Subject: Info-Mac Status Report
To all Info-Mac Readers:
I believe I now have answered all the old mail that had accumulated in
the Info-Mac-Request mailbox. If you haven't received a reply to a
query sent more than 2 weeks ago, please resend it. It's possible we've
lost it in the shuffle or in a disk crash.
To clear up the request mail, I've let the archives slide for a while.
Catching up on that is the next order of business (over 7MB of binaries
as of today--ouch!). I will try (with emphasis on "try"--I sometimes
forget) to send a "receipt" signifying when all parts of your postings
reach Sumex, but that does NOT mean I've archived it yet. It just means
it reached here. For now, please assume that anything you've already
sent made it here safely. I don't want to have to weed through two
copies of everything because I'm behind on receipts.
Jon Pugh and I hold down fulltime jobs unrelated to Info-Mac, so you may
never see incredible turnaround times on requests or postings. When do
we handle Info-Mac? On the weekends mostly. I sometimes login during
the weekday evenings since some requests seem urgent, but I usually
can't stay on for too many hours (I like to eat and sleep occasionally).
Info-Mac is something we volunteer to do because we believe in its
value. We have our good days and our bad days just like everyone else.
I have no idea how long we will last, but I'll probably keep at it until
I croak or leave Stanford, whichever comes first.
I'm told that Sumex is "half way through a 5-year phaseout." What does
that mean for Info-Mac? I don't know, but perhaps something can be
arranged since the computing resources provided by the Sumex DEC-2060
will later be provided by a Sun-4 and Mac IIs running A/UX. I'll do
what I can to stay on top of this story, especially if Info-Mac must
leave Stanford.
Administrivia:
o Anything you want placed in an Info-Mac Digest (including binaries)
should be mailed to
Info-Mac@Sumex-Aim.Stanford.Edu.
Everything else should go to
Info-Mac-Request@Sumex-Aim.Stanford.Edu.
o Some Bitnet sites were cut off by a combination of two things:
OREGON1 is no longer an Info-Mac hub AND Stanford's Bitnet list
disappeared when the forwarding computer changed. With the help of Mark
Williamson at Rice University, we are slowly fixing things and hopefully
making them easier to administer.
