*sigh*


People, please stop flaming me for test messages.  I have spent the
last hour responding to wild flaming, and I don't have time to respond
to more.  Please note the following:

* I am not forging the postings, and the moderator is not going to
  be "pissed" -- I am the moderator.

* I have been testing a potentially nac specific problem with
  articles propagation, which is why the tests were in nac.


The problem turned out to be that our site (C-News), was sending
compressed batches to uunet (INN), without the compcun header.  INN
requires the compcun header.  Lacking said header, the packets were
silently dropped.  This is why nac has been silent for three months.

News admins take note.  If you are a C-News site, exchanging news with
a B or INN site, be sure to use the compcun header.


Many thanks to Kent Landfield and David Lawrence for helping to track
this down.

                 Internetworking:  Research and Experience


            Special Issue on Dynamic Internetwork Architectures


``Mobile'' or ``roaming''  hosts are network  participants that can  rapidly
move between  networks,  in  some circumstances  while  maintaining  network
connections and  sessions.   For  example,  portable computers  and  digital
cellular radio technology  can be  combined to  create network  participants
that can be carried throughout a building or a campus.  Future  technologies
may support  mobile  networks;  imagine  routing  packets to  a  LAN  on  an
airplane switching from cell to cell while in flight.  Because communication
protocols  assume  that  network  participants  are  relatively  stationary,
tracking mobile  hosts and  networks can  be a  difficult problem.    Mobile
hosts must announce new connections  to other network participants and  must
learn about local resources on new networks.  Dynamic internet architectures
must scale to  accommodate the  potential explosion  in mobile  participants
as technology  becomes more  widely available.    Applications must  operate
robustly in spite of temporary network failures while reconfiguration  takes
place.   The  purpose  of this  special  issue is  to  focus on  issues  and
experiences with dynamic internetwork architectures, such as:



  o Addressing schemes for mobile hosts

  o Routing in dynamic internet architectures

  o Resource discovery and utilization

  o Robust operation in dynamic internets


Papers submitted for this  special issue of  Internetworking:  Research  and
Experience should meet  the journal's normal  requirements for  publication.
Original papers,  not published  elsewhere or  not simultaneously  submitted
for publication elsewhere,  will be considered.   The  manuscript should  be

affiliation(s) and  address(es).    The body  of  the manuscript  should  be

should be provided for indexing.   Four copies  of the manuscript should  be

                 Internetworking:  Research and Experience


        Special Issue on Networking Support for Remote Conferencing


Real-time  interactions  with  colleagues  through  network   communications
are rapidly  becoming  an  important  means  of  communications  as  network
technologies become  better  able to  support  such applications.     Recent
experiments with remote conferencing, such as the multicast of presentations
from the  July,   1992  meeting  of  the IETF  across  the  Internet,   have
demonstrated the viability of the technology and have pointed out new  areas
of investigation.   Remote conferencing puts  special demands on  networking
hardware and protocols:   data must  be generated,  delivered and  presented
at the  destination in  a timely  fashion.   Remote  conferencing  protocols
may prefer  to discard  out of  order or  late data  rather than  delay  the
presentation at the destination.   Multi-way  conferences may use  multicast
algorithms to minimize  the volume of  transmitted data.   Data  compression
techniques may be used to  reduce the volume of data.   The purpose of  this
special issue is  to focus  on issues and  experiences with  internetworking
support for remote conferencing, such as:



  o Multicast protocols for remote conferencing

  o Multi-media data transmission protocols

  o Data compression techniques for video and audio data on internetworks

  o Service requirements for remote conferencing data delivery

  o Experiences with remote conferencing systems


Papers submitted for this  special issue of  Internetworking:  Research  and
Experience should meet  the journal's normal  requirements for  publication.
