Well, I've finally got around to posting the lists again.
Sorry it took so long, but I've recently started a job (as well as starting
back at uni this week), so life's pretty busy right now.

Anyway, enough excuses and on with the lists.

I'm interested in expanding my two lists to cover {Free,Net,386}BSD as well,
so that they would become a sort of "Free Unix" User Groups List and a "Free
Unix" FTP/BBS/People list.  So if any *BSD fans out there could let me know
where *BSD is mirrored in Australia, and also if anybody is willing to lend
people their FreeBSD or NetBSD (or even 386BSD...) distributions, could
you please get in touch with me at one of the following addresses :
	andrew@bing.apana.org.au
	ajcos1@aurora.cc.monash.edu.au
	andrew@unico.com.au

Thanks for your help,
 Andrew.

You can get the list from one of two places :

Mailing List :  Setting up an SCA announcements list NOW! Keep an eye on 
                aus.computers.* for details.

Notes : The Linux support is only a recent addition to the group, so we'll need
        some good user involvement to build the group up to a good base. Free
        parking, free entry and a comfortable air conditioned environment make
        the facilities ideal.

        Hope to see you there!
