No part of it may be reproduced in any form, except through normal Usenet distribution channels, without explicit permission from the author. This is a list of mailing lists available primarily through the Internet and 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. My role in this publication is solely in its maintenance and upkeep. I cannot help you subscribe to a mailing list, find lists not listed in this FAQ, nor can I help you find addresses for ones that are outdated. If you wish to bring an invalid contact address to my attention, it would help immensely if you sent me the full bounce header. Be aware that not all lists are administered the same way, specifically, not all lists are listservers. The default is to assume that the list is maintained by a person. Don't send listserver-type commands unless the contact address starts with "majordomo," "listproc,' or "listserv" or the instructions explicitly say to send listserver-type commands. When in doubt, send a message to the request address, which will be in the form <listname>-request@site.domain. 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 mailing lists are current to my knowledge. However, I can't guarantee the accuracy of the listings. Keeping the entries up to date is the responsibility of the individual list owners. On the same vein, please send corrections only on information taken from the latest version of the PAML. This document is posted on the 19th of each month and supersedes any previous versions. If the version you have is more than one month old, then it is obsolete. The latest version may be obtained from the ftp site. This list is archived and available by anonymous ftp at rtfm.mit.edu under the directory /pub/usenet/news.answers/mail/mailing-lists. If you have a list that you want added to this posting, send a request to arielle@taronga.com. Please include the list name, contact (request) address and a brief description of your list in the format of the mailing lists already included.
