RRE notes

``` As a periodic reminder, to end your subscription to RRE, send a message that looks like:

To: rre-request@weber.ucsd.edu Subject: unsubscribe

Another reminder: it is still my goal to get a copy of "Networking on the Network" into the hands of every graduate student in the world. If you happen to know any graduate students who might not have seen this useful guide to the art of professional networking, or you if you simply know somebody who knows a lot of graduate students, I would greatly appreciate it if you'd pass a copy along to them. To fetch it, send a message that looks like:

To: rre-request@weber.ucsd.edu Subject: archive send network

An administrative note: my policy is to unsubscribe anybody whose computer tells me "user unknown". If you get unsubscribed without asking, that's probably what happened. Just go ahead and subscribe again, the same way you did before, by sending a message that looks like:

To: rre-request@weber.ucsd.edu Subject: subscribe yourfirstname yourlastname

Also, a while back I suggested that you subscribe to the Communet digest, a very interesting discussion of community networking. Unfortunately, I didn't tell you have to get the digest, as opposed to getting every message in your box separately. First, as I said, if you'd like to subscribe to the list itself, send a message like:

To: listserv@uvmvm.uvm.edu Subject: anything

subscribe communet

Or, if you'd like to get the digest rather than a slew of separate messages, send another message that looks like:

To: listserv@uvmvm.uvm.edu Subject: anything

subscribe communet set communet digest

(It's too bad the digest itself doesn't tell you this.)

Finally, I've enclosed descriptions of several files that have been added to the RRE archive over the last month. Most have been circulated on RRE, but some have not. To retrieve any of them, send a message that looks like this:

To: rre-request@weber.ucsd.edu Subject: archive send <>

See you.
