Sorry to post this to the net, but I am trying to find out how one get's
their hands on the stuff that Eliot Lear is doing on the Arpa Net. Is
the Info Amiga Digest archived somewhere? Is it possible to get on a
mailing list for it (I have apra access). I sent a message to Eliot and
never got a reply, I am not sure if it was eaten or what.
Love the VT100 2.6 (using it now). I will take a while to get used to
having the delete key in the right place again.

is on hiatus (?sp) until the end of school (mid may) unless someone
else wants to pick it up. The volume of comp.sys.amiga is just
ridiculous for me to handle while I am in classes.

Hi all,
As some of you know, I came down with a case of Mono March/April which
brought info-amiga to a halt. I would now like to start it up again
but I find it very hard to do so due to the volume. What I had been
doing was taking articles from USENET, removing the superfluous and
illegal ones (ARPAnet has a strict set of rules), and posting them in
digest format. This works up till the point where we were getting 30
messages per day to comp.sys.amiga. That translates into roughly 3
digests depending on the size of the messages which translates into
roughly 2 hours work per day for me. At this point, I am not in a
position to offer 2 hours of my time - it just isn't there.
As a result, I would like to change the format and input of the
digest. This message is a call for comments and suggestions on how
to do that while still being an effective digest for the Internet.
Here are some of the things that come to mind to me:
o Break the USENET connection and take input only directly
sent to the digest.
o Limit discussion to topics such as new product
announcements, software reviews, bug reports with fixes,
and other topics EXCLUDING the how-to discussion and
debating that goes on with comp.sys.amiga. I do not claim
that such discussion is bad, just that it takes up lots of
bandwith.
Would anyone be interested in a digest of this form? Nothing said in
this article is written in stone but I would like to know what
people's opinions are.
