I've disagreed with Teri's methods of hosting events in the past, in
public and private, but on this particular issue, she gets my complete,
whole-hearted, and unqualified support: you *don't* send out full
information to anyone who's not willing to commit themselves to coming
by sending an e-mail RSVP.

As a side note, I've hosted several net.events, and never had any
problems, aside from fewer people than expected showing up.  This is
mostly due to the fact that my events tend to attract a small, specific
group of people.  Something to think about.

I think, although memory is faulty, that Teri posted that
she had sent out mail to those who had RSVP'd.  If not - 
then I think that would be a method of indicating that
mail had gone out to those one KNOWS is interested in
attending an event - and a signal to those who did not 
get the mail to send up hailing flags that they were
misplaced.

Another suggestion, since as we know not all sites can
establish communications with all other sites without a
LOT of contortions, is that there be an alternate e-mail
contact for an event.  I haven't hosted any get-together
since I got this account, but I'd post BOTH accounts so
anyone who couldn't get to one might be able to get through
to another.

I do agree with Aysa - I wouldn't expect Teri to be able to
read ANY of the 'net the week before the event since she'd
be too busy; and as an attendee I did not respond to anyone
that I saw requesting info since I have no way of knowing if
they had actually RSVP'd to Teri.  Doug - I didn't see your
post;  I did see one Saturday.  If I had seen any prior to
that, I would have forwarded them to Teri myself...I don't
recall seeing any, but I don't often get to read the group
before expiration of articles.  Apologies to anyone for
that...

Since I seem to have started this, let me say that the rest of you are
over-reacting.   As I said, I am glad to see Marvin make as much from this
as he can, and I have no problem -- correct that, there *is* no problem --
with his promoting on this newsgroup.   (Some people have gotten a myth
in their heads that USENET is somehow non-commercial, it is not.  The
#2 and #3 groups on usenet, misc.jobs.offered and misc.forsale, consist
of NOTHING but ads.)

All I said was that he should be honest about it.  Saying "a $7 value if
you compare it to an evening show" was slightly misleading.   Only slightly,
though, and I'm sorry that I ever commented on it if this is the reaction
that it's going to get.

Marvin, go charge what the market will bear.

I suggest that El Torito would be a perfect place for you to find
interesting women, I understand that they have a local high school
work-study program.

P.S. I apologize to all the high school women I've just offended by

IEEE Oakland/East Bay Communications Society

Subject:        SNMP and Management of Today's Complex Multi-Vendor Data
		Networks
Speaker:        Dr. Joseph Pang, Pacific Bell
Date:           Thursday, April 16, 1992
Time:           7:00 PM
Location:       Pacific Bell, 2600 Camino Ramon, San Ramon

 SNMP and Management of Today's Complex Multi-Vendor Data Networks

If computerization marked the business modernization of the 80's,
computer networking will mark the next wave of modernization in the
90's.  Today, data networks have already become a critical part of the
day-to-day operations for many businesses and institutions.  Thus, it
is most important to provide proper network management to protect and
exploit this critical asset.

At present, we still do not have a common understanding of what
network management is.  However, several points have become clear in
recent years: (i) modern network service cannot be provided adequately
without comprehensive network management, (ii) network management is a
multi-faceted problem which can be viewed from many different
perspectives, (iii) proprietary management tools are not adequate for
managing today's complex multi-vendor networks.

In this presentation, the motivation and the basic concepts of network
management will be discussed, followed by an account of the rivalry
between OSI and Internet network management.  The Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) will then be presented, including the
network model, the information model, and the protocol for exchanging
management information.  Finally, some practical issues on the
applications and implementations of SNMP will be discussed.

                              BIOGRAPHY

Joseph Pang received the B.A.Sc. and M.A.Sc. degrees from the
University of British Columbia in 1983 and 1985, respectively, and the
Ph.D. degree from Stanford University in January 1989.  Since then, he
has been with the Broadband Network Services (formerly Broadband
Network Research) district at Pacific Bell.  His current interests
include Broadband Networks and Services, Network Management and
Customer Network Management, and Advanced Network Applications.

SOLIDARITY DEMONSTRATIONS FOR ECUADORIAN INDIANS
**********************************************
PROTEST AT ECUADORIAN CONSULATES ON EARTH DAY
SUPPORT 500 YEARS OF INDIAN RESISTANCE

(San Francisco)  On April 22, Earth Day, a demonstration will be
held at the Ecuadorian consulate in San Francisco at 455 Market
Street, in solidarity with a march by Ecuadorian Indians.  On
April 11, over 2,000 Ecuadorian Amazon Indians began a 300 mile
march from their communities to Quito, the capital of Ecuador to
demand that the government recognize their traditional land
rights.

Throughout Ecuador's history, indigenous land rights have often
been ill-defined, or in many cases completely ignored by the
government of Ecuador to address legalization of their traditional
territories.  However, because the talks have proved futile the
Indians have decided to undertake this march.

