Hi, this is Neil (the other security list moderator).  The zardoz security
list is alive and well, has over 350 members, and welcomes new qualified
members.  The list is hosted on cpd.com (zardoz.uucp), which will be directly
connected into the internet within a month (that's the schedule, anyway).
Digests have been sent out fairly regularly.  This list's membership is
based on the premise that system administrators or persons recomended
by their system's administrators can join.  So please, if you want in,
or have tried to get in in the past, try again.  There have been a number
of mail problems in Orange County in the past few months, and your mail
might have simply been lost.  I use uunet for almost all mail now, so
there shouldn't be any more lost mail.

Due to the excellent connections zardoz has, some quirks of mailers that I
take advantage of, and the resources available here, there is no need of
redistribution points.  If you are a redistribution point waiting for
digests, send me the names of the intended destinations and I will add
any that are immediately verifiable for membership to this list.

>I would suggest, that we do something about it, now!

Subscribe to the working list (mine :<).  There have been problems at various
points in the past with mail to/from Europe, so if you tried to get on
to the zardoz list, please try again.  Also, my mailer doesn't seem to do very
well with %'s in addresses.  The best bet is to send mail via uucp to
uunet!zardoz!security-request or to send it to security-request@cpd.com
if you are on the internet.  If you are from a uucp maps listed site,
please send me mail from one of the following:
1.	root
2.	the email contact name
3.	the map entry writer's email name
If you are sending mail from an internet site, please send it from an NIC
registered site from one of the following:
1.	root
2.	the NIC listed contact
Or, if you are not one of the above, send me mail anyway, and we can probably
work something out.
