nisc@NISC.SRI.COM (SRI's NIC) (09/20/90)
The popular Interest Groups (List-of-Lists) file has a new home. This file provides a list of various discussion lists available to network electronic mail users. The file is now available for anonymous FTP from host ftp.nisc.sri.com (192.33.33.53) in directory netinfo. The pathname of the file is netinfo/interest-groups. There is currently no electronic mail access to this file. To keep people informed about changes to the file, there is a mailing list for List-of-Lists "update notices". When any updates are made to the file, an announcement message will be sent to the notification list. Copies of the file itself will not be sent to the list. Site representatives who maintain or redistribute copies of this file for their own networks (e.g, DECNet, Xerox, BitNet, MailNet, etc.) and who cannot access the file by Internet FTP may make arrangements to have the file sent to them, if necessary. File copies will normally not be sent to individual users. To get on or off the notification list, send requests to interest-groups-request@nisc.sri.com. To submit new descriptions of mailing lists, to update existing information, or to delete old mailing list information from the List-of-Lists, send a message to interest-groups-request@nisc.sri.com. The NISC depends on the network user population to inform us of changes to any of the network lists. We appreciate your cooperation! Thanks to Rich Zellich for the many years of effort that he put into maintaining this file. Sadly, circumstances have changed and it was not possible to continue the arrangement that worked so well over those years. SRI International Network Information Systems Center
