Hi all. I'm passing on requests from two different people to form lists on LISTSERV machines somewhere. I am looking for anyone who will volunteer to either or both of these lists. The first is from Tom Benson (T3B at PSUVM) who is currently moderating a mailing list known as CRTNET (Communications Research and Theory NETwork). It is basically a discussion of new developments in Communications research and basically accepts submissions from anyone who wishes to submit something. It is also a forum to announce conferences and such. I can send you the latest copy (I have it on disk) or you can request back issues from the server machine LFCNET at ICNUCEVM. I do not know whether Tom would convert this to unmoderated form or not once he has a list (I would suspect not). The second request is for a list that does not exist yet but is on a subject that has created much discussion on the unix networks. It is for a mailing list to discuss MINIX (A version 7 unix clone for the ibm/pc written by Andy Tanenbaum ([log in to unmask] or [log in to unmask])). Currently there is a great deal of discussion on the USENET newsgroup comp.os.minix - however most bitnet sites do not receive this newsgroup and therefore are deprived of the information in it. Therefore, he wants to create a list for bitnet people to discuss the minix system (is there anyway to gate unix groups to listserv lists?) Therefore I am requesting the creation of two new lists (CRTNET-L and MINIX-L would be good names...) If you wish you could make me the owner for now and I could help them set up the lists... thanx a lot Scott Campbell (maintainer of ADVISE-L)
