[9fans] attention - new list address

[Scott Schwartz]

Friends, the address for this mailing list is going to
be changing.  Thanks to Russ, we now have 9fans at 9fans.net
set up, and current subscriptions migrated.  Please give
it a try, and bear with us if there are any problems.
Thanks also to the psu computer science department
for hosting us these many years.

Everyone who was on 9fans@cse.psu.edu is on 9fans@9fans.net.
There's no need to resubscribe.

They're two separate lists at the moment,
but within a matter of days I expect that
9fans@cse.psu.edu will either stop working
or forward to 9fans@9fans.net.

Either way, it would be best to get in the
habit of mailing 9fans@9fans.net or update
address book entries.

Another question: will groups.google.com still have the old 9fans?

comp.os.plan9, and the google groups view of it, was fed by a mail->usenet
gateway.  As long as the gateway (maintained at bath.ac.uk) is happy with
the new sender it should be fine, but probably not.  Someone should check
into that.

Moderator's Note:
Providing I've managed to correctly configure this:

(1) The mail->usenet gateway at Bath should now be set up to accept
    articles from either 9fans@cse.psu.edu or 9fans@9fans.net.

(2) News articles injected here should also be emailed to
    9fans@9fans.net.
