This is a listing of special interest group mailing lists available on the Internet. It was started by Rich Zellich back when there was only an Arpanet, and is probably the oldest of the various "list of lists" available around the Internet. This compilation is copyrighted 1994, 1995 by Vivian Neou (vivian@catalog.com). You are welcome to copy it to look at it online, but it may not be reproduced in any other form without written permission from me. This file is available via anonymous FTP on sri.com in the NETINFO directory in the file INTEREST-GROUPS. It may also be obtained through e-mail by sending a message to mail-server@sri.com with "send interest-groups" in the body of the message. ********************************************************************** I am looking for a few sites to list as official distribution points. If you store a copy of this list in a public area and are willing to have your site listed here please let me know. ********************************************************************** Official distribution locations: cu.nih.gov:network/interest.groups sri.com:[anonymous.netinfo]interest-groups.txt ** going away ** If you are putting up a copy of this list in a public place, please let me know so that I can let you know when new versions come out. If you see an old version of this list in a public repository on the net, please let me (or the owner of the repository) know. I don't produce a list of incremental changes to this list - you have to get the whole list. If you want to receive notices of new lists as they are created, check out the "NEW-LIST" list. I don't have time to respond to requests for searches for lists on specific topics - you'll have to pull the list and search it yourself (which you've probably already done if you're reading this). Since this is supposed to be a list of Internet lists, I'm trying to translate all of the BITNET addresses into direct Internet addresses. If you see one that I've missed, and know the correct address please let me know. If you are looking for a summary of BITNET lists, send a message to LISTSERV@BITNIC.EDUCOM.EDU with "list global" in the message body. If you find errors in the entries in this list, please let me know (especially if you find a listing for a defunct list). To submit updates for the description of an existing mailing-lists or to add a new listing, send a message to vivian@sri.com. Listings should include the following information: List Address: Subscription Address: List Management: (Majordomo, Listserv, Manual, etc) Owner: Description: Archive location and availability: How to join: List Traffic: (eg: around 3 messages/day) List owners: If you are sending in information about a list that has been around for awhile, please include information about the amount of traffic that the list gets. If you are starting a list, please send this information in (if you think of it) after the list has been around for a couple months. *** IMPORTANT *** IMPORTANT *** IMPORTANT *** IMPORTANT *** IMPORTANT *** * * For administrative requests about a list (like getting added or deleted, * asking about archive files, etc.) you write to the address listed under * "Subscription Address" *NOT* the "List Address". This gets you to the * list owner or an automated list processor, rather than to the membership * of the entire mailing list. If you goof and send an administrative * message to the entire mailing list you will probably get blasted by * irate list members. Save everyone grief by using the subscription * address for adminitrative requests! * *** IMPORTANT *** IMPORTANT *** IMPORTANT *** IMPORTANT *** IMPORTANT *** If the subscription address is a LISTSERV, send a message with "subscribe listname" in the BODY of the message to the subscription address. Some List Addresses do not look like a regular Internet e-mail address. In general, these are LISTSERV lists. To send a message to the list, look at the Subscription Address, and use that hostname along with the list name to send a message to the list. For example, to send a message to a list with a List Address called MYLIST with a Subscription Address of LISTSERV@MYDOMAIN.COM, send your message to MYLIST@MYDOMAIN.COM. Unix-based listservers usually require you to include your name in the subscription request, so the command in your request should be of the form "subscribe listname firstname lastname". Most automated list servers will send back an explanation of the correct command structure if you happen to get it wrong in your request. If the subscription address is MAILBASE, send a message with "join listname FirstName LastName" in the body of the message to the subscription address. How lists get on this list -------------------------- There are a number of ways that lists get added to this list: I watch the announcements on NEW-LIST, list owners (or interested members) send me information, and I spend time (when I have it) looking around the net for interesting lists. I do this so that the book that is based on this list and eWorld will have up-to-date information, and I make this list freely available on the Internet because I'm a nice person :). Just in case you are wondering why you should buy the book if you can get the online list at no cost I'll tell you: the book is fully indexed, and descriptions are listed by subject rather than by listname; it comes with a complete description of list management software (vs the two paragraphs I've included in this file); it comes with software that will automatically subscribe and unsubscribe you from lists; and most importantly :) royalties from the book pay for the time that I spend updating this file. The book is "Internet Mailing Lists Navigator" by Vivian Neou, and its ISBN number is 0-13-193988-2. It is available in many bookstores, and may be ordered directly from Prentice Hall by calling 1-800-643-5506. ======================================================================== 386USERS Subscription Address: Owner: James Galvin, galvin@tis.com and Bill Davidsen, davidsen@crdos1.crd.ge.com Last Update: 1/14/94 Description: This was a moderated list for Intel 80386 topics, including hardware and software questions, reviews, rumors, and so on.

