usenet@gatech.CSNET (07/01/86)
Original-from: Gene Spafford (gatech!spaf) [Most recent change: 21 June 1986 by spaf] A number of moderated groups exist on the net. These are groups which usually have one or more individuals (acting as editors and/or moderators) who must approve articles before they are published to the net. In general, these groups fall into one of five categories: 1) Groups with postings of an informative nature not suited to discussion and always originating from the same (very small) group of posters. Groups within this category include mod.newslists, net.announce.newusers, and mod.map. 2) Groups derived from "net" groups with such a high volume that it is hard for the average reader to keep up. The moderated versions of these groups are an attempt to provide a lower volume and higher quality version of the same forum. Examples of this category include net.announce and mod.os.unix. 3) Groups derived from "net" groups which have often been abused. That is, the "net" groups often received postings of items which were not germane to the stated topic of the group (or sometimes even within the realm of politeness for the net). This also includes groups suffering from an annoying number of duplicate postings and innappropriate followups. Moderated groups in this category include mod.sources and mod.motss. 4) Groups designed to serve also as direct feedback to an off-the-net group. The discussions in mod.std.mumps and mod.std.c fall into this category. 5) Groups which are gatewayed into the Usenet from an Arpa Internet mailing list. These groups are moderated by someone on the Internet side but are shared with the Usenet population. Submissions mailed to the proper addresses, given below, will appear in both the "mod" group on Usenet, and the Internet list. Some of these groups do not actually have a moderator, but instead act as automatic remailers to both networks. To post to a "mod" group, write your article and mail it to the listed SUBMISSION address. The moderator will then do the actual posting of the article. The news software on the Usenet will not allow direct posting to moderated newsgroups, nor will it forward unauthorized articles to other sites. The only way to post to a moderated group is to mail it to the moderator. Depending on the newsgroup involved, if the moderator feels that your article is inappropriate for the group, s/he will return the article to you with a suggestion for other newsgroups in which to post it, and/or an explanation of why it is not appropriate for the moderated group. You may still post such articles to the "net" groups as you currently do, if such groups exist. If you have questions or complaints about the way a moderated group is run, contact the moderator by mail. Alternatively, you can send mail to the mailing list "moderators@cbosgd.att.COM" and it will be rebroadcast to all of the current Usenet-only newsgroup moderators. Below is a list of the current moderated groups and the moderators of those groups. Included in that list are the addresses to use if you have questions of comments about the groups. After that is given a list of addresses for submissions of articles to those groups. If your site is running 2.10.2 or later news, these addresses can be used to build the "moderators" file so that "postnews" can automatically mail an article to the correct moderator. If you are NOT running 2.10.2 news, you are *STRONGLY* advised to upgrade to it so as to take advantage of this feature, as well as the numerous bug fixes and other enhancements. The addresses are given in Internet/domain form. If a site has an Internet address, that is given in the list, otherwise a UUCP address is given. Sites reachable via other direct addresses are given in the correspondence list just below. If you are a UUCP-only site, you can mail to an ARPA (EDU, GOV, etc.)