Apologies, good people, but my mailbox is filled to bursting and most of my replies seem to be bouncing like holiday checks.... ;-) In apparent response to my posting of some patches to UNaXcess Conferencing 1.0.2, I've been receiving quite a bit of mail asking me to mail or post it. Since at least two of these are from Europe and some of my other responses bounced, I'd prefer to point people to their local comp.sources.unix archives (NOT comp.sources.misc, then known as net.sources!); it was posted in February or March of 1987. (I forget exactly... it came out after another of these holiday hiatuses (hiatii?) that Rich gives us every year for Christmas/Hanukkah/what-have-you. ;-) -- Brandon S.

OS/2: Half an operating system for half a computer.

I take this quip as a minor blow to necntc's reputation :-) necntc has been providing ncoast with reliable email service as well as an east coast distribution point for comp.sources.misc for some time. ncoast (as well as all the other sites necntc has links to) has been communicated with as regularly as possible given that necntc has suffered hardware failures of late (see news.coinfig) - I just checked and ncoast has three failed polls (DIAL FAILED) 1 (NO DEVICE) and a good conversation at about 8am EST - (since midnight 1-13-88) FYI, -jj

TO ALL SITES SENDING MAILING LIST TRAFFIC TO NCOAST VIA NECNTC: I have sent mail to as many of you as possible, but I'm not sure it got through in all cases, so... When I signed ncoast up for various mailing lists, the ncoast!necntc link did not exist. When it came into existence, most of the mailing lists immediately rerouted themselves (via smail, I assume) through necntc. Please note that the necntc link is NOT intended for high volume mail! The link will be severed if the mail volume gets too large -- which it has in the case of some mailing lists. To summarize: Please do NOT use smail/pathalias routing data to send to ncoast via a mailing list! The proper link for high volume mail is the path cbosgd!mandrill!hal!ncoast Do NOT use the other links (necntc, mandrill, uccba, hnsurg3, hoptoad, or the direct cbosgd connection)! None of these sites wishes to carry a high volume of mail traffic to ncoast. Thank you for your compliance with these guidelines. -- Brandon S.

This applies to all mailing lists and all mail not directed to comp.sources.misc. Thank you. (This message provided by myself and Jeff Janock <necntc!jj>.)
