Subject: SHOGI-L is moving - please read on!

Dear SHOGI-L members,

The SHOGI-L host system ("technion" running VM/CMS), is about to be phased
out. SHOGI-L will be moved to host techunix.technion.ac.il on Friday 16
August 1996. The list name (SHOGI-L) will remain the same.

While the list name will not change, nor will its basic operations, some
change is expected in regard to command syntax, due to the fact that the
list server software used will change to Majordomo. Normally, this involves
very little change on your part. For your convenience, I have included
Majordomo's help file that contains all the commands you need. The list
archives will be moved to the new system as well and can be read via the
get command.

As of 16 August, the list server will be known under the equivalent names
majordomo <at> techunix <dot> technion <dot> ac <dot> il and listserv <at> techunix <dot> technion <dot> ac <dot> il.
These addresses are used to (un)subscribe, get files from the archive, etc.

The SHOGI-L list will be known as shogi-l <at> techunix <dot> technion <dot> ac <dot> il and it is
this address that postings should be sent to from 16 August onwards.

The list of subscribers will automatically be moved to the new system as
well, so there should not be any need for anybody to resubscribe to SHOGI-L.

If you have any questions or problems, please let me know.

I wish you an easy transition!

Pieter Stouten, co-owner SHOGI-L
