This is the 7th mailing of the AmigaUsers Compendium List. The idea of this list is to provide a database of users with a common background of the Amiga. Having your name on the list shows others your interests on the Amiga and the possibility of being able to help others out. The current list now has 128 names. Each entry in the list has the following format. Last Name, Given Name Occupation, Company/Educat. Inst. City,Prov/State Email Address System Configuration (ie Major Hardware/Rom version/Hard drive etc) Key-Numbers (more information about this below) Comment Line (ONE line only) Key Numbers are numbers which will serve as an index into a list of 'interest' groups. These groups are ones that you might be able to answer questions in, or just areas that you are interested in. The numbers should be seperated by a SINGLE space and not a comma. Each entry is limited to FIVE (5, cinq, V) lines. An example entry in the proper format would be the following: Kilroy, Joe Grad Student, University of HardKnocks Erehwon, Prost uunet!{site1, site2}!jackson!hell!kilroy 2000, 1.3, 1 MB, 1080, HardFrame, Conner CP3100, Yamaha D-7, SuperMidi 1.1 5.2 3.1 1.3 1.2 Solid knowledge of graphics, and avid game player, and midi expert Also provided with the Compendium is a program that will read in the list and will allow you to pull names based on the key numbers. I have broken down interest groups into main groups and then into sub-groups. So key number 6.2 would be Group 6 (Graphics) and sub-group 2 (Art). Marking group 6.0 (ie the Group title) means you are interested in all areas of Amiga Graphics and/or are willing to answers questions on them. The Interest groups are listed below. Lets make this work everyone. This is your chance to help others and get help from others. You will also be able to find out more about those 'others' on the net.

NOTICE: Due to lack of spare time, and the fact I am probably going to be selling my system, I am looking for someone to take over this Compendium. The person should have access to the regular utilities to post things to the net (uuencode, shar, Pnews|postnews) as well an Amiga C compiler (preferably Manx) for the executable. If you feel you want to do this on a more regular basis then I have (ie do it monthly, instead of quasi-monthly) then drop me some email at the address listed in this message. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the 9th mailing of the AmigaUsers Compendium List.