-only site by mailing through the gateways (seismo and ucbvax) using a uucp-style path. Thus, to submit an article to the mod.protocols.appletalk group, for example, mail it to: ...!{seismo,ucbvax}!c.cs.cmu.edu!info-applebus For those of you not currently using the UUCP map data, the following can be used to derive uucp mail paths: ...!{akgua,ihnp4}!abnji ...!{akgua,gatech,ihnp4,ulysses}!cbosgd ...!{seismo,topaz}!columbia!cucca!cu20b ...!{decvax,ihnp4}!decwrl ...!{akgua,decvax,philabs}!mcnc!ecsvax ...!hplabs!felix ...!{akgua,cbosgd,decvax,hplabs,ihnp4,linus,seismo}!gatech ...!{decvax,gatech,ihnp4,mcnc,seismo,ucbvax}!hplabs ...!{allegra,cbosgd,decvax,ihnp4,yale}!ima ...!{ihnp4,qantel,seismo,topaz}!lll-crg ...!{cbosgd,ihnp4,mit-eddie,seismo}!mirror ...!{gatech,harvard,ihnp4}!mit-eddie ...!{akgua,cbosgd,decvax,gatech,linus,seismo}!philabs!nyit ...!decvax!genrad!panda --or-- ...!seismo!harvard!wjh12!panda ...!{cbosgd,ihnp4,seismo}!plus5 ...!{decvax,ihnp4}!pur-ee!pucc-j ...!{harvard,ihnp4,seismo}!ut-sally!rice ...!{cbosgd,decvax,gatech,ihnp4,ulysses}!seismo ...!{allegra,mcnc,uiucdcs}!convex!smu ...!{decvax,linus,wjh12}!bbncca!spdcc ...!harvard!spdcc ...!{gatech,sdcsvax,seismo}!drillsys!soma ...!{cbosgd,decvax,hplabs,seismo}!sun ...!{apollo,masscomp,wanginst}!ulowell ...!{cbosgd,decvax,gatech,ihnp4,ulysses}!seismo!umcp-cs ...!{harvard,ihnp4,seismo}!ut-sally ...!ucbvax!ucbopal ...!{allegra,decvax,harvard}!yale Address correspondences: cbosgd.att.com == cbosgd.uucp cu20b.columbia.edu == cu20b.uucp decwrl.dec.com == decwrl.uucp eddie.mit.edu == mit-eddie.uucp gatech.csnet == gatech.uucp gatech.edu == gatech.uucp hplabs.arpa == hplabs.uucp j.cc.purdue.edu == pucc-j.uucp lll-crg.arpa == lll-crg.uucp mimsy.umd.edu == umcp-cs.uucp red.rutgers.edu == rutgers.uucp rice.edu == rice.uucp sally.utexas.edu == ut-sally.uucp seismo.css.gov == seismo.uucp sun.arpa == sun.uucp opal.berkeley.edu == ucbopal.uucp ulowell.csnet == ulowell.uucp yale.arpa == yale.uucp yale.arpa == yalecs.bitnet Gene Spafford 1 July 1986 ------------------------------------------------------------------ Group Moderator or Coordinator Requests, Comments, etc. ------------------------------------------------------------------ mod.ai Kenneth Laws ailist-request@sri-ai.arpa mod.amiga Bob Page page@ulowell.csnet mod.amiga.binaries Craig Norborg amiga-binaries-request@j.cc.purdue.edu mod.amiga.sources Craig Norborg amiga-sources-request@j.cc.purdue.edu mod.announce Mark Horton mark@cbosgd.att.com mod.announce.newusers Gene Spafford spaf@gatech.edu mod.compilers John Levine compilers-request@ima.uucp mod.comp-soc Dave Taylor comp-soc-request@hplabs.arpa mod.computers (none currently) mod.computers.68k Mike Meyer info-68k-request@ucbvax.berkeley.edu mod.computers.apollo Nathaniel Mishkin apollo-request@yale.arpa mod.computers.ibm-pc (various) info-ibmpc-request@usc-isib.arpa mod.computers.laser-printers Richard Furuta laser-lovers-request@washington.arpa mod.computers.masscomp Stan Barber masscomp-request@soma.uucp mod.computers.pyramid Mark Weiser info-pyramid-request@mimsy.umd.edu mod.computers.ridge Bill Bogstad info-ridge-request@hopkins-eecs-bravo.arpa mod.computers.sequent John Quarterman info-sequent-request@sally.utexas.edu mod.computers.sun Scott Alexander sun-spots-request@rice.edu mod.computers.vax Ramon Curiel info-vax-request@sri-kl.arpa mod.computers.workstations Dave Steiner works-request@red.rutgers.edu mod.conferences Dave Taylor taylor@hplabs.arpa mod.graphics Andy Cromarty info-graphics-request@ads.arpa mod.human-nets Charles McGrew human-nets-request@red.rutgers.edu mod.legal Mike Muuss info-law-request@brl.arpa mod.mac John M.

