HARPER%FINUH@PUCC.PRINCETON.EDU ("ROBERT HARPER, FINLAND") (07/08/90)
When I visited the States about a month ago there was considerable interest in what is happening on the "eastern front". On our PORTA- COM conferencing system more feedback is trickling in. I know this in not biology but I think that it is an important development in international networking so it deserves a mention. =================== FEEDBACK ================================== > ( 80781 ) 90-07-05 08:29 Robert Harper >Receiver: Kysy: Tietoliikenteest{ /received/ >Subject: Earn and the Eastern block. ------------------------------------ Here is an interesting note about developments on the Eastern front. ===================== EXTRACT ============================= You can subscribe to plearn-l by mailing the following message to listserv@ubvm.cc.buffalo.edu sub plearn-l Robert Harper Poland should be getting its first bitnet-style link to EARN (via denmark) in August or September. EARN voted approval on or about April 10 following a change in US Commerce Dept. policy. The first link will be from Denmark to Warsaw.

The link is via uucp, and the mailer is called ella.uucp. So if you have a research colleague in Hungary, you can ask him to try to get a mail account (the connec- tion works excellently between Finland and Hungary). -TS- ******* ( 80994 ) 90-07-06 10:55 Sari A.

The link to Hungary goes from France and Austria. PS. Institute of Cybernetics at Estonian Academy of Sciences is al- so going to join the net real-soon-now, address is ioc.uucp.
