Folks, Thanks to Cary Farrier and Erik Fair, Info-Apple will not be shutdown and will continue to operate as in the past, with one important exception. The list has moved to apple.com. To send mail to info-apple, you should now post it to: info-apple@apple.com You should send requests for subscription service to info-apple-request@apple.com. Other than these, you should notice no change in your Info-Apple subscription. In order to ease the burden of transition, BRL.MIL will provide forwarding for these two mailboxes for about a month. Please, however, while you are thinking about it, make whatever changes you must in order to effect the cutover. I will, of course, keep in touch with you folks by Usenet. (To be sure all the kinks are worked out, I will receive Info-Apple by e-mail for a few more weeks.) It has been my personal pleasure to have met so many of you over the years and to have made some fine friends upon whom I have never really laid eyes. Stay in touch, and I shall do the same. Cheers, _Brint Cooper

Personally, I would like to extend thanks and appreciation to Brint Cooper who has looked after info-apple from its inception and put up with no small amount of grief and occasional late hours keeping the list going. Through no fault of his, this is one of the most verbose lists in Christendom so when things go wrong (such as infinte mail loops) the problems are VAST. Brint also was kind enough to expend time and energy making sure that those of us without access to USENET (a pretty small fraction of the total readership really) would continue to have access to the list. Since I've been copied on most of the mail which led to the happy (and entirely logical) solution to make Apple itself the 'source' of info :-) I have first hand knowldege that the move didn't happen by chance. I think the list carries quite enough <ahem> 'nontechnical' mail as it is, and I suspect Brint doesn't need to hear from EVERYONE individually (might be fun to receive more than 1,000 messages in one day what ;-), but I believe our debt to him needs to be acknowledged just this once. /s Murph <Sewall%UConnVM.BITNET@CUNYVM.CUNY.Edu> [Internet] or ...{psuvax1 or mcvax}!uconnvm.bitnet!sewall [UUCP] + Standard disclaimer applies ("The opinions expressed are my own" etc.)

The list has moved to apple.com. Alright! This is probably one of the most positive steps I've seen Apple take in a while. Direct support of the info-apple gateway is a really cool gesture on apple's behalf. Good job Cary and Erik! :-) andy -- Andy Nicholas GEnie, AM-Online: shrinkit Box 435, Moravian College CompuServe: 70771,2615 Bethlehem, PA 18018 InterNET: shrinkit@moravian.edu
