Just to clarify a couple of points.  First off, Ian Smith is the primary
person running the SIG.  His email address is iansmith@warhol.gatech.edu
(*not* ian@warhol.gatech.edu).  Questions about the SIG should be addressed
to hardcore-request@warhol.gatech.edu; hardcore@warhol.gatech.edu is the
actual mailing list itself (i.e., this sends to the people on the mailing
list).

So what is NeXT Hardcore?  We're trying to aim for somewhat technical interests
related to Unix and Mach-specifics.  We hope to have a (semi-regular or better)
column in Buzzings about doing NeXT development involving some level of
Unix or Mach systems programming.  Examples include network programming using
sockets or ports, Mach RPCs, distributed computing, etc.  (we tend to be of
sort of a network-bent here, but we're not limiting ourselves to that).

Donations of material gratefully accepted.

Cheers,
Keith
