What follows is part 1 (of 2) of the Arpanet List of Lists. This list
is maintained by Rich Zellich and corresponds to the List of Active
Newsgroups which I maintain on the Usenet. Many of the groups listed
herein are gatewayed into Usenet newsgroups.
Note that uucp-only sites are usually not able to receive these lists
except through gatewayed Usenet newsgroups.
Part 2 of the list is in a companion article.

SUMMARY OF MAILING-LISTS IN THIS FILE:
PLEASE NOTE: The general convention is that for administrivia about a list
(like getting added or deleted, asking about archive files, etc.) you write
to list-REQUEST@host (e.g., HEADER-PEOPLE-REQUEST@MC.LCS.MIT.EDU). This
gets you to the moderator, rather than to the membership of the entire
mailing list. Please look carefully at the entry for each list you are
interested in, to see if a -REQUEST address has been provided.

ADVISE-L%CANADA01.BITNET@WISCVM.WISC.EDU
Unmoderated mailing list intended for discussion among students who work
part-time at the various university computer centers. It is particularly
intended for people who work as student advisors or consultants, although
others are welcome. Another use of the list is to get help from others on
problems that might be encountered, or to let everyone know about new things
such as new file servers, so that everyone can put the network to the best
possible use.
Alternate paths/addresses: The list is served by 5 servers
(ADVISE-L@UTORONTO, ADVISE-L@CANADA01, ADVISE-L@NCSUVM, ADVISE-L@UGA, and
MD4F@CMUCCVMA) which are peer linked so that anything sent to one will be
sent to the other two automatically. ADVISE-L@NCSUVM is probably the
closest server to the WISCVM ARPANet gateway.
To subscribe to the list:
From a VM site on BITNET do:
TELL LISTSERV at CANADA01 SUBSCRIBE ADVISE-L Your_Full_Name
where Your_Full_Name is your real name (not your userid).
From a VMS BITNET site use the SEND/REMOTE command.
If you are at a site not on bitnet or where you cannot send interactive
messages you can send a message to
LISTSERV%CANADA01.BITNET@WISCVM.WISC.EDU where the first non-header line
consists of:
SUBSCRIBE ADVISE-L Your_Full_Name
Please refer any questions to the Coordinator.
Coordinator: Scott Campbell
SCOTT@UTORONTO.BITNET

is especially encouraged, although English translations may be advisable
when the material is of interest to beginners or non-Esperantists.
This list is identical to the USENET mailing list `mail.esperanto'. The
forwarding addresses were installed on LLL-CRG by Andy Beals; ESPERANTO
forwards to the "real" mail.esperanto address trwrb!trwspp!spp2!esperanto

EVOLUTION@KESTREL
This direct-distribution mailing list is organized to discuss consequences
of the theory of evolution, with emphasis on mathematics, on computer
simulations, and on literature. While creationists in this group are
expected to be few in number, and while they may not reasonably expect to be
taken seriously unless they can introduce radically better evidence than
creationists have in the past, we have no agreement to limit discussion of
contraversal topics. The coordinator assumes no responsibility for opinions
expressed in the group or for misuse.
Archives are available only upon request to EVOLUTION-REQUEST@KESTREL.
All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions,
etc., should be sent to EVOLUTION-REQUEST@KESTREL.

all subscribers. Copyrighted material, of course, cannot be resent by this
list. Public Domain code only! Furthermore, Bitnet prohibits commercial
distribution or advertising.

FSFNET
An electronic version of the typical science fiction/fantasy 'fanzine'.
Issues are sent to network users approximately every two to six weeks, and
generally range in size from 500 to 1000 lines. Typical issues primarily
contain amateur fiction by network authors from around the world (the
emphasis of the zine), although there are occasional movie and book reviews,
discussions of featured authors, game reviews, or any one of an infinite
number of fantasy and science fiction related topics. FSFnet tries to deal
with all aspects of science fiction and fantasy fiction fandom, while giving
young authors the opportunity to interact with a real readership and improve
their writing skills.
If you are interested in writing or contributing to FSFnet, feel free to
discuss it with the editor; submissions of all kinds are always welcome.
There is also the organized Dargon Project, where authors write about the
same area, borrowing characters and learning from one another, very similar
to Robert Lynn Asprin's Thieve's World project. This makes for much more
interesting issues as well as improving the style of the writer, exposing
him to the public, and helping him meet other budding authors. The Dargon
Project is an exciting and rewarding project, and has made for some
excellent fantasy fiction. The project is open to all fantasy writers;
users who are interested in writing for the project should contact the
editor.
An index of back issues may be requested from the editor, and the BitNet
servers TCSSERVE@TCSVM and SILMARIL@FINHUTC both maintain complete FSFnet
libraries. BitNet server CSNEWS@MAINE also maintains the most recent issue.
DO NOT refer problems, questions, etc. to these servers.
