Sincere apologies for flooding info-micro with this, but I really must find out... For the last 6 or 7 months or so we've been trying to get our site added to the INFO-AMIGA mailing list (ARPANET). For the first few months we got absolute silence in response to my queries to the moderator. Then, a couple months ago or so, we (and apparently others) received a note stating that, yes, the "digestified" list WAS going to be coming out Real Soon Now after TWO test messages...of which our site (and others) received ONE...then silence til now. Hence this note. Would any ARPANET site that CURRENTLY (NOT previously) receives INFO-AMIGA ***FROM THE ARPANET SITE Info-Amiga@Rutgers*** please send me a small note so stating? Please? Also note that a number of ARPANET sites get their incoming from places OTHER than Rutgers. Wish we were them but at this point they don't count since we're interested only in the ARPA connection, not USENET or other non-ARPA networks. Thanks, Russ <Smith@nrl-aic.arpa> JAYCOR Navy Center for Applied Research in Artificial Intelligence (whew!)

The responsible person is still listed as Eric Lavitsky at Rutgers. He still exists and occasionaly posts to the net, so perhaps you should mail directly to him at lavitsky@RED.RUTGERS.EDU or ...!topaz!lavitsky. Also, with a little bit of persuasion, any site running netnews can automaticaly mail you the contents of the net.micro.amiga group, thus simulating the usual arpanet mailing list. -- George Robbins - now working for, uucp: {ihnp4|seismo|caip}!cbmvax!grr but no way officially representing arpa: cbmvax!grr@seismo.css.GOV Commodore, Engineering Department fone: 215-431-9255 (only by moonlite)
