ROADMAP@UA1VM ROADMAP FOR THE INFORMATION SUPERHIGHWAY
ROADMAP@UA1VM.UA.EDU
ROADMAP was a free, twenty-seven lesson Internet training workshop conducted via LISTSERV in the Fall of 1994 and early Spring of 1995. The response to the Roadmap workshop has been so incredible -- over 80,000 people from 77 countries have participated in the workshop's four distribution lists -- that I have had to close the workshop's subscription lists to new subscribers.
Wait ... it gets worse. At this point in time, I really don't have plans to repeat the Roadmap workshop anytime in the near future.
That's the bad news. The good news is that even though you can no longer subscribe to Roadmap, I have set up a way that you can get all of the Roadmap workshop lessons sent to you! I have placed every single one of the Roadmap workshop's 27 lessons on a computer at the University of Alabama, and you can retrieve the lessons using a few, simple e-mail commands (am I a great guy or what?).
To find out how to retrieve the Roadmap workshop lessons, and to find out a little more about the Roadmap workshop itself, all you have to do is send an e-mail letter to
LISTSERV@UA1VM.UA.EDU
(that's "you-ay-won-vee-em") with the command
GET MAP PACKAGE F=MAIL
in the *BODY* of your e-mail letter.
NOTE: Simply replying to the letter that you are reading right now with a GET MAP PACKAGE F=MAIL command will *NOT* work. You must send a *NEW* letter to
LISTSERV@UA1VM.UA.EDU
with the command
GET MAP PACKAGE F=MAIL
in the body of your letter for your command to work.
After you send your letter off, a computer at the University of Alabama will process your letter, and will -- usually within 24 hours -- e-mail you two letters: one telling you a little more about the Roadmap workshop, and another telling you how you can retrieve the workshop lessons with a few, simple e-mail commands.
Cool, huh?
You can also find the Roadmap workshop archives on the University of Alabama's CMS Gopher server (UA1VM.UA.EDU) in the "Network Resources, Services and Information" menu, or on my World Wide Web homepage at http://ua1vm.ua.edu/~crispen/crispen.html
I do have one small request, though: please do NOT write to POSTMASTER@UA1VM.UA.EDU,
POSTMASTER@UA.EDU, LISTMASTER@UA1VM.UA.EDU, or ROADMAP-REQUEST@UA1VM.UA.EDU asking them to
add you to Roadmap. The workshop's subscription lists really ARE closed <
Thank you again for your interest in the Roadmap workshop, and I hope that you will enjoy the lessons.
