Cooper) Newsgroups: mod.protocols.tcp-ip Subject: Getting info to non-arpanauts Message-ID: <8601152159.AA04727@BORAX.LCS.MIT.EDU> Date: Wed, 15-Jan-86 16:59:47 EST Article-I.D.: BORAX.8601152159.AA04727 Posted: Wed Jan 15 16:59:47 1986 Date-Received: Fri, 17-Jan-86 00:16:23 EST Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Organization: The ARPA Internet Lines: 15 Approved: tcp-ip@sri-nic.arpa Noel Chiappa expressed a concern about getting information to non-arpanet subscribers about current ideas from the mainstream tcp world. I think that his idea of using usenet is a great one. The TCP-IP list is carried on usenet as mod.protocols.tcp-ip. I don't know exactly how this forwarding is set up (since mod.... means that it is supposed to be a moderated list, and I didn't think that the arpanet one was moderated), but it would be a great boon to those of us who mostly (or entirely) rely on UUCP links if RFC's were automatically fed down the pipe. We might avoid sending very long ones (>60 pages or so) for evfficiency reasons. [Please respond to the list, since incoming mail is flakey for me theseedays] - Geof Cooper Imagen
