info-sequent-request@im4u.UUCP (07/04/86)
From: jsq (John Quarterman) In the last few months I have not been able to pay enough attention to the INFO-SEQUENT list (aka mod.computers.sequent on USENET). Due to new commitments, this will probably be true in the future. Therefore, I would like to solicit a new moderator for it from the readership. There are not many qualifications other than sufficient interest and time to watch over the list. You'll find it easier to do if you're already familiar with running a mailing list or newsgroup (it's possible to make it look like either from the moderator's point of view). I can give pointers on how to do it if you haven't already, however. It's probably appropriate for the moderator to be someone who has a Sequent machine, but that's hardly necessary. So, any takers?

This is a slightly modified repeat of an earlier message which
probably didn't get through to some people due to mailing list problems.

So, any takers? I've gotten one potential volunteer locally, who
will probably become the new moderator unless there is someone out
there who would really like to do it.