Bear in mind that very few people have taste as good as you do. Most of the lists will be from people whose taste is inferior to yours. Their lists are potentially very, very long.

CHILDRENS-VOICE@SCHOOLNET.CARLETON.CA Subscription Address: LISTPROC@SCHOOLNET.CARLETON.CA Owner: Michael McCarthy Last Update: 3/28/95 Description: The singular purpose of the childrens-voice list is the publishing of children's writing from Junior Kindergarten to Grade Eight. Any classroom teacher may publish a child's writing on the list at their discretion to be shared with other subscribers. When a writer places their own personal experience within the elements of their story, we hear the voice of the author. Helping a child to bring their personal experience to their writing is a prime objective of the writing process. It is always easy to publish a child's writing when the voice is strong. It is the caring and sensitive teacher who publishes a child's work, when for the first time, the child incorporates an aspect of their own experience into their work. What should be published must, therefore, depend on the objectives of the classroom teacher. In this way, the classroom teacher is always the best judge of what should be published. In the writing process, publishing is more than the act of placing words between two covers. It is the affirmation of a child through listening to what the child has to say in their writing. The classroom teacher is, therefore, encouraged to bring back the writing of other children published in the journal to be read by the children in their classrooms. The broader community with its multiplicity of cultures and values frames the personal experience of a child. Languages other than English and French are encouraged.

Chinese files sent to the list should be uuencoded. The uuencode command is included on most Unix-based systems; type "man uuencode" for instructions on its use, or ask your system administrator. PC versions of uuencode and uudecode are available via anonymous ftp from ahkcus.org [192.55.187.25] as uuduue20.zip in the src/pc directory. (Ask your system administrator for help using FTP.) For information about uuencode and the Mac, see the Mac help file mentioned below. To read a file written in Chinese, you will need a program that can interpret the Chinese code used in that file. Different programs are available for different hardware platforms. PC users can get information about GuoBiao editors by sending email to LISTSERV@UGA.BITNET with the message GET PC HELP. HKU Big5 files can be viewed with shownews.exe or readnews.exe, available via anonymous ftp at ahkcus.org [192.55.187.25] in the src/pc/hku directory. (You will also need the chinese.16 font file from the same directory.) ET Big5 files must be read with the ETen operating system, which is commercial software selling for about US$80. However there is a utility, et2hku, to convert ET Big5 files to HKU Big5 files, which can then be read with shownews. Mac users can get information about both GuoBiao and Big5 software by sending email to LISTSERV@UGA.BITNET with the message GET MAC HELP. X Windows users can use either cxterm or xhzview for both GuoBiao or Big5 files. For information about cxterm, send email to LISTSERV@UGA.BITNET with the message GET CXTERM HELP. For infor- mation about xhzview, send email to LISTSERV@UGA.BITNET with the message GET XHZVIEW HELP. To convert between GuoBiao and Big5 (et or hku) files, use hc ("Hanzi Converter"), available via anonymous ftp from ahkcus.org [192.55.187.25] in the src/unix directory. (There is another conversion utility available called b2g, but it seems to miss a large number of characters.) Since Big5 covers about 5,000 more characters than GuoBiao, it's likely there will be a few missing characters in Big5 to GuoBiao conversions. To convert between ET Big5 and HKU Big5, use et2hku, available via anonymous ftp from cs.purdue.edu [128.10.2.1] in the pub/ygz/utils directory.

Topics to be discussed are how to carry out such an effort, experiences in the implementation, recommended policies, hardware issue s, etc. It is aimed primarily (but not limited to) developers of university campus-wide e-mail systems. In an effort to assure a productive environment, subscription will be filtered by the list Coordinators, who may require additional information before a subscription request is accepted (curious bystanders clogging up the network are not desired). The list itself is unmoderated. Monthly notebooks are kept. CWD-L Subscription Address: MAJORDOMO@CYBERWERKS.COM Owner: Eric S.

But these occurrences should be even less frequent now with the addition of another network gateway. So if your submission to the list bounces, try again later and the list should be back up. From time to time there will be informational postings from Pete or other developers about their products related to the GS/DSP, these messages will be archived and if you want send a message to the list coordinator and he will forward to you the requested file. There will be a listing of the available files. Two files which might be of interest include the GS/DSP Preliminary Press Info that was posted to comp.sys.apple2, this one and a long question and answer post by Pete Snowberg about the DSP board.
