I posted the previous item just to let people know that if you are on
Berkeley's mailing list you could expect the announcement in the mail 
Real Soon Now.  There have been several inquiries in private email
asking for the information, or suggesting that I post the announcement.
Well, it's about 13 pages, mostly printed on both sides, so I'm not up for
typing it in.  I don't know why Berkeley didn't put it on the net, or
at least give an email address for requesting copies of the packet, but
they didn't.  You can presumably get a copy of the packet by writing to

Pauline Schwartz, Distribution Coordinator
Computer Systems Research Group
Computer Science Division, EECS
University of California
Berkeley, CA  94720

To get the distribution you have to send them several signed forms from the
packet and a thousand dollars.  But they seem to say that you can redistribute
it without paying them anything so long as you keep their copyright notice.

There's nothing in the announcement about the material being put up for
ftp somewhere.
