Subject: mt-xlib mailing lists - Clarification
Status: RO

The purpose of this mailing list (mt-xlib@xsoft.xerox.com) is to
discuss general issues dealing with the MT Xlib we have just released.
This includes using the library, bugs, or why we did what we did.

The mt-xlib-comment@xsoft.xerox.com list is for people to send
specific questions or comments directly to the developers of the
library.

Please note:

These are NOT Consortium mailing lists.  If you are a consortium
member or have issues with Xlib that you think the consortium needs to
address you can post to the xlib@expo.lcs.mit.edu list.
