If you have ftp access, you might want to take advantage of a one week
opportunity to pick up the initial articles from this mailing list, thanks
to David Stampe at the University of Hawaii.

( N.B.: the "native.lang" conference is available only at IGC/APC hosts,
  like PeaceNet/EcoNet/GreenNet/Pegasus/Fredsnaetet, etc.)

Subscribers with hosts on the Internet can get an archive of back
numbers 00-51 of nn.lang by anonymous ftp on uhccux.uhcc.hawaii.edu.
The file is in the directory "linguist/" and is called nn-lang.tar.Z .
It will be available only for a week or two, after which uhccux is
being unplugged.

To ftp the archive, give the (shell) command:
	ftp uhccux.uhcc.hawaii.edu
Answer the login prompt with:
	anonymous
and the password prompt with anything, or as a courtesy, your email address:
	PASSWORD
Once logged in, connect to the linguist directory:
	cd linguist
Use the binary setting for the transfer:
	binary
Then ask for the archive file:
	get nn-lang.tar.Z
When the transfer is complete (64863 bytes), log out of uhccux,
disconnect, and quit ftp:
	bye

To unpack the archive into a directory, make a directory DIR.  On unix:
	mkdir DIR
Connect to the directory.  On unix:
	cd DIR
Uncompress (zcat) and unarchive (tar xf) the archive:
	zcat ../nn-lang.tar.Z | tar xvf -
Or in two steps:
	uncompress ../nn-lang.tar.Z
	tar xvf nn-lang.tar

The result should be a directory DIR/ containing files 00 through 51,
totalling 120430 bytes.  Plus the archive file ../nn-lang.tar(.Z), which
you can delete.  Unless you'd like to put it somewhere accessible by
anonymous ftp on YOUR host machine, and announce it here.
