In late August, Peter G. Neumann of SRI set up a mailing list to discuss
risks to the public in computer systems. That list is fed into USENET as
fa.risks, and has been distributed to those news customers who take their fa
feeds via Stanford. I have been waiting for the "official" fa feeds at
Berkeley to pick it up, but they haven't.

This newsgroup has a lot of worthwhile and timely material in it. We still
have Volume 1 Number 1 online at Glacier. I decided that the right thing to
do would be to start feeding the group net-wide, even though I don't have
"official" permission, in order that USENET readers can get in at the
beginning for a change. Usually the ARPANET lists are not fed to USENET
until they are several months old. 

(My apologies to those sites who have been getting fa.risks all along; there
is no simple way for me to restrict the distribution of this message to the
sites that have not been receiving it).

14 messages are accumulated in fa.risks, representing 6 weeks of ARPA traffic.
