- I thought you'd NEVER ask! :-)
-
- Anyone can get the GR Interleaf Newsletter. It is published on a
- non-regular schedule (read that as "when I get enough time to type all
- the stuff I've collected in" - August was the latest issue. One is due
- soon - overdue, some would say...)
-
- To subscribe to the newsletter, you need to decide if you want it in
- electronic form (send in parts by e-mail). You need shar and the
- associated tools (uudecode and uncompress, I think). You also need
- Interleaf 5. Then, you need to send me a working e-mail address (I try
- it out before sending you a newsletter). And don't forget to tell me
- you want the newsletter.
-
- Or, you can e-mail me or USmail me your USmail address.
-
- Back issues are only available by mail.
-
- There is no change for the subscription or back issues.
-
- You have to "resubscribe" once a year, usually with the December
- issue, which will probably be the next issue (but no guarantees). No
- big deal, I just want to make sure you like it and think it's useful.
- If not, don't resubscribe. If you do,then when you resubscribe, you
- can tell me what a wonderful job I am doing and I get to take the
- letters to the boss at review time...:-)
