A small quibble:  a publication need not have paid subscribers to be
considered a "true electronic publication." The library of congress has
issued several ISSNs (International Standard Serials Numbers) to 
electronic publications that do not have paid subscribers.  Some of
these exist on BITNET and other networks and address a variety of 
subjects in many disciplines.
