[comp.org.usrgroup] UNIX Product Directory ?

nigel@cnw01.storesys.coles.oz.au (Nigel Harwood) (04/24/91)

I have been a member of Uniforum (prev. /usr/group) and have
always found the product directory very useful.

Where has it gone this year ?

I see it advertised in CommUNIXcations etc but I have yet to receive
mine.

If someone from Uniforum is reading this my membership details are:

   Member Number: 8928
       Exp. Date: March 31, 1992
            Name: Nigel Harwood
   Member Status: General Member

Or, am I just being impatient ?

Regards

Ditto.

The Membership renewal mentioned something about AIRMAIL being
expensive, so they'd ship by surface :-( Last year's cost around $30
US to airmail, so I can see why I have to pay extra to get it here.

I think you are... I think they're coming by paddle steamer and
camel.  You'd think they'd (air-)freight the directories into Oz, like
they do for the bi-weekly, which is posted at Mascot.

Having to wait so long - 3 months - makes it less valuable to me, as
I have to use old data.

There must be enough Members down-under to justify air-freight.

We received ours last week.  So you should probably have yours
already.  And this year it's two volumes!

The camel must have died on the way... it's still not here.
Maybe Australia Post is waiting for a stiff easterly breeze :-) ?
