There are no more docs, and there won't be. There are LSTSRV-M archives. Use LSTSRV-L. Then in a different note Eric sends someone off to particular LISTSERV to get what I guess is a home-grown MEMO to fill in the gaps, which slightly contradicts 3). I'm going to assume that if I see a need to ask for a LISTMAST MEMO, others might also want to see one. I'm also going to assume Eric would rather do MVS system maintenance or own a module in the shared file system than write more documentation. Therefore, I will on my own time and with no particular schedule in mind start to write a LISTMAST MEMO. I would ask three favors of all of you: A) If you have questions you want LISTMAST MEMO to answer, ask. B) If there is something you think I might not know but ought to include in LISTMAST MEMO, let me know. C) If you're willing to review LISTMAST MEMO before I release it to the world, please let me know. D) If I'm repeating work you've already started, let me know. :-) Beyond that, no promises. I doubt I'll get so far as reading source code, but I will try to answer all relevant questions for those of us who are supposed to know more than our list owners. :-) Nick
