- Being the control fiend that I am, I just created a new channel on the
- Linux-activists mailing list called "ANNOUNCE". Lars and I will mail
- the announcements that we approve for comp.os.linux.announce to this channel,
- for those of you who don't get c.o.l.a or who'd rather your announcements in
- e-mail digest format. Basically, there won't be any discussion on this channel.
- It will only be a mirror of the bandwidth on comp.os.linux.announce.
-
- Now, VERY SOON Lars and I will no longer be crossposting announcements to
- comp.os.linux-- we'll ONLY post them to comp.os.linux.announce. There IS a
- "LNXMANAGE" Fidonet echo for c.o.l.a, and if you don't get c.o.l.a on your
- system, please encourage your news administrators to create it. If they won't
- budge, then just join the ANNOUNCE channel of Linux-activists and you're set.
-
- To join this channel, send mail to
- linux-activists-request@niksula.hut.fi
- With the line
- X-Mn-Admin: join ANNOUNCE
-
- at the top (not in the subject). Right, Arl? :)
-
- Feel free to send me any questions/comments.
-
- Thanks,
- mdw
