  524.  
  525.  
  526. Many newsgroups contain articles which are posted on a periodic basis.
  527. These articles tend to be useful for both novice and experienced
  528. users, as they usually fall into one of these categories:
  529.  
  530.     1. How-to articles explaining some of the basics and fine
  531.     points of network usage, etiquette, standards, etc.
  532.  
  533.     2. Introductory notes about one or more newsgroups, covering
  534.     policies (if any) for submissions to that group, usage, etc.
  535.     Common questions and answers pertinent to a newsgroup(s).
  536.  
  537.     3. Indexes of archives, or pointers to archives for various
  538.     groups.  Periodic newsletters, calendars, pointers to
  539.     publications.
  540.  
  541.     4. Statistical information and reports about Usenet; tables of
  542.     Usenet hosts, links, etc.
  543.  
  544.     5. Miscellany, including small useful sources, "fun" lists, and so
  545.     on.
  546.  
  547. This is a list of the periodic postings known at this time; each
  548. posting is listed in an entry that includes who posts the article,
  549. which newsgroup(s) it appears in, what Subject is used, and how often
  550. the article is posted.  The list is sorted by Newsgroups and Subject
  551. information.  The character '*' is used as a wildcard, e.g. "v*INF1"
  552. matches "v01INF1", "v02INF1", etc.
  553.  
  554. The Date in a posting's entry indicates, where given, when the
  555. posting last appeared.  However, it may be inaccurate if (a) the
  556. maintainer of the posting has changed the Subject line, or (b) the
  557. most recent version has not reached my site, or (c) the entry actually
  558. corresponds to multiple postings because of wildcarding.
  559.  
  560. The Archive-name, where present, indicates the archive name that
  561. appeared in the posting when it was last posted.  Note that if one
  562. entry matches multiple postings because of wildcarding, then only one
  563. archive name will appear.  Similarly, the Summary indicates the
  564. summary that appeared.
  565.  
  566. Corrections and additions (via MAIL) are most welcome.  New entries
  567. for the list should be submitted in the same form as the entries
  568. below, with From, Newsgroups, Subject, Frequency, and (optionally)
  569. Comments lines, in that order.
  570.  
  571. From the summer of 1989, when this list was created, until February,
  572. 1992, it was maintained by Rich Kulawiec <rsk@gynko.circ.upenn.edu>.
  573. He has handed it over to me because my position as moderator of
  574. news.answers makes it easier for me to keep track of periodic
  575. informational postings, and because he would like to devote more time
  576. and energy to other efforts.
  577.  
  578. Several archives of USENET periodic informational postings exist.  To
  579. find out more about them and how to access them, see the posting
  580. entitled "Introduction to news.answers" in the news.answers newsgroup.
  581. If you do not know how to get that newsgroup and/or your site does not
  582. receive it and/or that article has expired in it, you can retrieve it
  583. via anonymous ftp from pit-manager.mit.edu [18.172.1.27] in the file
  584. /pub/usenet/news.answers/news-answers/introduction.  If you do not
  585. have access to anonymous ftp, you can retrieve it by sending a mail
  586. message to mail-server@pit-manager.mit.edu with the command "send
  587. usenet/news.answers/news-answers/introduction" in the message.
