Hubbard) Newsgroups: comp.os.386bsd.questions,comp.os.386bsd.announce Subject: Automated info server for FreeBSD is now available Followup-To: poster Date: 25 Sep 1994 23:54:35 -0700 Organization: University of California, Berkeley Lines: 26 Sender: cgd@agate.berkeley.edu Approved: 386bsd-announce-request@agate.berkeley.edu Message-ID: <35v475$nub@agate.berkeley.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: agate.berkeley.edu Summary: info server for freebsd available Keywords: info freebsd freebsd.org For a short information packet on FreeBSD, send mail to: info@FreeBSD.org This will send you back an automated reply giving you a little general information about FreeBSD and instructions about where to go for more help. This is only the first, somewhat crude, incarnation of this service and I do have plans to make future versions handle doc service, small volume source requests, bug fixes and bug fix info, etc. Any suggestions are of course welcomed! Any contributions of automated doc server code for majordomo (in PERL) are even more welcome! ;-) To avoid confusion, I should also take this opportunity to announce the creation of the FreeBSD.org domain. You may send mail to team members or mailing lists at FreeBSD.org (e.g. "hackers@FreeBSD.org") or get access to the latest FreeBSD sources at ftp.freeBSD.org. Mail to the "old" addresses at freefall.cdrom.com will still, of course, work - this is simply for convenience (a lot easier to remember)! Thanks! Jordan