The Organization of Indigenous Peoples of the Pastaza (OPIP), an
Indian confederation, is organizing over 148 communities from the
Pastaza Province.  They believe by joining together in what is one
of the largest efforts they have ever undertaken they will have
the political leverage necessary to force the government to
address their land rights.  The Indians' demands are twofold:

- The legal recognition of the traditional territories of the
Quichua, Shiwiar and Anchuar nations.
- An amendment to the first article of the constitution to
proclaim Ecuador as a multi-national, multi-cultural nation.

On April 8, says Antonio Vargas of OPIP, the military occupied a
biligual school, and has established road blocks in Pastaza to
intimidate the indigenous people who will march.  The urgency of
recognition of land title is in response to the encroachment of
oil companies that are now moving into the 5 million acre Central
Ecuadorian Amazon region of Pastaza.  In the past two decades, oil
exploration in the 12 million acres of the Northern Ecuadorian
Amazon has left serious ecological and social disasters.  Several
U.S.-based oil companies are involved, such as ARCO, Texaco and
Maxus.

Throughout North America solidarity marches will be held on Earth
Day to increase the march's profile, as well as to raise awareness
in the U.S. and Canada.

I saw a notice recently in the Bay Area Computer Currents
for 4/7-4/20, 1992:

     Ted Nelson, the outrageous and fast-talking
     hyper-generalist, goes ballistic with a show that has much
     of Silicon Valley holding its breath.  Entitled "Ted
     Nelson's World Enough: A Most Inspiring Autobiographical
     Lecture Series," the show will run for twelve hours --
     divided into three Saturday [Sunday?] evenings (April 12, 19
     and 26) at Palo Alto's Spangenberg Theater. [...] The show
     begins at 7PM each night and runs four hours, plus three
     intermissions.  Tickets range from $10-$50 per show.  For
     more details, call 415/331-4422."
     
I tried calling the number, but the only additional info on
the message in Ted Nelson's office is that you can get
tickets at BASS.

There's an accompanying photo of Nelson, wild-eyed, leaning
forward and pointing at the audience.  In the background
there's just a curtain and a large step ladder.   Echoes of
Mark Twain and Thornton Wilder?

The newsgroup ba.announce is for the posting of announcements that
would be of interest to the entire Bay Area Usenet Community.  The
intent is that every Usenet reader in the Bay Area should be able
to subscribe to ba.announce without being overwhelmed by volume.

Postings should be short; the ideal posting would be less than 50
lines.  Please remember to format your postings for 80-column
screens, as that is the most common screen size on the net.  Also,
please check your spelling and grammar.

Please include location information in the Subject: line!  Not counting
sites in other states and countries, the Bay Area Usenet distribution is at
least 6 hours' drive across, and longer if you take public transit.

Content is restricted to announcements only.  Discussions are not
appropriate material.  If you are announcing a meeting for an
organization that is not well-known, please feel free to include
a short statement of the organization's history and purpose as a
part of the announcement posting.  Please do not send us background
material as separate postings; it will be sent back to you.

Announcements of seminars should be posted to ba.seminars.

Some examples of appropriate postings:

      * An announcement of a meeting of a political organization.

      * Party announcements or other social get-togethers.

      * Conference schedule announcements, e.g. Interop or Usenix, if

Runners may be interested in the St. Andrew's Cinco-de-Milo Run,
a 5.1 mile run on May 2, 1992, starting at 9:00 am. The course
follows a loop starting near Ben Lomond (10 miles north of
Santa Cruz), then south on Hwy 9 with an interesting excursion
through Highland Park, then north on Glen Arbor, back to the
start.  The course is slightly rolling with some short steep hills.

Cost is $15, includes t-shirt, before April 18, 1992, or $6,
without t-shirt, on the day of the race.  The proceeds go to
outreach programs for the San Lorenzo Valley, including Valley
Churches United, etc.

Registration begins at 8 am. Race begins at 9 am.

There are awards for the top three finishers in each class.

There is a carbo-load dinner for $5 at 7 pm on Friday May 1
at the St. Andrew's Episcopal Church, at the corner of
Riverside and Glen Arbor in Ben Lomond.

Call (408) 336-5994 for an entry blank, or email your address to me
and I'll mail you one. Or, if this is enough information, then
just fill out the form below and mail it in!

ps. Expect a small race, with under 100 runners. I ran it two
years ago and placed second in the men's open class. No, I'm
not a great runner, there just wasn't much depth in the field:
the first place guy was from the Cabrillo track team and was
out of sight after a mile. They almost gave me the first place
award because the ringer got lost in the 'interesting' loop
through the park and didn't do the entire course. Bring your
compass. :)

pps. T-shirts were nice. Traffic on 9 wasn't a problem.
