This is exactly the problem. Unfortunately, I'm snowed under at this time manually putting together SIG mailing lists groups (we are not at this time connected to the internet, so processing is quite tedious and not timely). I'm eager for volunteers! As per Bill's suggestion, here's a breakdown of some of the suggested topics and groups: comp.os.386bsd (general questions and trivia) comp.os.386bsd.kernel (discussion on kernel content/structure) comp.os.386bsd.windows (ditto, on windowing systems like X) comp.os.386bsd.sharedlib (shared library and programming environment) comp.os.386bsd.net (networking topics) comp.os.386bsd.bugs (new bugs) comp.os.386bsd.ann (announcements, fixes, additions) I'd love to hear back from people, and help/suggestions are gratefully appreciated. Thank you. Lynne Jolitz.
