[comp.dcom.telecom] Special Issue This Weekend: Test Numbers

telecom@eecs.nwu.edu (TELECOM Moderator) (11/23/90)

David Leibold has sent us a lengthy file listing special prefixes and
test numbers for various locations throughout the USA and Canada. Not
all communities are listed, but quite a bit of information is
available in this file.

I'll be transmitting it sometime Saturday.

Another large file has come to the Digest from Jeff Sicherman which
provides a detailed overview of the GEnie service. Some could argue
that it is essentially an advertisement for GEnie, but it seems to be
a worthwhile reference document which explains the service in detail.
I am placing this file directly in the Telecom Archives for interested
readers. It will be available in the archives sometime over the
weekend in the main directory.

Thanks to both Jeff and David for these contributions.
