Public Internet Facilities for Queers, Activists and PWAs

The PWA Coalition, with the help of Boston Computer Society and Steam.net is 
pleased to offer a number of publicly 
accessable internet resources to Queers, Activists and People With AIDS.  
Whenever possible these services are offered at no 
charge. Some services require a minimal donation to PWAC to defray operational 
expenses.  The following services are available

DIALUP Slip feeds
2400 - 14.4k Dialup SLIP access is available through our Boston Office.
There is no charge to PWAs on disability for up to 10 hours of access per month
Non profit groups may access dialup lines on a sliding fee scale from $5.00 to 
$35.00 a month
Group Memberships are available for a $5.00 per user donation
Dedicated lines are also available. E-mail kduncan@steam.net for more info.

Web Server Storage Space
PWAC maintains a public Hypertext server.  Individuals and groups may establish 
document archives on this server.
Individuals may rent personal web space in 1 meg increments at a monthly 
donation to PWAC of $2 per meg.
Non Profit groups may rent web space in 5 meg increments at a monthly cost of 
$5 per 5 meg block
FTP capability is required to maintain your hypertext documents 
You may use our dialup lines to FTP to your web directory
As always, there is no cost to PWAs on disability or organizations that are 
even poorer than WE are...
Email webmaster@www.steam.net

Finger Server/White Pages
PWAC maintains a Queer/AIDS activist Whois and Finger service.  Anyone may 
register themselves or their organization by 
completing the finger template (finger.tmp) located at ftp.steam.net /template
If you can't FTP you may request more info  via email to postmaster@steam.net

The following Services are in development and will be completed as soon as we 
find some unix-savvy volunteers!

Electronic Mailing/Fax lists for media & elected officials
Gopher Server
Pop3 Mail Server
UUCP & Mail feeds
a public access News Server with USENET and specialized AIDS/Queer Newsgroups
an IRC server
anythine else that people want to put up.

So if you can use any of these resources -- or if you know a PWA who wants 
access to the net.... email postmaster@steam.net

thanks,
