Intro
|
|
-----
|
|
This is a list of mailing lists available primarily on the UUCP
|
|
network. A mailing list is different from a newsgroup because you do
|
|
not receive anything unless you specifically request it. To be added to
|
|
a mailing list, please mail a note to the contact for that list, listed
|
|
below.
|
|
|
|
Some of the lists mentioned may be available as limited-distribution
|
|
newsgroups. Contact the administrator for exact details.
|
|
|
|
Please note the following caveats: publication of a list here does not
|
|
guarantee that you will be allowed to join as a member. That is up to
|
|
the moderator and readers, and they have the right to restrict access
|
|
to their list as they see fit. Mailing lists use MUCH less system
|
|
overhead on a world-wide basis but do tend to increase loading on the
|
|
moderators' machines so the number of people that can be added to a list
|
|
may be limited by machine resources as well.
|
|
|
|
The Network Information Systems Center maintains a list of mailing
|
|
lists that exist primarily on the Internet. That list overlaps this
|
|
one in a few places, but the lists are largely distinct. A copy of
|
|
that list may be obtained by anonymous ftp from the site
|
|
ftp.nisc.sri.com (192.33.33.53) in the file "netinfo/interest-groups".
|
|
To add or delete an entry to that list, mail to
|
|
interest-group-request@nisc.sri.com. If you cannot ftp a copy of the
|
|
list, and you are a CSnet subscriber, you can get a copy from the
|
|
CSnet info-server; mail to cic@sh.cs.net for instructions.
|
|
|
|
If you have a list that you want added to this posting or are interested in
|
|
starting a list but don't know how, drop me a note at spaf@purdue.edu

|
|
Studies at the Los Alamos National Laboratory and the Santa Fe

|
Institute. The list is intended primarily for low-volume, high-content

scientific correspondence and as a publically accessible forum for the

Chem-talk
|
|
Contact: Dr. Manus Monroe, Chemistry Department, Marin Community College
|
|
...!{ames,cbosgd}!pacbell!unicom!manus
|
|
|
|
Purpose: As chemists, dialogue and conversation with other
|
|
scientists are essential to stimulating or provoking new ideas. As
|
|
teachers and researchers, we can find the demands of our profession
|
|
extensive, which may lead to a reduction in our ability to keep
|
|
abreast of new data and changes in theories. Sometimes,
|
|
conversation helps to clarify articles, illuminate new perceptions
|
|
of theories, and sustain us through our precarious journey in
|
|
chemistry. A solution to this problem or concern is the creation

NewsCommando shows extreme prejudice toward those articles whose
|
|
contents exhibit "legs." The depth of insight possible using the
|
|
information mosaic method can be staggering. A form of electronic
|
|
magazine, NewsCommando can serve as a reference tool, offer unique
|
|
jump-off points for Medline, PaperChase, or other searches, and,
|
|
in many ways, is the "poor-man's IdeaFisher/IdeaBank." Vol. 1
|
|
will contain the following articles:
|
|
ChemTao: Synergies In the Life Sciences
|
|
EarthWatch1: Defining the Scope of Environmental Destruction
|
|
Why Euthanasia Must Never Be Legalized
|
|
Use "NewsCom request" in the "Subject:" field of message headers.
|
|
Indicate article title(s) desired or "all" in body of message.
|
|
Articles will be deposited in your mailbox with a "NewsCom/Vol.#"
|
|
Subject header. Most will be in excess of 20K. Please group-save
|
|
them to a file for later reading.

Testing-Archive
|
|
Contact: testing-archive-request@ernie.cs.uiuc.edu (Brian Marick)
|
|
|
|
Purpose: The purpose of Testing-Archive is to collect and archive
|
|
material for software testing practitioners and researchers who
|
|
are too busy to read ongoing discussions. Therefore, typical
|
|
messages will be abstracts of technical reports, announcements of
|
|
testing tools (both commercial and noncommercial), reviews of
|
|
testing tools, and summaries of discussions from other mailing
|
|
lists or newsgroups. The mailing list will be archived and made
|
|
available for anonymous FTP via
|
|
cs.uiuc.edu:/pub/testing/archiveXX. The list is unmoderated.
|
|
|
|
Testing-Research
|
|
Contact: testing-research-request@ernie.cs.uiuc.edu (Brian Marick)
|
|

|
Purpose: Testing-Research is a forum for testing researchers to
|
|
discuss current and future research at greater length (and with
|
|
perhaps lower "density") than in Testing-Archive. The goal of
|
|
Testing-Archive is to create a historical record; the goal of
|
|
Testing-Research is to create a community. Since testing is one
|
|
of the most down-to-earth kinds of software engineering research,
|
|
testing practitioners are welcomed. Messages about practice
|
|
should be the kind that can guide or improve research; messages
|
|
that can improve practice should go in comp.software-eng. This
|
|
list is unmoderated.
