I beleive that if Mr. Hart used a little restraint in the lenght of his
postings and edited them down to material relevant to NETTRAIN then it would be
appropriate to post them here.  A quick note about the NUSIRG (?) guide and
Jean's SURFING document would have been sufficient.

Mr. Hart's general attitude seems to be that he can post to where ever he
thinks it is appropriate.  We need to let him know that NETTRAIN and the
INTERNET in general are not his personal vanity press.

>May I respectfully suggest that Mr. Hart begin his own Bitnet discussion group
>so that those with interest in his project could subscribe.

 Mr. Hart has his own Bitnet listserv -- it's GUTNBERG@UIUCVMD.  It's
 a standard Bitnet list.  To subscribe, send a one line e-mail to
 LISTSERV@UIUCVMD containing the message SUBSCRIBE GUTNBERG FIRSTNAME LASTNAME
 where FIRSTNAME and LASTNAME are your name.

 The listserv distributes all of the Hart corpus.

 Given the open availability of this list, I would urge the NETTRAIN moderator
 to delete the Newsletter from NETTRAIN.

Someone suggested there be a Project Gutenberg list.  There already is
and it has been around quite a while.  GUTNBERG@vmd.cso.uiuc.edu

As a subscriber to a number of lists where Michael Hart's newsletters,
etc., are posted, I would prefer that he set up his own mailing list for
the Newsletters and any other lengthy posts, and confine his posts to
NETTRAIN and other lists to brief annnouncements and on-topic comments.
In that way, people who wnat the Newsletter can be assured of getting it,
and foccussed lists can remain focussed.

Whenever I see a Project Gutenburg posting I press my delete key. I've
completely read a couple of the postings. It takes a while to get to the
really relevant information, then there's not much of it. I feel, as
my colleagues on net-train may also feel, that I don't have the time
(or the interest?) to deal with such a lenghty posting.

I would much rather see the a summary of Gutenburg as was posted
earlier by Jim Miles; the summary would be even better if the author
removed the "attitude" from it.

The Gutenberg Newsletter seems to show up in nearly ALL the lists I
subscribe to.
I think that the best alternative is to set itself up as a separate
subscription. That way those who want to receive it, can just subscribe to it.