The only way to post to a moderated group is to mail it to the moderator. Depending on the newsgroup involved, if the moderator feels that your article is inappropriate for the group, s/he will return the article to you with a suggestion for other newsgroups in which to post it, and/or an explanation of why it is not appropriate for the moderated group. You may still post such articles to the "net" groups as you currently do, if such groups exist. If you have questions or complaints about the way a moderated group is run, contact the moderator by mail. Alternatively, you can send mail to the mailing list "moderators@cbosgd.att.COM" and it will be rebroadcast to all of the current Usenet-only newsgroup moderators. Below is a list of the current moderated groups and the moderators of those groups. Included in that list are the addresses to use if you have questions of comments about the groups. After that is given a list of addresses for submissions of articles to those groups. If your site is running 2.10.2 or later news, these addresses can be used to build the "moderators" file so that "postnews" can automatically mail an article to the correct moderator. If you are NOT running 2.10.2 news, you are *STRONGLY* advised to upgrade to it so as to take advantage of this feature, as well as the numerous bug fixes and other enhancements. The addresses are given in Internet/domain form. If a site has an Internet address, that is given in the list, otherwise a UUCP address is given. Sites reachable via other direct addresses are given in the correspondence list just below. If you are a UUCP-only site, you can mail to an ARPA (EDU, GOV, etc.)-only site by mailing through the gateways (seismo and ucbvax) using a uucp-style path. Thus, to submit an article to the mod.protocols.appletalk group, for example, mail it to: ...!{seismo,ucbvax}!c.cs.cmu.edu!info-applebus For those of you not currently using the UUCP map data, the following can be used to derive uucp mail paths: ...!{akgua,ihnp4}!abnji ...!{akgua,gatech,ihnp4,ulysses}!cbosgd ...!{seismo,topaz}!columbia!cucca!cu20b ...!{decvax,ihnp4}!decwrl ...!{akgua,decvax,philabs}!mcnc!ecsvax ...!hplabs!felix ...!{akgua,cbosgd,decvax,hplabs,ihnp4,linus,seismo}!gatech ...!{decvax,gatech,ihnp4,mcnc,seismo,ucbvax}!hplabs ...!{allegra,cbosgd,decvax,ihnp4,yale}!ima ...!{ihnp4,qantel,seismo,topaz}!lll-crg ...!ut-sally!im4u!milano ...!{cbosgd,ihnp4,mit-eddie,seismo}!mirror ...!{gatech,harvard,ihnp4}!mit-eddie ...!{akgua,cbosgd,decvax,gatech,linus,seismo}!philabs!nyit ...!decvax!genrad!panda --or-- ...!seismo!harvard!wjh12!panda ...!{cbosgd,ihnp4,seismo}!plus5 ...!{decvax,ihnp4}!pur-ee!pucc-j ...!{harvard,ihnp4,seismo}!ut-sally!rice ...!{cbosgd,decvax,gatech,ihnp4,ulysses}!seismo ...!{allegra,mcnc,uiucdcs}!convex!smu ...!harvard!spdcc ...!{gatech,sdcsvax,seismo}!drillsys!soma ...!{cbosgd,decvax,hplabs,seismo}!sun ...!{apollo,masscomp,wanginst}!ulowell ...!{cbosgd,decvax,gatech,ihnp4,ulysses}!seismo!umcp-cs ...!{harvard,ihnp4,seismo}!ut-sally ...!ucbvax!ucbopal ...!{allegra,decvax,harvard}!yale Address correspondences: cbosgd.att.com == cbosgd.uucp cu20b.columbia.edu == cu20b.uucp decwrl.dec.com == decwrl.uucp eddie.mit.edu == mit-eddie.uucp gatech.csnet == gatech.uucp gatech.edu == gatech.uucp hplabs.arpa == hplabs.uucp j.cc.purdue.edu == pucc-j.uucp lll-crg.arpa == lll-crg.uucp mimsy.umd.edu == umcp-cs.uucp red.rutgers.edu == rutgers.uucp rice.edu == rice.uucp sally.utexas.edu == ut-sally.uucp seismo.css.gov == seismo.uucp sun.arpa == sun.uucp opal.berkeley.edu == ucbopal.uucp ulowell.csnet == ulowell.uucp yale.arpa == yale.uucp yale.arpa == yalecs.bitnet Gene Spafford 1 September 1986 ------------------------------------------------------------------ Group Moderator or Coordinator Requests, Comments, etc. ------------------------------------------------------------------ mod.ai Kenneth Laws ailist-request@sri-ai.arpa mod.amiga Bob Page page@ulowell.csnet mod.amiga.binaries Craig Norborg amiga-binaries-request@j.cc.purdue.edu mod.amiga.sources Craig Norborg amiga-sources-request@j.cc.purdue.edu mod.announce Mark Horton mark@cbosgd.att.com mod.announce.newusers Gene Spafford spaf@gatech.edu mod.compilers John Levine compilers-request@ima.uucp mod.comp-soc Dave Taylor comp-soc-request@hplabs.arpa mod.computers (none currently) mod.computers.68k Mike Meyer info-68k-request@ucbvax.berkeley.edu mod.computers.apollo Luis F.

