[news.config] amdcad may be down in late December

cdr@amdcad.AMD.COM (Carl Rigney) (12/16/88)

amdcad is the UUCP mail gateway for the .AMD.COM domain.
It also has rather sick disks.

AMD is having a plant shutdown from Friday 12/16 17:00 to Monday 1/2
8:00, so sometime in that interval we're going to take amdcad down and
reformat all its disks.  It shouldn't be down for more than a day, but
we've all heard that before.  You may want to route around us until 1/2.

For our immediate neighbors, if you notice amdcad mail backed up for
more than two days give us a call at the numbers listed below.  Our
UUCP Neighbors are:  allegra andante amdahl ames apple atari att cae780

intelca light lll-crg lll-lcc magic magicnw metaware mtxinu plus5
phoenix pyramid qtc redwood research riacs sco sun sun0 tymix ucbvax
uiucdcs unisoft uport uunet tea versatc weitek well.  If you think
you talk to us and you're not on this list, or vice versa, give Carl
a call.

I'll post again when we're stable, but I don't really anticipate any
difficulties.  This note is just to let everyone know what happened to
us if we go off the air, since we're the gateway to some 500 sites.

Happy Holidays, everyone!
