Another year is finished ... and the decade of the eighties is ending.
During the summer of 1991, TELECOM Digest will complete ten years on
the net, and I thought you might be interested in seeing the
introduction to TELECOM Digest which went out with the very first
issue back in 1981.

Welcome to TELECOM. This digest is a spinoff from the HUMAN-NETS
discussion on the telephone network and switching equipment.  Parts of
this digest are in fact submissions to HUMAN-NETS which were never
published, and are presented here to spark the discussion.

The archive for this is in the usual place, DUFFEY;_DATA_ TELCOM at
MIT-AI, and we will shortly be adding to the archive the discussions
that have taken place in HUMAN-NETS relating to telecommunications.

I will be moderating this list from Rutgers, as I do with POLI-SCI,
but you can still send mail to TELECOM@MIT-AI, or TELECOM@RUTGERS.
If you want to communicate with the maintainers then you should
send mail to TELECOM-REQUEST@MIT-AI, or TELECOM-REQUEST@RUTGERS.

Enjoy,
JSol

Jon Solomon was of course the Moderator here for several years, until
the summer of 1988. He published the Digest using the facilities at
his places of employment including Rutgers and Boston University.
Although I am not employed by Northwestern University, the staff of
the Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences Department there has
always been very gracious to me and generous with their facilities. A
word of thanks is due at the end of another year to Bill LeFebvre for
accomodating my accounts -- and heavy volume of traffic! -- at his
site. Thanks also go to Mary Riendeau at Boston University for
continuing to provide a backup site for comp.dcom.telecom as needed
and Mike Patton at MIT for providing space for the Telecom Archives.

Have a happy new year!
