[net.news.group] who wants fa.info-kermit?

stuart@ncoast.UUCP (Stuart Freedman) (10/23/84)

I am currently on the INFO-KERMIT mailing list and it occurred to me that
it might be much more efficient (providing that many uucp sites are interested
in this newsgroup) for someone to gateway it.  I would not mind gatewaying
it myself, as I already post it locally for others to read, but I think that
an ARPA site would be a much better gateway...

If there is a consensus to create ???.info-kermit, BRL-TGR.ARPA can
serve as a two-way gateway for that newsgroup.

I vote yes for fa.info-kermit.  I wonder if the gateway site
(whoever it may be) would be willing to also maintain the 
current Kermit source archives and send various versions out
to people on Usenet?  Kermit comes with an open invitation to
make copies for non-commercial use, so this shouldn't be a
problem from a legal point of view.  The best thing about Kermit
is that it is built upon by contributors who ask for nothing
but recognition in return for their labors.

I vote yes for info-kermit.  Kermit is neat.  Info-kermit is neat too,
but I can't get the people at columbia to deliver it to me!

For arpa-net, anlams has the name ANL-MCS.  I have been having trouble
getting mail from arpa-net through anlams so maybe try a different route
or the user name "s".

I vote yes for Kermit info.  Such information would let Usenet discuss Kermit,
as ARPA and BITNET already do.  Kermit supports more systems than any other
public domain software for communications.
