NEW FORUM FOR VLAB MOTION / MOVIESHOP USERS

Like many other users of the fine and unique Macrosystem NLE products, I 
have been frustrated by the difficulty in making contact with other 
users.  This has nothing to do with tech support, which in the US has 
been great (Thanks, Sherwood!), but I want to be able to discuss 
problems, techniques, and issues with others.

Most of the information I have been able to find has been scattered 
through the Amiga newsgroups and is hard to follow amidst the zillions of 
other threads.  I have refrained from posting, as I didn't think too many 
would be looking there in the first place...

Thanks to "list-owner" Bill Ranck at Virginia Polytechnic (US), we are
cleared to use an obsolescent Listserv e-mail list called VIDEOTEC.  The
advantages to this are that people without Usenet access (but obviously
with e-mail) can be included, and that VLab Motion / MovieShop / Draco /
etc. can be discussed in a noise-free environment, at least for now. 

To join VIDEOTEC, send an e-mail message to LISTSERV@VTVM1.CC.VT.EDU with
no subject, containing only the line SUBSCRIBE VIDEOTEC [your name].  You
should receive confirmation and information on setting your "preferences". 

Please note that I have just found this forum and don't have the knowledge
or access to moderate or maintain the list.  Mr. Ranck was kind enough to
let this little marauding band of very particular video folks use the list
he maintains.  Please follow the Listserv instructions carefully and
hopefully we won't wear out our welcome. 

In particular, the thing that I have seen drive other list owners and
subscribers nuts is when people try to send Listserv command (subscribe,
digest, unsubscribe) to the list (VIDEOTEC) address rather than to the
Listserv address.  If you haven't used e-mail lists before, don't be
frightened -- just do what the instructions suggest. 

Enough lecturing.  I hope VLab Motion users will pass this information on 
to others so we can have a lively and useful forum for all who are 
interested.  Hope to read you on VIDEOTEC!
