-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Comp.os.linux.announce is available as a mailing list as well, on
vger.rutegers.edu with most other Linux lists. It is not a news-to-mail
gateway; instead, my posting script sends a message both to news and the
list.
I'm not the list administrator (that's poor David Miller, who maintains
vger in his free time), but the list has still caused me a few mild
headaches (people think I'm the admin, so they ask me for help; my name
appears in the headers, so some of the replies and bounces come to me,
and so on).
There are currently about 1200 subscribers to the mailing list. I don't
want to leave them out in the cold, but I hope to avoid some of the extra
work it's causing me.
Therefore, I'm looking for someone to set up and maintain an independent
news-to-mail gateway (in one direction only) for comp.os.linux.announce.
I you want to do it, please drop me a line. I don't have the time to
help you set the thing up, so you'd have to know what you do. You'll
also have to be able to deal with bounce messages and other problems
with the mailing list.
Lars Wirzenius, liw@iki.fi.
