Comp.sys.apple itself is a gatewayed mailing list, and a new list has been setup that appears to be a LISTSERV list (BITNET?). Can someone tell me how one would go about gatewaying that as well? (Presumably it would have to be voted on?) The group is unlikely to ever be terribly high volume, but the separation from general discussion would certainly be useful. -nazgul -- ### {mit-erl,yale,uw-beaver}!apollo!nazgul ### apollo!nazgul@eddie.mit.edu ### ### pro-angmar!nazgul@pro-sol.cts.com ### nazgul@apollo.com ### I'm not sure which upsets me more; that people are so unwilling to accept responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate everyone else's.
