Intro
-----
This compilation is copyrighted 1992, 1993 by Stephanie da Silva.  No 
part of it may be reproduced in any form, without explicit permission 
from the author.

This is a list of mailing lists available primarily through the Internet 
and the UUCP network.  A mailing list is different from a newsgroup 
because you do not receive anything unless you specifically request it. 
To be added to a mailing list, please mail a note to the contact for that 
list, listed below.

Some of the lists mentioned may be available as limited-distribution
newsgroups.  Contact the administrator for exact details.

Please note the following caveats: publication of a list here does not
guarantee that you will be allowed to join as a member.  That is up to
the moderator and readers, and they have the right to restrict access
to their list as they see fit.  Mailing lists use MUCH less system
overhead on a world-wide basis but do tend to increase loading on the
moderators' machines so the number of people that can be added to a list
may be limited by machine resources as well.

In your request to join a list, please include a signature or some other 
copy of your mailing address.  DO NOT RELY on your "From:" mail header 
arriving unmangled or even vaguely representing what you think your 
preferred address is.

The mailing lists are current to my knowledge, however, I cannot 
guarantee the accuracy of the listings.  Keeping the entries up to 
date is the responsibility of the individual list owners.

This list is archived and available by anonymous ftp at rtfm.mit.edu
under the directory /pub/usenet/news.answers/mail/mailing-lists.

If you have a list that you want added to this posting, send a request
to arielle@taronga.com.  Please include the list name, contact address
and a brief description of the list, in the format of the mailing lists
already included.

    civil rights legislation and prohibits the drafting of any
    new legislation.  The amendment was spearheaded by a right-
    wing organization inappropriately self-named Colorado Family
    Values (CFV).  It is our understanding that they have no
    intention of stopping their hate campaign here; they intended
    to push for legislation with a stronger discriminatory flavor
    here in Colorado and surrounding states.

    Two mail/news groups have been created in response to this
    discriminatory amendment. 

    amend2-discuss is for people who are discussing the
    implications and issues surrounding the passing of amendment 2.

    amend2-info is a moderated mailing list for people interested
    in information on the implication and issues of #2.

    Sending mail to either mailing list has the effect of also
    posting the message to the corresponding shadow newsgroup.
    We encourage people to use the mailing list address when
    disseminating information so that those people who are on the
    mailing list but who do not have access to news can benefit
    from the discussion/information.

    To subscribe to either list, send mail to:
    	Majordomo@cs.colorado.edu
    where the body of the message is:
    	subscribe <listname>
