Holzlein The decision (and voting) about a comp.apple.binaries is a USENET issue. I'm not completely familiar with CMU's net memberships, but I believe you are essentially a bitnet site with (perhaps) an arpa gateway. I do know that andrew is an internal CMS network with a gateway to bitnet. If my understanding of your network affiliation is correct, neither you nor I can take on the responsibility for a vote. I wish you could; thanks for the offer. I'm at a bitnet site, documenation for "voting" procedures does NOT exist here. I can offer only moral support. An andrew address OUGHT to be able to send mail to LISTSERV@BROWNVM containing commands (you can, at least, take advantage of APPLE2-L I believe). Have you tried mailing: INDEX APPLE2-L (to LISTSERV@BROWNVM)? PLEASE NOTE (because an unbelievable number of people get it wrong) that commands MUST be sent to LISTSERV. If commands are sent to me (I think people who do that use the "reply" function without paying attention to where the "reply" is going), I will bounce them back (since I am not a mindless, robotic mailer daemon, I often include sarcasm, snide remarks or similar attention getters that not everyone accepts in good humor), so try hard not to do that. --------------------- Disclaimer: I like my opinions better than my employers anyway...
