ANDERSON.ES@Xerox.ARPA (03/29/84)
This is to announce a new distribution list for the purpose of discussing issues and exchanging ideas pertaining to VLSI Computer Aided Design and Layout. I hope for this DL to encompass a broad range of topics including but not limited to: VLSI CAD/CAE/CAM hardware, software, layout, design, techniques, programming, fracturing, PG, plotting, maintenance, vendors, bugs, workstations, DRC, ERC, system management, peripheral equipment, design verification, testing, benchmarking, archiving procedures, etc. etc. The distribution list itself resides on the Xerox Ethernet. Ethernet users can send messages to CADinterest^.es. Arpanet, Milnet, Usenet, and other Internet users can send messages to CADinterest^.es@PARC-MAXC. Anyone on the Xerox Ethernet may add themselves using Maintain. Arpanet, Milnet, Usenet, and other Internet users should send a request to me (Anderson.es@PARC-MAXC) and I will add you to the DL. I will also add whole DL's if requested by the owner. The people in the cc: section of the header are already on the DL. Following is a type out of the DL entry.

Depending on how large it gets, I hope to keep it as anything goes and see what happens for a while. I will wait a week before sending any messages to the DL in order to allow people to be added to the DL. If we get some good informative discussions going, I will try to archive the responses or maybe go to a digest format. Thank you for your indulgance.
