Here's the question: should hosts in Dearborn be registered as

    host.dbrn.mi.us
or
    host.drbn.mi.us

I'm lead to believe that drbn is a semi-common city code, perhaps used
by the post office.  On the other hand, I don't think I've ever seen
anything but dbrn used on the net.  Any thoughts?

If I had the choice, I prefer dbrn myself -- maintain consistency with
the dbrn.merit.edu Merit node.  Of course, Dearborn is mostly Ford
anyway so you might as well call it ford.mi.us and have any sites in
Warren be gm.mi.us, etc.  :)  Seriously:

1.  I thought that guidelines were in place for the .us domain such
that a specific city code was what was supposed to be used.  

2.  How about putting the site on mi.org?

I'll second that (or third that, or whatever).  Someone may think it's

The following are for sale.  Moving out west and want to unload a bunch of
stuff like:

 - Full (commercial) size upright freezer, Good condition. Ten years old.

 - Washer and dryer pair, washer was stored in a garage and has some 
 erosion on the rim but everything works great. Three years old.  

 - Upright Stanley Piano, no stool, decent finish, last tuned about a year
 and a half ago.

 - Classic couch, long (at least 6 ft.) needs to be re-upholstered.  Has
 a great frame.  Beautiful detailing, on wood frame.  May be considered 
 an antique.


 I'm usually pretty busy and may not be able to read news as often as I'd

The folks at Simon Fraser University have managed to 
get themselves out of using MTS and onto other computing
systems (Unix and VMS) without an undue amount of grief.
I know that there's a lot of angst building up at the
U of Michigan about the same sort of transition, and in
the absence of strong central planning here's at least some
hint of what some other organization facing the same
move has gone through.

Er, actually, it still does.  The only exception is DRBN003, which doesn't

Please post if you find out anything about this.

Is it just me, or does the Freenet organization go out of its way to
avoid the Michigan Unix community?  We don't bite, do we?

Actually, there was a study in '90 (or '91) that concluded that computers
in the workplace *hadn't* increased the productivity of workers, but *had*
improved the quality of the work.  Maybe someone can remember the authors
of the study.  Of course, I prefer the argument that productivity probably
has increased for computer literates, but has remained the same due to
the drag of trying to educate non-literates and bring them into the
computer age.  If this is the case, there will eventually be a very
dramatic payoff to computerized workplaces.  Stay tuned.

I don't see anything particularly wrong with it... after all, if someone
wants a short, easy-to-use name, they can go with host.mi.org!  :-)

If I had to choose between abbreviations, I'd go with DRBN, since that's
what our Big Blue iron used to go by.

Thank goodness for .mi.org, I'm moving soon, (to Dearborn :-), and don't
have to change my addressing because I'm not in the mi.us hierarchy.
