[comp.dcom.telecom] Warning to All! Archives Being Cleaned Out

telecom@eecs.nwu.edu (TELECOM Moderator) (07/16/89)

Because the Telecom Archives at bu-cs.bu.edu is becoming *very* crowded,
with eight years of digests and many other articles, it will be
necessary in the near future to take the oldest issues of the Digest, from
the period 1981 through 1986 and put them on tape.

Once they are on tape, they can be accessed -- it just takes more work,
and intervention by a human operator to load the tape, etc.

A word of warning: If you want anything from those old issues, get it now.
They do make good reading, but much of the information is of course very
dated and useless today.

They will be in place for at least a few more days if there is anything
you'd like to get.
