    The people working on network and gateway monitoring for NSFNET
have decided that we'd like to develop a gateway monitoring protocol
using UDP as the transport protocol.

    To this end I've been tapped to write an RFC specifying how monitoring
will be done with UDP.

    The purpose of this note is to announce the creation of a short-lived
(I hope) mailing list, gwmon@sh.cs.net, for people who are interested
in *actively* assisting me in writing the RFC.   People who "just want
to listen in" are discouraged -- I'm really trying to create a small
discussion group of people who are seriously interested.

    Mail request to join the list to gwmon-request@sh.cs.net

Cheers,
