The Sun User's Group has appointed me to be the Acting Chairman for their Technical Committee. I would like all of those interested in participating on this committee to send me email, US mail, or phone. Please indicated how much you would like to be involved. It is currently planned to have a technical newsletter which will either be posted to net.works or if there is enough traffic to create a sub-group net.works.sun. Any and all comments will be appreciated. Chuck Athey ARPA: athey@lll-crg UUCP: dual!lll-crg!athey USNAIL: Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory P.O.B. 808 L-87 Livermore, CA 94550 (415) 422-7211

From: Mike Caplinger <mike@rice.ARPA> Though I know you already know, there is an entire ARPAnet discussion list about Sun Workstations. It might be more appropriate to use it as a base for the technical newsletter. Somebody would have to look into gatewaying it to the USENET, but that shouldn't be too hard. Of course, ARPA regulations would require that it not contain commercial announcements, and SMI would probably be reluctant to dictate policy for it -- which seems like a feature to me. - Mike ps. For those who DON'T know: the list is SUN-SPOTS@RICE.ARPA. Requests to be added should be sent to SUN-SPOTS-REQUEST@RICE. The list is digested and currently goes out about once a month.
