Years ago, I managed a list called Help-Net which was a volunteer effort
to help people who were new to the Internet get information about it.
Eventually, I had to divest myself of that list due to a lack of time to
run it. The list was moved to another university, but I forget where; this
was about four or five years ago. Does anyone here know if Help-Net is
around in some form? I tried looking for it on catalist a while ago, but I
came up empty-handed.
