[comp.sys.att] May I do periodic postings?

ulmo@ssyx.ucsc.edu (Brad Allen) (03/02/89)

I have recently come to find comp.sys.att useful.
However, many groups on USENET tend to lack a feature of longstanding
information that is easily available.

I'd like to start out by posting biweekly (every two weeks)
the list of ftp sites that someone gave me, with a little blurb attached
to the top of it that any requests, modifications, etc. to the posting
be sent to me.

How does this sound?

I believe a similar list is already compiled and is posted regularly to
comp.sources.unix, but if you don't get comp.sources.unix then you
don't get the list.  I believe it's reposted every couple of months.
If I remember right, the list was VERY long.  If you post it here, I'd
suggest posting it not more than once/month.

Best wishes,
