This message is to announce the creation of a new  mailing  list,  UNIX-SW.
The  purpose  of  this  list  is  to  create  a  vehicle for announcing the
availablity of new major packages of UNIX / 'C' language  software  on  the
SIMTEL20  repository.  This list will also be used to mail periodic updates
of the list of all UNIX software held at SIMTEL20 (probably monthly).

UNIX-SW is not a forum for discussion of this  software.  Such  discussions
are  more appropriately held with the authors, or in other groups.  Rather,
we are attempting to  make  known  to  the  widest  possible  audience  the
contents of this large repository of public-domain software.

SIMTEL20 is a DEC-20 machine running the TOPS20 operating  system,  located
at  White  Sands  Missile  Range, New Mexico.  The machine is a host on the
Defense Data Network (DDN), and as such, gives users located on other hosts
the  capability  of  directly  transferring this software via the FTP (file
transfer process) command.

Requests to be added to the mailing list, and administrative questions, should
be directed to:
