MAILING LIST

ANNCBT maintains an email mailing list at the university of illinois at urbana-champaign, where we distribute announcements about upcoming talks and related events. Most information should be available here (as well as on our newsgroup), but the mailing list is our official means of distributing information, and may contain last-minutechanges not available elsewhere. The mailing list also allows members to engage in group discussions (although it is used primarily to organize meetings).

Note: the mailing list was, until recently, limited to university ofillinois at urbana-champaign students and faculty only. Begining2/20/98, the list is being re-opened to the public, according to policies enumerated in the question & answer section.

If you wish to subscribe to the mailing list,

Send mail to: listserv@postoffice.cso.uiuc.edu
With text: subscribe anncbt-l
(note that the character after the hyphen is a lowercase L).

To un-subscribe to the mailing list,

Send mail to: listserv@postoffice.cso.uiuc.edu
With text: unsubscribe anncbt-l

Once subscribed, to send a message to the entire group,

Address it to: anncbt-l@postoffice.cso.uiuc.edu

To limit the kinds of messages you receive, send a message to listserv limiting your subscribed topics:

Send mail to: listserv@postoffice.cso.uiuc.edu
With text: SET anncbt-l TOPICS: topic1 topic2 topic3 ...

Where topic1, topic2, topic3, etc. are from:

NEWSGROUP

The newsgroup uiuc.cs.neural-nets is used for general ANNCBT announcements, but more importantly for:

material relevant to people outside our mailing list and regular attendees.
discussions that might be considered inappropriate for group email.

You should expect that:

some group members will never read the newsgroup.
a substantial number of people outside the group will be reading the newsgroup regularly.
