Dear Mr. Vielmetti
As a keeper of comp.archives , I think you should be fair to your
users and give them some background so that the draft version of
the report of FARNEYT's Strategic Plan Committee is in some context.
I append a copy of an article I coauthored on the regional networks
which attempts to give some perspective on their history and future.
This is no one's official position, but simply the opinion's of the
author but does, I believe, provide some useful material.
Sincerely Yours,
Richard Mandelbaum

I had assumed when I posted the message that the esteemed membe
rs of
this list would be able to fetch the document for themselves, d
ecide
as reasonably well informed members of the internet community w
hat
they thought of it, and correct me if I was somewhat hyperbolic
in
my description. You characterize this as "bait[ing] them with
misattributed sound bites". I take offense to this.
I maintain an extensive collection of release notes and softwar
e
announcements, archive site descriptions, abstracts of papers,
et al.
which I publish on the USENET as "comp.archives". Opinionated,
strongly worded, and reasonably complete descriptions of a pack
age or
service are the most interesting to read, and I publish them
whenever I can find them. Lame, boring mutterings are left
behind, no one has time to read them. I try to write stuff tha
t I
would want to read later.
Do I bait people with sound bites? Well, I don't often worry a
bout
that too much. If my descriptions are awful, or if I post awfu
l
descriptions written by someone else, folks stop reading what I
post.
So far that has not been the case.
back issues of comp.archives are available for anonymous ftp fr
om
wuarchive.wustl.edu:/usenet/comp.archives/
cs.toronto.edu:/indexed-archives/archive/comp.archives/
Mark Moraes at the U of Toronto provides the indexing. Compare
for yourself
whether what I wrote was more than a standard deviation away fr
om the
other opinionated but interesting references in the collection.
