Archive-name: internet/talk/irc-ii/1991-06-17 Archive: freebie.engin.umich.edu:/pub/irc/clients/UNIX/ircII* [141.212.68.23] Original-posting-by: stealth@engin.umich.edu (Mike Pelletier) Original-subject: Change of Management for IRCII Reposted-by: emv@msen.com (Edward Vielmetti, MSEN) Mike Sandrof recently sent the following message to the IRCII mailing list: ------------- |Well, my plane leaves at 1:15 PM EST on Wednesday, June 19th for San |Jose, California. So, 2.1 is now available on rvw2.hhs.ri.cmu.edu. I |probably will have little time to even fix bugs at this point, so |maybe some other good soul will take the helm, sip his/her whiskey, |and steer us clear of icebergs. Rvw2.hhs.ri.cmu.edu is also living on |borrowed time, so I hope someone will copy the 2.1 source to some |other distribution point and advertise its location. ------------- I have stepped forward to take the reigns of IRCII version management, due to Mike's absence from the Internet community. The source for the definitive version of IRCII is now: freebie.engin.umich.edu:/pub/irc/clients/UNIX which is also reachable through AFS, via: /afs/engin.umich.edu/group/engin/caen/ftp/irc/clients/UNIX. Send all bug reports, suggested patches, etc, to stealth@engin.umich.edu. I will be upholding Mike Sandrof's copyright provisions, namely that modifications may be made for local use only. His absence for application of bug fixes and modifications does not mean that IRCII will fall into the pit of version chaos -- that's why I'm here, to keep the code viable and up to date. If it becomes necessary, I will also be taking up the IRCII mailing list. I don't think it will be, however.
