Hi all CoCo enthusiasts,

Today, the famous but reclusive Bill Barden Jr. joined the CoCo list,
giving a great lift to the CoCo community! Bill has been retired for
several years, and it is a true pleasure to read his words again.

You can participate in discussions with Bill and 250 other CoCo users
through the various options that supplanted the pucc.princeton.edu list
in October 2003.

The alternative system is a highly active community with over 1,000
postings per month on two lists and a gated (spam-free) newsgroup.
Community is a wonderful thing!

The Yahoo list (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ColorComputer/) now has
240+ members.
The MaltedMedia list (http://five.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/coco/)
now has 180+ members.
The Gmane newsgroup
(news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.hardware.tandy.coco) now has 7600+
postings.
Posts from both lists and the newsgroup are cross-posted for continuity.


To subscribe to the Yahoo list, visit the page at
   http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ColorComputer/

To subscribe to the MaltedMedia list, send an email to
   coco-request@maltedmedia.com 
with 'subscribe' in the subject line. You will receive a password and
further information. You can also use this link:
   http://five.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/coco/
(If you have not posted to the previous CoCo list in the past four years
under your requested subscription email address, you will first hear
from the MaltedMedia list owner. All new subscriptions wait for
moderation, so you won't hear from the moderator during certain sleeping
hours.)

The mail-to-news gateway from maltedmedia is working through this free
news server:
   news.gmane.org
The newsgroup is:
   gmane.comp.hardware.tandy.coco
You can also use this link on some news clients:
   news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.hardware.tandy.coco
Web access is here:
   http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.hardware.tandy.coco

Postings to the gmane newsgroup are spam-checked. Email addresses are
also encrypted, so private email may be sent only by subscribers. Email
addresses cannot be harvested.

Addresses must be valid & verified to post in either the newsgroup or
the lists (please avoid blocked names such as anon, anonymous, nym, and
nobody). You will receive a monthly reminder with unsubscribe
information.

Note for Eudora users: Please turn off the X-Sender header if you're
worried about your address being harvested. Here is a utility that works
with Eudora versions 3 to 6:

Because of a spike in attempted spam postings, non-member postings to
the MaltedMedia list are automatically rejected without a bounce notice.

Everyone with an interest in the CoCo is welcome!

Dennis
