This is the latest in a series of similar comp.std.unix articles,
intended to give summary information about UNIX-related publications;
to be accurate, but not exhaustive. It's cross-posted to
comp.org.usenix and comp.unix.questions because there might be
interest there.
There are four related articles, posted at the same time as this one,
with subjects
Calendar of UNIX-related Events
Access to UNIX User Groups
Access to UNIX-Related Networking
Access to UNIX-Related Standards
The latter is posted only to comp.std.unix.
These access postings are collected and posted by Susanne W. Smith
of Windsound Consulting <sws@calvin.wa.com> and were originated by
John S. Quarterman of Texas Internet Consulting <jsq@tic.com>.
The information in them comes from a wide variety of sources.
We encourage others to reuse this information, but we ask for proper
acknowledgment, for example by including this statement.
Corrections and additions to this article are solicited. We keep track
of the conferences, groups, and publications that we attend, are members
of, or subscribe to. All others (the majority of the listings) we derive
either from listings elsewhere, or from contributions by readers.
In particular, the meeting schedules and descriptions of most of the
groups are provided by their members. If a group doesn't have a
meeting schedule listed, it's because nobody has sent one. This is
a low-budget operation: we publish what is on hand when the time
comes (approximately bi-monthly).
