Dear Info-Modula-2 list recipients,
I have decided to give up administration of the list to concentrate on
my academic courses. After September 15th, 1987, the list will have a
new home. Your new list administrators will be on Bitnet: Thomas
Habernoll of Technische U Berlin and Jim Ennis of U Central Florida.
The new addresses will be:
info-m2@db0tui11.bitnet (DB zero TUI eleven) or
info-m2@ucf1vm.bitnet (UCF one VM)
for postings (either address, but not both) and
editor@ucf1vm.bitnet
for administrative mail (additions, deletions, etc).
For a limited period, info-modula-2 and info-modula-2-request at
cs.rochester.edu will forward to the new addresses. Administrators of
local redistributions should take this chance to edit any forwarding
addresses in their local setup. Also, if you have a non-Bitnet address
and can get a better feed from Bitnet instead of Rochester, send an
administrative note to us.
Thank you for all your support in the past. I have enjoyed the high
technical quality of the postings to the list. Please give your support
to the new administrators.
Live long and prosper.
Ken
The updated information packet for this mailing list follows:
-----
INFO-M2@ucf1vm.Bitnet
INFO-M2@db0tui11.Bitnet
(was Info-Modula-2@CS.ROCHESTER.EDU)
A discussion list for the Modula-2 programming language. Modula-2 is a
language by Niklaus Wirth which extends the Pascal foundation by providing
an updated statement syntax (generalized LOOP, EXIT, RETURN, no GOTO),
separate compilation with a module (compilation unit) broken into
specification and implementation parts with importing and exporting of
objects, controlled machine level access, and concurrent programming and
coroutines. Modula-2 has most of the power of Ada but is small enough
that excellent full implementations exist for CP/M 80.
