I was getting a little nervous; just when I started getting into m-l programming on the 48, it looked like all my contacts to those in the know were about to be cut off. Is the handhelds gateway going to stay? I'm still a bit confused on how the moderated group is going to be handled. -Randy Weems rjw0180@tntech

Will the people on comp.sys.handhelds be notified enough in advance so that
we will not miss any postings between the time we cancel our subscriptions to
the general conference and get on the mailing list for the 48 specific
conference?

My current plan is to create two mailing lists as soon as possible. If necessary I will rename them to reflect the names of the newsgroups. -- Dan Boehlke Internet: dan@gac.edu Campus Network Manager BITNET: dan@gacvax1.bitnet Gustavus Adolphus College St. Peter, MN 56082 USA Phone: (507)933-7596

I'd recommend staying subscribed to both for a while if you don't want to miss anything. I'm sure even after everything's set up, some postings will still go to comp.sys.handhelds as people learn about the new groups. John Diamant Software Engineering Systems Division Hewlett Packard Co.
