[mod.std.unix] mod.std.unix Volume 6

std-unix@ut-sally.UUCP (Moderator, John Quarterman) (03/25/86)

This is the first article in Volume 6 of mod.std.unix/std-unix.
These volumes are strictly for administrative convenience.
Paper copies of them get delivered to the P1003 committee chair
from time to time and several members of the committee follow
the newsgroup on-line.

Feel free to continue any discussions from the previous volume
or to start new discussions.


The USENET newsgroup mod.std.unix is for discussions of UNIX standards,
particularly the IEEE P1003 draft standard.  It is also distributed
in an ARPA Internet mailing list.  I'm the moderator, which mostly
means I post what you send me.  I'm also the institutional representative
of the USENIX Association to P1003.

Permission to post to the newsgroup is assumed for mail to std-unix.
Permission to post is not assumed for mail to std-unix-request,
unless explicitly granted in the mail.  Mail to my personal addresses
will be treated like mail to std-unix-request if it obviously refers
to the newsgroup.

Archives may be found on sally.UTEXAS.EDU.  The current volume may
be retreived by anonymous ftp (login anonymous, password guest)
as ~ftp/pub/mod.std.unix, while the previous volumes may be retrieved
as ~ftp/pub/mod.std.unix.v1, ~ftp/pub/mod.std.unix.v2, etc., through 5.
The volume with the AT&T public domain getopt(3) is ~ftp/pub/mod.std.unix.v3.

Finally, remember that any remarks by any committee member (especially
including me) in this newsgroup do not represent any position (including
any draft, proposed or actual, of the standard) of the committee as a
whole, unless explicitly stated otherwise in such remarks.
