[mod.std.unix] ARPA Internet access to mod.std.unix

jsq@ut-sally.UUCP (John Quarterman) (07/08/85)

From: John Quarterman (moderator) <ut-sally!std-unix>

Several people have expressed interest in getting mod.std.unix by mail
over the ARPA Internet.  I've set up automatic forwarding of postings
to the newsgroup to a list of Internet addresses from ut-sally.  As long
as the size of the list remains small, I will keep the list on sally.
If it gets large, I will try to find some host better set up for such
forwarding to take it over.

There was a suggestion to funnel mod.std.unix into UNIX-WIZARDS, as
mod.std.c is funnelled into INFO-C.  I think this would be a bad idea,
considering the amount of junk in UNIX-WIZARDS.  Same for INFO-UNIX.

Eventually, I will put a listing in [SRI-NIC]<NETINFO>INTEREST-GROUPS.TXT,
which is the registry for Internet mailing lists.  For the moment, the
appropriate information is as follows:

The moderated newsgroup mod.std.unix is for discussions of UNIX standards,
in particular of the draft standard in progress by the IEEE P1003
"UNIX Standards" Committee.  It is gatewayed to a mailing list on
the ARPA Internet.

Submissions to the newsgroup (permission to post assumed) to:
			   UUCP:  ut-sally!std-unix
	ARPA Internet and CSNET:  std-unix@ut-sally.ARPA
Comments about the newsgroup (permission to post not assumed) to:
			   UUCP:  ut-sally!std-unix-request
	ARPA Internet and CSNET:  std-unix-request@ut-sally.ARPA

Mail to my personal addresses about the newsgroup will be treated
like mail to std-unix-request.

Note that ut-sally.ARPA will soon become SALLY.UTEXAS.EDU.
