I am pleased to announce the creation of a new set of moderated newsgroups
dealing with Apple's Macintosh. The new groups are:
mod.mac (formally mod.computers.macintosh)
mod.mac.sources
mod.mac.binaries
My name is Roger Long, and I've volunteered to moderate the last two groups.
As you might imagine, mod.mac.sources will distribute sources for Macintosh
software, and mod.mac.binaries will distribute binaries. Once these groups
have been in use for awhile, it is expected that net.sources.mac will be
removed.
The level of moderation will be minimal, and my job will be mostly to decide
which group to post a submission to. Given the distinction between the two
groups, this should not be difficult.
You should make sure that your moderators file is updated to reflect these
new groups. The uucp address for both groups is felix!macintosh. Felix has
connections to hplabs, oliveb, and trwrb, to name a few. Queries may be
directed to felix!macintosh-request.
At this point I'd like to mention that your support would be GREATLY
appreciated. To facilitate distribution of the newsgroup, it would be nice
if one or two east coast sites could arrange to poll felix to pick up
postings to mod.mac. It would also be nice if a few sites around the world
could arrange to archive these groups so that I don't need to be the only
one responding to requests for missed articles. If you'd be interested in
doing either of these things, please contact me.
Finally, your support in just USING these newsgroups will be appreciated.
If there's anything I can do to make these newsgroups more useful, let me
know.
[I encourage those of you currently using net.sources.mac to send your
sources and binaries to Roger instead - you'll reach a wider audience. - MRH.]
