Anybody can send the letter to the editor and it will be published on the list under his name. The author can request anonymity and it will be respected entirely. The frequency of publishing is about one issue per day or less. The language is originally Slovene, but other languages appear as well. pkd-list Contact: pkd-list-request@wang.com Purpose: The discussion of the works and life of Philip K. Dick (1928-1982), one of the world's most unusual science fiction writers. Topics include his books and stories, and books and stories about him and his life; however, discussion can (of necessity) branch out into the nature of reality, consciousness and religious experience. Planet Yip Contact: awerling@nmsu.edu (Andrew Werling) Purpose: This is a general junk list, in that just about anything that listmembers submit or that I find on my own that I think is cool, bizarre, or just interesting gets forwarded on to the list. It's been a pretty fun and moderately active list lately. POET Contact: poet-request@scruz.ucsc.edu (Jon Luini) Purpose: A workshop/critique forum for poetic works of all descriptions in progress. POP Contact: pop-request@jhunix.hcf.jhu.edu (Andy S Poling) Purpose: This list was formed, out of desperation for an organized source of information, to discuss the Post Office Protocol (POP2 and POP3 - described in RFCs 918, 937, 1081, and 1082) and implimentations thereof. The driving interest was lack of easily obtained knowledge of available POP2 and POP3 servers and clients. This mailing list is meant to provide this information. Anyone, whether consumer or product provider is invited to participate. porschephiles Contact: porschephiles-request@bcm.tmc.edu (Stan Hanks) Purpose: Discussion of Porsches. posix-ada Contact: umd5!grebyn!posix-ada-request -or- posix-ada-request@grebyn.com (Karl Nyberg) Purpose: to discuss the Ada binding of the Posix standard. This is the IEEE P1003.5 working group. posix-testing Contact: posix-testing-request@mindcraft.com (Chuck Karish) Purpose: This list will provide a forum for discussion of issues related to testing operating systems for conformance to the various POSIX standards and proposed standards (IEEE 1003.x and whatever derivative standards may emerge from the NIST, ANSI, ISO, and so on). These issues include problems related to test suites in general, testability of various features of the standards, and portability of the test suites to the many very different POSIX implementations we expect to see in the near future. We'll focus on the test suites themselves, rather than on the standards to which they test (notably POSIX p1003.3). prion Contact: prion-request@stolaf.edu (Chris Swanson) Purpose: While the main goal of the digest is to provide a resource for researchers working with prions and interested bystanders, all are welcome. All articles posted will be included in the next digest. If a poster feels that his posting is of an urgent nature, it may be distributed sooner than the regular digest.

However, the list's scope is now broader than this; we welcome and encourage participation from people involved in all kinds of small-scale, independent, progressive and/or alternative media, including newspapers, newsletters, and radio and video shows, whether campus-based or not.
