the redistribution lists that were used here at Berkeley were destroyed
last Fall when a student didn't renew his account.  He maintained three
lists for info-mac and one list for applebus notes.

I am not sure how far-reaching his lists were, but I have been told that
ucbvax is a major gateway for the west-coast.  This might explain why
fa.info-mac was no longer updated: UW-beaver might have been on our mailing
list for redistribution.

I am working out the details with the current system people to get the files
back or to just start new lists.  If you would like to be placed on the
lists which I will maintain for the next two years (or longer if my degree
takes a little longer (:-) , just mail me your ARPA address.  For Usenet,
I will depend upon reposting of digests from Arpa.
