telecom@eecs.nwu.edu (TELECOM Moderator) (03/18/91)
This is just a note to advise readers of comp.dcom.telecom that distribution of TELECOM Digest is now handled a little differently than in the past. Previously, each issue of the Digest was being gatewayed to accuvax (or casbah).acns.nwu.edu for posting. The procedure now is that the articles are sent direct to a few well-connected nntp servers using 'nntpxmit', and transmitted directly into the news stream, bypassing inews and other preliminaries here completely. Early results have been encouraging. Many of you will see different path lines -- often considerably shorter -- than in the past. Naturally I can only use nntpxmit with sites which have authorized me to do so (or allow anyone to do so by default). The three or four sites I am using now are working quite nicely. Let me know if you see anything wrong or encounter problems. PAT
