Subject: Community/Rural Related Mailing Lists

This is a list of Internet/BITnet mailing lists which focus on or deal
with Community, Civic, Rural, or Local issues, people, culture and
governments. This especially includes information on that which has a
direct relation to or effect on these things, such as community networking,
access to public information, and the National Information Infrastructure
(NII or Information SuperHighway[yes, many netizens hate the latter term]).

The absolute latest version of this list is always available via
anonymous FTP from ftp.netcom.com in directory:
*
pub/amcgee/community
*
If you only have access to email, then you can use FTPmail to do
essentially the same thing. Send a message to this address:
*
ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com or ftpmail@pa.dec.com
*
With these specifications:
*
Subject: <blank>
Body of Message: help <carriage return> quit
*
Or to this address:
*
bitftp@pucc.bitnet
*
With these specifications:
*
Body of Message: help
*
In either case a help file will be returned to you explaining how
to use the FTPmail or bitFTP facility.
*
Mailservers that might be closer and provide the same service are:
*
ftpmail@sunsite.unc.edu
ftpmail@cs.uow.edu.au
ftpmail@ftp.uni-stuttgart.de
ftpmail@grasp.insa-lyon.fr
ftpmail@src.doc.ic.ac.uk
*
bitftp@plearn.bitnet
bitftp@dearn.bitnet
*
The absolute latest version of this list is also always available
by sending email to or fingering:
*
CommInfo: [amcgee@grex.cyberspace.org]
*
Remember: the above address is NOT for correspondence.
*
The absolute latest version of this list is also always available on
the BDPA BAC BBS(1-707-552-3314) and on the Data Bits Online BBS
(1-213-737-2963) in the following file:
*
COMMUNET.MSG = Internet/BITnet Mailing Lists and News Services
*
Note: These naming conventions also hold true for the FTP archive.
*
Note: The list may also be available as a bulletin item, so check
the bulletin menu on each system for a descriptive listing.
*
This list is up to date as of APRIL 01, 1994.
