* THE SIMTEL ARCHIVES
  ===================

  From: dov@menora.weizmann.ac.il (Dov Grobgeld)

  The Simtel archives is a US government sponsered public domain archive
  which holds several hundred megabytes of various public domain stuff.
  The archive contents is most easily retrieved from the mirror of the
  archives by anonymous ftp to wuarchive.wustl.edu. The MSDOS
  directories are found in /mirrors2/msdos. Further information about
  the archive and how to retrieve files from it is found in the
  directory /mirrors2/msdos/starter.

  The following are Jewish-related files at archives, that I have found:

* Bibliographies

  From: fingerhu@ircam.fr (Michel Fingerhut)
  Organization: IRCAM, Paris (France)

  Bibliographical lists I put together recently and have a common
  thread: the first two are of orthodox scholars whose work
  conciliates tradition, modern science and philosophy: Cassuto,
  with his luminous commentary of the Pentateuch (I *don't* mean
  here what's known as "the Cassuto" but was really written by
  Hartum), together with other writings and interpretations of
  older Canaanite literature, and Y. Leibowitz, on science
  (genetics), society, politics, judaism (Maimonides) and almost
  everything else.

  The third one, N. Leibowitz (sister of Y. Leibowitz) is a
  wonderful *teacher* and has been doing commentaries of the
  Pentateuch for over 50 years.


* GNU Emacs Calendar/diary

  Send a message to:
  Edward M.Reingold reingold@emr.cs.uiuc.edu
            University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

  Version 4.01 is now available; the main changes are a few minor
  corrections (for example, the calculation of the date of Yom
  Ha'Atzmaut and Selichot) and a considerable speed-up for many
  commands.

  Files can be obtained by anonymous ftp from emr.cs.uiuc.edu in
  directory pub/emacs/calendar or by email by sending a message
  to me with the subject line "send-emacs-cal" (no quotes).

  A HARD COPY of a paper describing the calendrical calculations
  (including the intricacies of the Hebrew calendar) can be
  obtained by sending a messag with the subject line
  "send-paper-cal" (no quotes) AND INCLUDING YOUR MAILING ADDRESS
  (SNAIL) IN THE BODY OF THE MESSAGE.

* Library of Congress Subject Headings in Jewish Studies)

  Send a message to:
  Yossi (Joseph) Galron   <TS4132@OHSTMVSA.BITNET>

  I am pleased to announce the publication of the second, enlarged
  and updated edition of the Library of Congress Subject Headings in
  Jewish Studies. Those requiring further information should contact
  me at the address

  TS4132@OHSTMVSA.BITNET Tel. 1-(614)231-9546 Fax. 1-(614)231-1862

  Surprisingly, I found myself in the first directory as owner of
  the Library of Congress subject Headings in Jewish Studies.
  This list of Subject headings is a compilation of Subject
  headings used by The Library of Congress and is available (in
  the meantime) only in hard copy (I have it also on my PC as
  WordPerfect files).

* HaMaayan

  Moderator: Rav Shlomo Katz
             Organization: Grebyn Corporation
  Contact:   Alan Broder -  ajb@digex.com  (uunet!digex.com!ajb)

  Alternately, send your comments care of yehuda@gwuvm.bitnet

  HaMaayan is published weekly for the edification and enjoyment of the
  reader who is lacking the time or ability to study the weekly Parasha
  on his own. HaMaayan's goal is to acquaint the reader with the
  broadest spectrum of traditional Torah commentary, from the
  "rationalism" of Rambam (Maimonides) and Abarbanel to the "mysticism"
  of Alshich and the Chassidic Masters.

  While the editors hope these brief "snippets" will engender further
  discussion of Torah topics ("L'Hagdil Torah U'L'Ha'adirah"), they
  unfortunately lack the time to respond to lengthy questions.


* L'Chaim archive

  Moderator: Harold A. Miller  hal@shark.mel.dit.csiro.au

  Due to the generosity of Rabbi Lazer Danziger, I am now
  building an archive of the L'Chaim issues.  I don't have too
  many yet, although R' Danziger has assured me he will forward
  what back issues he can.  If anyone has others I'm missing,
  please email me.

  The archive is on shark.mel.dit.csiro.au, IP address
  144.110.16.11, in pub/lchaim.  The files are compressed.
  Login is "anonymous", password is your email address
  (user@host.domain, presumably).  I *may* install an
  email<-->ftp gateway in the future, but don't count
  on it.

* Rabbi Yaacov Haber

  Moderator: hal@shark.mel.dit.csiro.au
  I have added a third Jewish archive to shark.mel.dit.csiro.au.
  It's in

  pub/drosha

  and contains Rabbi Yaacov Haber's past and present articles.

  Problems, questions, etc., to me.
