*****************************************
*BIOCONVERSION now on the BIOSCI network*
*****************************************
It is now possible to join "BIOCONVERSION", an international
bioconversion teleconference/bulletin board/newsgroup which is
organized by a team of moderators. "BIOCONVERSION" is intended to
facilitate information exchange on:
* issues, needs, problems and experiences in research, development
and processes for the microbial conversion of bioresources.
* planning of electronic activities on bioconversion.
* energy/fuel, food, fodder, and fertilizers.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
People that have access to BITNET and who would want to use
LISTSERV services, can subscribe to the bulletin board at
LISTSERV@IRLEARN.
On VAX/VMS systems, for example, you can send the following
message:
$ send LISTSERV@IRLEARN subscribe BIO$CONV your-full-name
On IBM/CMS system the corresponding command would be:
TELL LISTSERV AT IRLEARN subscribe BIO$CONV your-full-name
When sending Mail to "BIOCONVERSION" via IRLEARN to the BIOSCI
network you should use the following addresses:
Internet: bio-conv@irlearn.ucd.IE
BITNET: BIO-CONV@IRLEARN.BITNET (or only BIO-CONV@IRLEARN)
Other addresses which also receive messages for "BIOCONVERSION"
and redistribute them on the BIOSCI network are the following
(remember that only one message to any of these addresses is
sufficient for for the worldwide distribution):
JANET (U.K.): BIOCONVERSION@UK.AC.DARESBURY
BITNET (Sweden): C1222@QZCOM.BITNET
Internet (U.S.A.): bio-conversion@net.bio.NET
Internet (Sweden): bio-conversion@bmc.uu.SE
On networks that receive the "bionet" newsgroups on USENET News
(Unix), RNEWS (VMS) or related News systems you have simply to
select the newsgroup bionet.technology.conversion
============================
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
In addition, we are working to make "BIOCONVERSION" available in a
number of other computer conferencing systems, for example the CoSy
conferencing system of the University of Guelph, Guelph, Ontario,
Canada, the PeaceNet II Notesfile system used by the EcoNet/
GreenNet conferencing network, the English COM of QZ Universitets-
Data AB (Stockholm), and the PortaCOMs of the Finnish universities.
Hopefully this will be a broad enough base to stimulate interaction
between the participants.