Original-from: Gene Spafford (gatech!spaf) [Most recent change: 15 September 1986 by spaf] A number of moderated groups exist on the net. These are groups which usually have one or more individuals (acting as editors and/or moderators) who must approve articles before they are published to the net. In general, these groups fall into one of five categories: 1) Groups with postings of an informative nature not suited to discussion and always originating from the same (very small) group of posters. Groups within this category include mod.newslists, mod.announce.newusers, and mod.map. 2) Groups derived from "net" groups with such a high volume that it is hard for the average reader to keep up. The moderated versions of these groups are an attempt to provide a lower volume and higher quality version of the same forum. Examples of this category include mod.announce and mod.os.unix. 3) Groups derived from "net" groups which have often been abused. That is, the "net" groups often received postings of items which were not germane to the stated topic of the group (or sometimes even within the realm of politeness for the net). This also includes groups suffering from an annoying number of duplicate postings and innappropriate followups. Moderated groups in this category include mod.sources and mod.motss. 4) Groups designed to serve also as direct feedback to an off-the-net group. The discussions in mod.std.mumps and mod.std.c fall into this category. 5) Groups which are gatewayed into the Usenet from an Arpa Internet mailing list. These groups are moderated by someone on the Internet side but are shared with the Usenet population. Submissions mailed to the proper addresses, given below, will appear in both the "mod" group on Usenet, and the Internet list. Some of these groups do not actually have a moderator, but instead act as automatic remailers to both networks.

If you are a UUCP-only site, you can mail to an ARPA (EDU, GOV, etc.)-only site by mailing through the gateways (seismo and ucbvax) using a uucp-style path.

usenet@gatech.EDU (12/01/86)
Original-from: Gene Spafford (spaf@gatech.edu) [Most recent change: 29 November 1986 by spaf@gatech.edu] A number of moderated groups exist on the net. These are groups which usually have one or more individuals (acting as editors and/or moderators) who must approve articles before they are published to the net. In general, these groups fall into one of five categories: 1) Groups with postings of an informative nature not suited to discussion and always originating from the same (very small) group of posters. Groups within this category include mod.newslists, mod.announce.newusers, and mod.map. 2) Groups derived from regular groups with such a high volume that it is hard for the average reader to keep up. The moderated versions of these groups are an attempt to provide a lower volume and higher quality version of the same forum. Examples of this category include mod.announce and mod.os.unix. 3) Groups derived from regular groups which have often been abused. That is, the regular groups often received postings of items which were not germane to the stated topic of the group (or sometimes even within the realm of politeness for the net). This also includes groups suffering from an annoying number of duplicate postings and innappropriate followups. Moderated groups in this category include mod.sources. 4) Groups designed to serve also as direct feedback to an off-the-net group. The discussions in mod.std.mumps and mod.std.c fall into this category. 5) Groups which are gatewayed into the Usenet from an Arpa Internet mailing list. These groups are moderated by someone on the Internet side but are shared with the Usenet population. Submissions mailed to the proper addresses, given below, will appear in both the "mod" group on Usenet, and the Internet list. Some of these groups do not actually have a moderator, but instead act as automatic remailers to both networks. To post to a "mod" group, write your article and mail it to the listed SUBMISSION address. The moderator will then do the actual posting of the article. The news software on the Usenet will not allow direct posting to moderated newsgroups, nor will it forward unauthorized articles to other sites. The only way to post to a moderated group is to mail it to the moderator. If you are running 2.11 news or later, your news software will automatically mail your article to the moderator if you attempt to post it. Thus, posting to a moderated newsgroup should appear the same as posting to any other group (except you don't see the posting right away). Depending on the newsgroup involved, if the moderator feels that your article is inappropriate for the group, s/he will return the article to you with a suggestion for other newsgroups in which to post it, and/or an explanation of why it is not appropriate for the moderated group. You may still post such articles to the regular groups as you currently do, if such groups exist. If you have questions or complaints about the way a moderated group is run, contact the moderator by mail. Alternatively, you can send mail to the mailing list "moderators@cbosgd.att.COM" and it will be rebroadcast to all of the current Usenet-only newsgroup moderators. Below is a list of