If you run uucp, tell if new sites can call you, if you will poll them, what your policy is. Will poll locally. Interested in a more direct connection to the USENET backbone. There will probably be some more department machines on USENET, fed by ut-sally, and possibly some other local machines, as well. If on the arpanet, are you willing to forward news on to new sites by establishing an arpanet usenet connection? Negotiable. If you want to publish your uucp phone number, login, and password, include that info. Call us for that information. -- John Quarterman, {ihnp4,allegra,gatech}!ut-ngp!ut-sally!jsq, jsq@utexas-11.ARPA
