[comp.sys.mac] Announcing the beginning of comp.binaries.mac

bytebug@felix.UUCP (Roger L. Long) (04/28/87)

I'm back from my honeymoon and I posted the first article to comp.binaries.mac
this morning.  Please look for it and let your system administrator or news
administrator know if you don't find it.  The header for this article is:

	From: peterj@rosevax.Rosemount.COM (Peter Juhl)
	Newsgroups: comp.binaries.mac
	Subject: LAZlife 2.0c
	Message-ID: <2650@felix.UUCP>
	Date: 28 Apr 87 13:38:52 GMT
	Sender: macintosh@felix.UUCP

Which brings me to my next quest:

	improving the propagation of comp.binaries.mac and comp.sources.mac

Frankly, the part I like least about moderating the Macintosh groups is
responding to people who miss bits and pieces of what is posted.  At least,
with the groups moderated, we don't see the group fill up with "please repost"
type messages.  But judging by the increase in mail I'm receiving lately,
there are black holes out there sucking up Macintosh software.

How can you help?

If you are a site that receives value from these groups, support them by
sending me mail to volunteer to set up a UUCP/news connection to receive (and
pass on) these groups directly.  I'm most interested in finding sites who
would be willing to call me; 1200/2400 baud dial-in is supported.  If this
sounds like something your site can do, have your system administrator and/or
news adminstrator send me mail including:

	- name
	- function (system/news administrator or other)
	- system name
	- telephone number I can reach you at (including best time to call)

Thanks.
