jsq@longway.tic.com (John S. Quarterman) (12/20/89)
From: John S. Quarterman <jsq@longway.tic.com> Well, it seems the two of four access postings I posted so far had Expires: 1 Feb 89. It would appear that C news is a) widespread in Toronto and Quebec and b) detects incoming articles that have already expired, since that's where I first heard about this problem. I'm reposting those two articles, plus the other two. If they're already on your machine, please ignore. Thanks. PS: The information in these articles is in the public domain, and may be reused by anyone. However, collecting and collating it was a time-consuming task, and we would appreciate acknowledgment if you use large extracts verbatim. As to who ``we'' is, I quote from the calendar article: These articles were originated by John S. Quarterman of TIC, Austin, Texas. This issue of December 1989 was researched by Susanne W. Smith of Windsound Consulting, Edmonds, Washington <sws@calvin.wa.com>. In addition, there has been collaboration by Alain Williams of EUUG and Ellie Young of USENIX, as well as folks from JUS, AUUG, and numerous other organizations. -- John S.
