If you are writing or porting a program to Minix, we would like to encourage you to have the Referees look your program over before you post it so that we can find common bugs and other glitches before you present it to the rest of the world (it should help avoid "foot-in-mouth" disease). To submit your program, bug fix, or whatever to us, mail it to: minix-ref@plains.nodak.edu @plains.uucp @plains.bitnet {uunet, ogicse, umn-cs}!plains!minix-ref and it will be automagically redistributed to all the referees. There is no differentiation between Atari-ST and PC groups. Hopefully, all user-level programs will run on all machines. If you are an enthusiastic Minix "hacker" and would like to become a Referee, please send a request to Glen Overby at minix@plains and you will be added to the group. -- Glen Overby uunet!plains!overby (UUCP) overby@plains (Bitnet)
