What's the current infrastructure/linkage between L-CAD@LISTSERV.UH.EDU
and lugnet.cad.dev?  Is everybody now subscribed to both lists?  Is
there any gatewaying going on?

I don't have any preference here--the current situation  is a
transitional state (eventually, we'll all be on lugnet,
L-CAD@LISTSERV.UH.EDU will be deactivated, and we'll all be happy).  I
just want to be sure I know what's happening currently.

[Followups set to lugnet.cad.dev]

A new newsgroup lugnet.cad.dev has just been created for developers of LEGO-
style CAD systems and components.  Here is the charter:


  lugnet.cad.dev (group):
     CAD developers forum: in-depth technical discussions, software
     architecture, interoperability, tools, parts planning & tracking,
     standards, etc. (Formerly the L-CAD mailing list).

  lugnet.cad (group and hierarchy):
     Discussions of CAD software/models/animations, LDraw, LDLITE,
     LeoCAD, L3G0, L2P, L3P, BlockCAD, etc.


This is a new home for the L-CAD mailing list <L-CAD@LISTSERV.UH.EDU>,
which has decided to make the transition from a mailing list into a
newsgroup and rejoin with the larger online LEGO fan community.

To make the transition as painless as possible for L-CAD list subscribers,
everyone who was subscribed to L-CAD is now subscribed to lugnet.cad.dev
via e-mail.  Subscribers can, of course, remove lugnet.cad.dev from the list
of groups they receive by mail and choose to read via NNTP news instead.

Doug Finney is investigating options for dealing with stragglers who miss
the move and later send a message to the L-CAD@LISTSERV.UH.EDU list.

But can we set the l.c.d for a Digest? I preferred the LCAD list in Digest form, this Live Feed is driving me nuts. I already get 100+ emails/day at home, and 3-900/day at work. (...) (26 years ago, 10-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
