If a man speaks of his honor, make him pay cash. - R.A.H Another LISTSERV, another LISTSERV group... Thanks to Robert H Greenfield for his information about LISTSERV@UREGINA1 and the new MUMPS-L mailing list. This list is not moderated. A user who is on it may send mail messages to MUMPS-L@UREGINA1, and the server sends a copy of the message to all of the people on the list. Later an MDC-type list may be established. For the present, all MUMPS related topics are welcome. Current mailing list members are in BITNET, ARPANET, EDUNET and UUCP. You may be added to the mailing list by mailing a request to Robert Greenfield at userid RHG@UREGINA1. Bitlist 2-1... I keep copies of all the old Bitlists on file, but my copy of issue 2-1 has the text of issue 2-2 in it. (don't ask me how that happened). If anyone has a "proper" copy of 2-1 on file, I would appreciate your sending it to me. A Bitlist reader survey.... At the bottom of this issue is a brief questionnaire for you to fill out. I am trying to find out a few things such as where people are getting the magazine, what kind of audience I have, and what you would like to see in future issues. If you fill out the survey please return only that portion of the file, NOT this whole issue of Bitlist. Your responses are not anonymous, but they will be kept confidential (not that I am asking anything terribly personal). Thank you.

It comes up once a day at 6am local time to process requests. Any requested files will be sent to you at that time. To request a program or set of programs, send CCUC a file named PCLIB REQ containing the filespec of each file you want, one per line. No wildcards are allowed. Both IBM-CMS and IBM-PC type filespecs are allowed (i.e both 'COM_PKG1.ASM' and 'COM_PKG1 ASM' are valid). Each line is assumed to contain a filespec, so please don't send mail or note type files! An up to date, commented list of the Info-IBMPC library files is contained in the file PROGRAM-LIS. A CMS style file list which includes other available files and time/date stamps, is in CCUC FILELIST. Questions, complaints and suggestions regarding CCUC can be sent TO CCUC (use a filename other than PCLIB REQ), which will forward them to the CCUC operator. +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ ³ Database servers: ³ +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ DATABASE @ BITNIC - Bitnet Information Center +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ ³ Name servers: ³ +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ BITSERVE @ CUNYVM - City University of New York CSNEWS @ MAINE - University of Maine FINGER @ CUVMA - Columbia University LOOKUP @ RITVAXA - Rochester Institute of Technology LOOKUP @ RITVAXB - Rochester Institute of Technology LOOKUP @ RITVAXC - Rochester Institute of Technology LOOKUP @ RITVAXD - Rochester Institute of Technology NDCSNEWS @ NDSUVM1 - North Dakota State University VMNAMES @ WEIZMANN - Weizmann Institute of Science +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ ³ List servers: ³ +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ LISTSERV @ CEARN - Centre Europeen de Recherche Nucleaire LISTSERV @ BITNIC - Bitnet Support Center LISTSERV @ MARIST - Marist College LISTSERV @ NCSUVM - North Carolina State University LISTSERV @ NDSUVM1 - North Dakota State University LISTSERV @ TCSVM - Tulane University LISTSERV @ UCF1VM - University of Central Florida LISTSERV @ UREGINA1 - University of Regina The current LISTSERV groups are listed in the file LISTSERV GROUPS which is available from the file server NICSERVE@BITNIC.
