- That might be the NetPub list, maintained by Robert Hoffmann on Infoplus --
- I can't remember now whether his logname there is "robert" or "hoffmann" but
- the site is @infopls.chi.il.us (no u in 'infopls'). He and Andrew Rossmann
- (andyross@infopls.chi.il.us, owner of the site) started the list because
- Infoplus runs Waffle on a PC and didn't qualify for Nixpub by dint of running
- a non-Unix OS.