the current moderated groups and the moderators of those groups. Included in that list are the addresses to use if you have questions of comments about the groups. After that is given a list of addresses for submissions of articles to those groups. If your site is running 2.10.2 or 2.10.3 news, these addresses can be used to build the "moderators" file so that "postnews" can automatically mail an article to the correct moderator. If your system is running 2.11 news, posting to moderated newsgroups is done by mailing your submission to well-defined aliases at a nearby backbone site. The mail path to that backbone site should be in your news library, in the file "mailpaths" -- there is no need to update a moderators file. Information on how to construct the paths in the "mailpaths" file are posted monthly in a companion article. If you are NOT running 2.11 news, you are *STRONGLY* advised to upgrade to it so as to take advantage of this feature, as well as the numerous bug fixes and other enhancements. The addresses below are given in Internet/domain form. If a site has an Internet address, that is given in the list, otherwise a UUCP address is given. Sites reachable via other direct addresses are given in the correspondence list just below.

usenet@gatech.UUCP (01/01/87)
Original-from: Gene Spafford (spaf@gatech.edu) [Most recent change: 29 December 1986 by spaf@gatech.edu] A number of moderated groups exist on the net. These are groups which usually have one or more individuals (acting as editors and/or moderators) who must approve articles before they are published to the net. In general, these groups fall into one of five categories: 1) Groups with postings of an informative nature not suited to discussion and always originating from the same (very small) group of posters. Groups within this category include news.lists, mod.announce.newusers, and mod.map. 2) Groups derived from regular groups with such a high volume that it is hard for the average reader to keep up. The moderated versions of these groups are an attempt to provide a lower volume and higher quality version of the same forum. Examples of this category include mod.announce and mod.os.unix. 3) Groups derived from regular groups which have often been abused. That is, the regular groups often received postings of items which were not germane to the stated topic of the group (or sometimes even within the realm of politeness for the net). This also includes groups suffering from an annoying number of duplicate postings and innappropriate followups. Moderated groups in this category include mod.sources. 4) Groups designed to serve also as direct feedback to an off-the-net group. The discussions in mod.std.mumps and mod.std.c fall into this category. 5) Groups which are gatewayed into the Usenet from an Arpa Internet mailing list. These groups are moderated by someone on the Internet side but are shared with the Usenet population. Submissions mailed to the proper addresses, given below, will appear in both the "mod" group on Usenet, and the Internet list. Some of these groups do not actually have a moderator, but instead act as automatic remailers to both networks. To post to a "mod" group, write your article and mail it to the listed SUBMISSION address. The moderator will then do the actual posting of the article. The news software on the Usenet will not allow direct posting to moderated newsgroups, nor will it forward unauthorized articles to other sites. The only way to post to a moderated group is to mail it to the moderator. If you are running 2.11 news or later, your news software will automatically mail your article to the moderator if you attempt to post it. Thus, posting to a moderated newsgroup should appear the same as posting to any other group (except you don't see the posting right away). Depending on the newsgroup involved, if the moderator feels that your article is inappropriate for the group, s/he will return the article to you with a suggestion for other newsgroups in which to post it, and/or an explanation of why it is not appropriate for the moderated group. You may still post such articles to the regular groups as you currently do, if such groups exist. If you have questions or complaints about the way a moderated group is run, contact the moderator by mail. Alternatively, you can send mail to the mailing list "moderators@cbosgd.att.COM" and it will be rebroadcast to all of the current Usenet-only newsgroup moderators. Below is a list of the current moderated groups and the moderators of those groups. Included in that list are the addresses to use if you have questions of comments about the groups. After that is given a list of addresses for submissions of articles to those groups. If your site is running 2.10.2 or 2.10.3 news, these addresses can be used to build the "moderators" file so that "postnews" can automatically mail an article to the correct moderator. If your system is running 2.11 news, posting to moderated newsgroups is done by mailing your submission to well-defined aliases at a nearby backbone site. The mail path to that backbone site should be in your news library, in the file "mailpaths" -- there is no need to update a moderators file. Information on how to construct the paths in the "mailpaths" file are posted monthly in a companion article. If you are NOT running 2.11 news, you are *STRONGLY* advised to upgrade to it so as to take advantage of this feature, as well as the numerous bug fixes and other enhancements. The addresses below are given in Internet/domain form. If a site has an Internet address, that is given in the list, otherwise a UUCP address is given. Sites reachable via other direct addresses are given in the correspondence list just below. If you are a UUCP-only site, you can mail to an ARPA (EDU, GOV, etc.)-only site by mailing through the gateways (seismo and ucbvax) using a uucp-style path.

