I posted a note to comp.protocols.iso.x400 in response to a question about
X.500 I found there asking if there was enough interest to start a 
comp.protocols.iso.x500.  Since there seems to be some interest in starting
such a group, I thought I'd continue the discussion here so as not to burden 
the X.400 folks.

Some people have replied directly to me.  I think it might be better if those
same people replied to this note so we can all see just how much interest 
there is, or if X.500 is better left to Mailing lists.  I would also like to
see the discussion open to as wide a group of people as possible.

There was also a mention that the existing Mailing lists could be gatewayed
to a notes group.  I think this is a good idea.  By having a group, people
who are interested could participate without going to the trouble of
subscribing to a mailing list.  Many people have fleeting interest or
some general questions easily answered by people who commonly read a group
like this.  This is a better way for people to get answers then to send
a request to an entire mailing list.

Furthermore, many in-depth discussions arise from simple questions 
and answers because the readership is large.  I have seem many innocent
notes spawn potent technical discussions which I think are very valuable.

I, for one, would very much like to see any existing directory/X.500 mailing 
lists gatewayed to an X.500 notes/news group.

Cheers,

Brian Atkins

I would vote yes for an X.500 newsgroup.  Someone needs to bite the
bullet and slog through the Usenet procedures (I just did it for
comp.multimedia which should startup in the next week or so).

I agree, BTW, that the netnews paradigm is better than a mailing
list for this type of thing...

Hello Brian (et al) --

Before we go much further, I suggest that we inventory the availalbe
X.500 related mailing lists.  There are several, but I do not feel
that I know what they all are.  It may be that they are all focused on
subsets, and wowuld not sensibly be merged into some global newsgroup.

At least, we must understand that the reverse flow would not make much
sense (from a general X.500 newsgroup to the separate focused mailing
lists).  Best...\Stef

It seems to be to set up a X.500 group would be a right decision at this time.

In article <5560078@hpindda.cup.hp.com>, atkins@hpindda.cup.hp.com (Brian
Atkins) asked for input on creation of a newsgroup devoted to X.500.

I'm definitely in favor of it.  And I would also appreciate seeing a list
of current X.500 related mailing lists.  [If you know of one and send me
mail I'll post a summary, unless someone posts a definitive list first.]
