1) List numbering mix-up

Some of you may have noticed that I managed to get the numbering wrong
again :-(  Sorry.  Guess it's not true that everything I needed to know
I learned in kindergarten ;-)

Anyway, there was no #20 and there were two #21s.

2) What are these "Cook Your Gopher" sessions?

I've recently mailed out three "How to cook your xxx client" sessions and
one "How to cook your xxx server" session (two more will follow tomorrow).

Remember:

The server is the piece of software that has some information or knows
about some service.

The client is the piece of software that knows how to talk to the server,
request the information and display it for you.

*********
NOTE: If you are only a gopher user you do not need these sessions!
*********

These sessions are mainly of interest to system people.  They provide
details on how to obtain and install the gopher software.


3) How to get previous sessions

The list is also gatewayed into the bit.listserv.gophern USENET News
group.  If you have access to News, we encourage you to unsubscribe from
this list and read the sessions via news (this would save network traffic
and CPU time on various machines).  To unsubscribe, send e-mail to
listserv@ubvm.cc.buffalo.edu with the following command as the first (and
only) line in the body of the message:

unsub gophern

If you joined this list late or missed any of the sessions, you can pick
them up as follows:

1) via anonymous ftp on ubvm.cc.buffalo.edu in the GOPHERN directory
   URL: aftp://ubvm.cc.buffalo.edu/gophern

2) from listserv@ubvm.cc.buffalo.edu
   send the command: index gophern
   find the session you want and send the command: get gophern 93-xxxxx

3) from gopher on ubvmsb.cc.buffalo.edu in the directory:
   Internet Related Information/Let's Go Gopherin' Workshop/
   URL: gopher://ubvmsb.cc.buffalo.edu:70/11gopher_root1:[internet.gophern]

Please DO NOT send Richard or I e-mail asking us to send you sessions or
to unsubscribe you from this list.