usenet@gatech.UUCP (02/01/87)
Original-from: Gene Spafford (spaf@gatech.edu) [Most recent change: 13 January 1987 by spaf@gatech.edu] A number of moderated groups exist on the net. These are groups which usually have one or more individuals (acting as editors and/or moderators) who must approve articles before they are published to the net. In general, these groups fall into one of five categories: 1) Groups with postings of an informative nature not suited to discussion and always originating from the same (very small) group of posters. Groups within this category include news.lists, mod.announce.newusers, and mod.map. 2) Groups derived from regular groups with such a high volume that it is hard for the average reader to keep up. The moderated versions of these groups are an attempt to provide a lower volume and higher quality version of the same forum. Examples of this category include mod.announce and mod.os.unix. 3) Groups derived from regular groups which have often been abused. That is, the regular groups often received postings of items which were not germane to the stated topic of the group (or sometimes even within the realm of politeness for the net). This also includes groups suffering from an annoying number of duplicate postings and innappropriate followups. Moderated groups in this category include mod.sources. 4) Groups designed to serve also as direct feedback to an off-the-net group. The discussions in mod.std.mumps and mod.std.c fall into this category. 5) Groups which are gatewayed into the Usenet from an Arpa Internet mailing list. These groups are moderated by someone on the Internet side but are shared with the Usenet population. Submissions mailed to the proper addresses, given below, will appear in both the "mod" group on Usenet, and the Internet list. Some of these groups do not actually have a moderator, but instead act as automatic remailers to both networks. To post to a "mod" group, write your article and mail it to the listed SUBMISSION address. The moderator will then do the actual posting of the article. The news software on the Usenet will not allow direct posting to moderated newsgroups, nor will it forward unauthorized articles to other sites. The only way to post to a moderated group is to mail it to the moderator. If you are running 2.11 news or later, your news software will automatically mail your article to the moderator if you attempt to post it. Thus, posting to a moderated newsgroup should appear the same as posting to any other group (except you don't see the posting right away). Depending on the newsgroup involved, if the moderator feels that your article is inappropriate for the group, s/he will return the article to you with a suggestion for other newsgroups in which to post it, and/or an explanation of why it is not appropriate for the moderated group. You may still post such articles to the regular groups as you currently do, if such groups exist. If you have questions or complaints about the way a moderated group is run, contact the moderator by mail. Alternatively, you can send mail to the mailing list "moderators@cbosgd.att.COM" and it will be rebroadcast to all of the current Usenet-only newsgroup moderators. Below is a list of the current moderated groups and the moderators of those groups. Included in that list are the addresses to use if you have questions of comments about the groups. After that is given a list of addresses for submissions of articles to those groups. If your site is running 2.10.2 or 2.10.3 news, these addresses can be used to build the "moderators" file so that "postnews" can automatically mail an article to the correct moderator. If your system is running 2.11 news, posting to moderated newsgroups is done by mailing your submission to well-defined aliases at a nearby backbone site. The mail path to that backbone site should be in your news library, in the file "mailpaths" -- there is no need to update a moderators file. Information on how to construct the paths in the "mailpaths" file are posted monthly in a companion article. If you are NOT running 2.11 news, you are *STRONGLY* advised to upgrade to it so as to take advantage of this feature, as well as the numerous bug fixes and other enhancements. The addresses below are given in Internet/domain form. If a site has an Internet address, that is given in the list, otherwise a UUCP address is given. Sites reachable via other direct addresses are given in the correspondence list just below. If you are a UUCP-only site, you can mail to an ARPA (EDU, GOV, etc.)-only site by mailing through the gateways (seismo and ucbvax) using a uucp-style path.

