GARY NUMAN MAILING LIST
-----------------------

Since the spring of 1991 I have been distributing a monthly electronic
newsletter called "Numanews" to interested parties. The purpose of the 
newsletter was to keep fans of Gary Numan on the net informed of 
releases, tours etc but it grew into a central point for discussion
of any subject concerning Gary and his music. The newsletter seemed necessary
due to the limited availability of some of his albums and the lack of
publicity in the USA.  With my having personal contact with Gary's parents
and membership in the UK-resident only Gary Numan Fan Club (run by his
mother) I have a prime source of information that I thought I should 
share. 

From now on Numanews will be operated as a moderated mailing list and
will be sent out weekly in digest form.  

To be added to the list e-mail numan-request@cs.uwp.edu

To contribute something, mail your message to :  numan@cs.uwp.edu

Mail sent to this address will be automatically forwarded to me for approval.  

If important information (new release, developments at NUMA etc) arises,
it will be sent out as a Numanewsflash bypassing the Digest and reaching 
you as quickly as possible.  

If you have changes to make regarding your address please email:

	numan-request@cs.uwp.edu

Digests and the issues distributed before today will be archived and
available via FTP at cs.uwp.edu.  

A description of suitable subjects for the mailing list is given below.

If you need to contact me personally use my personal email address
(dlangs@sunstroke.sdsu.edu) NOT the numan mailing list address.  


CHARFTER FOR NUMANEWS - the Gary Numan mailing list
---------------------------------------------------

This list is for the purpose of the acquisition and dissemination of info
about Gary Numan. Suitable material should have some connection with Gary or
his music. This includes info on new releases, concerts, reviews, sightings
of Numan collectibles, sale of or requests for Numan items, reports of radio
play, interviews, discussion of available releases, critiques of past releases,
Numan trivia, other Numan Fan organisations/publications, musical influences,
musical influencees, artists with some connection to Gary Numan (collaborators,
others on his NUMA label, past backing band members etc): basically anything
that can be seen to have relevance to the group.  Discussion of other 
80's synth artists should be left for other mailing lists/newsgroups if no
relation to Gary is an integral part of the contribution.

Each message will be vetted for appropriate content but my criteria are not
too strict.     

If you have any questions about the operation of the list contact Dave Datta
at numan-request@cs.uwp.edu

I hope this will be a success and be an improvement over how things have 
been done before.  

All fans and those with interest are welcome.

Special thanks and appreciation to Dave Datta for making this possible.
