Why not create a private 6386 newsgroup similat to the unix-pc one? Dave Berk

Solinas - >Please include me too. >Why not create a private 6386 newsgroup similat to the unix-pc one? >Dave Berk The idea of a 6386 newsgroup sounds like a good idea to me! I'm sure there a lot of people out there with software, (and probelms (oh, and of course complaints)) for machines running System V/386 (or whatever), of which I am one. As to the AT&T 6386 mailing list, if there is one, could I too be added? Tom Hintz hintz@tramp.colordo.edu ncar!boulder!tramp!hintz

[ and two more like it ] As I told Al, I'm not aware of a 6386 mailing list per se, but would like to know about one if it exists. There's an 80386 mailing list and one that I coordinate for the PC 63xx. We have 6386 owners/users on our list as well as 6300, 6310, 6312, and 6300 PLUS. The latter is the majority of the membership since the list started over a year ago for the PLUS. There is a sublist for people who want general interest and only DOS, another for general interest and UNIX and DOS. There are over 100 people on the list including some card carrying gurus inside and outside AT&T. In my opinion (natch) the signal to noise ratio is quite high and our record for solving problems is quite good. There is a small ceremony required to verify a two way mail path before being added to the list, but that's the only restriction. Gossip and grumbling are permitted, flames are promptly extinguished. The list is not a "reflector", each contribution is read (sometimes commented on) before it is sent on. Some very common questions (e.g. what hard drives work on the PLUS?, what is the latest 6300 BIOS ROM release?) are answered by return email and not forwarded to the list at large. Whew! That sounded like an ad, but it wasn't really just an invitation to join our list if the 6386 people don't find one of their own. If there is sufficient interest, I would not object to setting up another sub-list for 6386 only discussion (like the DOS only and heavy tech sub-lists). A preferred mail path for asking to get on the list would be: lll-winken!abhg!ssbn!bill or { att | killer | uunet!bigtex | bellcore } !texbell!ssbn!bill The paths in .signature are OK too, but the above are how the mailing list is sent out, so it makes it easier if that's how you send your request in. >Why not create a private 6386 newsgroup similar to the unix-pc one? > >Dave Berk That's an interesting idea. Interesting because each time that I have polled the 63xx mailing list about becomeing a newsgroup it has been soundly defeated, most recently by 60-2. I'm not sure why they are so adamant about it but I have quit asking. -- Bill Kennedy usenet {killer,att,cs.utexas.edu,sun!daver}!ssbn!bill internet bill@ssbn.WLK.COM

I have arranged to have a mailing list set up for the AT&T 6386. To subscribe to this list send mail to LISTSERV@VMD.CSO.UIUC.EDU that contains the following line: SUBSCRIBE ATT386-L <your full name> The LISTSERV will notify you, by mail, when you have been added to the list. (Bitnet users should send an on-line message to LISTSERV@UIUCVMD that contains the same text) To submit an article, or posting, send mail to ATT386-L@VMD.CSO.UIUC.EDU. DO NOT send subscription requests to this address!! Your mail will be automatically distributed to those who have subscribed to this list. Also, LISTSERV automatically keeps an archive of all postings. For additional information on LISTSERV commands, send mail to LISTSERV@VMD.CSO.UIUC.EDU that contains the line INFO. Any problems subscribing to the list or help with LISTSERV commands can be sent to me at IFNXDML@UXG.CSO.UIUC.EDU. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ David Lyle ifnxdml@uicvmc.bitnet University of Illinois Foundation ifnxdml@uxg.cso.uiuc.edu (217) 333-0810