usenet@gatech.UUCP (03/01/87)
Original-from: Gene Spafford (spaf@gatech.edu) [Most recent change: 26 January 1987 by spaf@gatech.edu] A number of moderated groups exist on the net. These are groups which usually have one or more individuals (acting as editors and/or moderators) who must approve articles before they are published to the net. In general, these groups fall into one of five categories: 1) Groups with postings of an informative nature not suited to discussion and always originating from the same (very small) group of posters. Groups within this category include news.lists, mod.announce.newusers, and mod.map. 2) Groups derived from regular groups with such a high volume that it is hard for the average reader to keep up. The moderated versions of these groups are an attempt to provide a lower volume and higher quality version of the same forum. Examples of this category include mod.announce and mod.os.unix. 3) Groups derived from regular groups which have often been abused. That is, the regular groups often received postings of items which were not germane to the stated topic of the group (or sometimes even within the realm of politeness for the net). This also includes groups suffering from an annoying number of duplicate postings and innappropriate followups. Moderated groups in this category include mod.sources. 4) Groups designed to serve also as direct feedback to an off-the-net group. The discussions in mod.std.mumps and mod.std.c fall into this category. 5) Groups which are gatewayed into the Usenet from an Arpa Internet mailing list. These groups are moderated by someone on the Internet side but are shared with the Usenet population. Submissions mailed to the proper addresses, given below, will appear in both the "mod" group on Usenet, and the Internet list. Some of these groups do not actually have a moderator, but instead act as automatic remailers to both networks. To post to a "mod" group, write your article and mail it to the listed SUBMISSION address. The moderator will then do the actual posting of the article. The news software on the Usenet will not allow direct posting to moderated newsgroups, nor will it forward unauthorized articles to other sites. The only way to post to a moderated group is to mail it to the moderator. If you are running 2.11 news or later, your news software will automatically mail your article to the moderator if you attempt to post it. Thus, posting to a moderated newsgroup should appear the same as posting to any other group (except you don't see the posting right away). Depending on the newsgroup involved, if the moderator feels that your article is inappropriate for the group, s/he will return the article to you with a suggestion for other newsgroups in which to post it, and/or an explanation of why it is not appropriate for the moderated group. You may still post such articles to the regular groups as you currently do, if such groups exist. If you have questions or complaints about the way a moderated group is run, contact the moderator by mail. Alternatively, you can send mail to the mailing list "moderators@cbosgd.att.COM" and it will be rebroadcast to all of the current Usenet-only newsgroup moderators. Below is a list of the current moderated groups and the moderators of those groups. Included in that list are the addresses to use if you have questions of comments about the groups. After that is given a list of addresses for submissions of articles to those groups. If your site is running 2.10.2 or 2.10.3 news, these addresses can be used to build the "moderators" file so that "postnews" can automatically mail an article to the correct moderator. If your system is running 2.11 news, posting to moderated newsgroups is done by mailing your submission to well-defined aliases at a nearby backbone site. The mail path to that backbone site should be in your news library, in the file "mailpaths" -- there is no need to update a moderators file. Information on how to construct the paths in the "mailpaths" file are posted monthly in a companion article. If you are NOT running 2.11 news, you are *STRONGLY* advised to upgrade to it so as to take advantage of this feature, as well as the numerous bug fixes and other enhancements. The addresses below are given in Internet/domain form. If a site has an Internet address, that is given in the list, otherwise a UUCP address is given. Sites reachable via other direct addresses are given in the correspondence list just below. If you are a UUCP-only site, you can mail to an ARPA (EDU, GOV, etc.)-only site by mailing through the gateways (seismo and ucbvax) using a uucp-style path.

