Would it be possible for the maintainer of info-unix to mail a copy of the
Frequently Asked Questions to all new subscribers??  A section on submitting
articles to that side of the list, as well as signing off, could be of help
to those readers.

I'm suprised that there isn't an internet site which has these available for
anonymous FTP.  I don't have a very recent copy of the monthly postings, but
I've put what I do have in pub/News on plains.nodak.edu so that all the
info-unix readers on the Internet can anonymously FTP them from there.  I'll
update them when Gene posts them again next month, so you might want check
back then if you want a current copy.