usenet@gatech.UUCP (04/01/87)
Original-from: Gene Spafford (spaf@gatech.edu) [Most recent change: 31 March 1987 by spaf@gatech.edu] A number of moderated groups exist on the net. These are groups which usually have one or more individuals (acting as editors and/or moderators) who must approve articles before they are published to the net. In general, these groups fall into one of five categories: 1) Groups with postings of an informative nature not suited to discussion and always originating from the same (very small) group of posters. Groups within this category include news.lists, mod.announce.newusers, and mod.map. 2) Groups derived from regular groups with such a high volume that it is hard for the average reader to keep up. The moderated versions of these groups are an attempt to provide a lower volume and higher quality version of the same forum. Examples of this category include mod.announce and mod.os.unix. 3) Groups derived from regular groups which have often been abused. That is, the regular groups often received postings of items which were not germane to the stated topic of the group (or sometimes even within the realm of politeness for the net). This also includes groups suffering from an annoying number of duplicate postings and innappropriate followups. Moderated groups in this category include mod.sources. 4) Groups designed to serve also as direct feedback to an off-the-net group. The discussions in mod.std.mumps and mod.std.c fall into this category. 5) Groups which are gatewayed into the Usenet from an Arpa Internet mailing list. These groups are moderated by someone on the Internet side but are shared with the Usenet population. Submissions mailed to the proper addresses, given below, will appear in both the "mod" group on Usenet, and the Internet list. Some of these groups do not actually have a moderator, but instead act as automatic remailers to both networks. To post to a "mod" group, write your article and mail it to the listed SUBMISSION address. The moderator will then do the actual posting of the article. The news software on the Usenet will not allow direct posting to moderated newsgroups, nor will it forward unauthorized articles to other sites. The only way to post to a moderated group is to mail it to the moderator. If you are running 2.11 news or later, your news software will automatically mail your article to the moderator if you attempt to post it. Thus, posting to a moderated newsgroup should appear the same as posting to any other group (except you don't see the posting right away). Depending on the newsgroup involved, if the moderator feels that your article is inappropriate for the group, s/he will return the article to you with a suggestion for other newsgroups in which to post it, and/or an explanation of why it is not appropriate for the moderated group. You may still post such articles to the regular groups as you currently do, if such groups exist. If you have questions or complaints about the way a moderated group is run, contact the moderator by mail. Alternatively, you can send mail to the mailing list "moderators@cbosgd.att.COM" and it will be rebroadcast to all of the current Usenet-only newsgroup moderators. Below is a list of the current moderated groups and the moderators of those groups. Included in that list are the addresses to use if you have questions of comments about the groups. After that is given a list of addresses for submissions of articles to those groups. If your site is running 2.10.2 or 2.10.3 news, these addresses can be used to build the "moderators" file so that "postnews" can automatically mail an article to the correct moderator. If your system is running 2.11 news, posting to moderated newsgroups is done by mailing your submission to well-defined aliases at a nearby backbone site. The mail path to that backbone site should be in your news library, in the file "mailpaths" -- there is no need to update a moderators file. Information on how to construct the paths in the "mailpaths" file are posted monthly in a companion article. If you are NOT running 2.11 news, you are *STRONGLY* advised to upgrade to it so as to take advantage of this feature, as well as the numerous bug fixes and other enhancements. The addresses below are given in Internet/domain form. If a site has an Internet address, that is given in the list, otherwise a UUCP address is given. Sites reachable via other direct addresses are given in the correspondence list just below. If you are a UUCP-only site, you can mail to an ARPA (EDU, GOV, etc.)-only site by mailing through the gateways (seismo and ucbvax) using a uucp-style path.
