Folks,

  I had promised to get a copy of the ACCESS.bus specifications posted as soon
as they were available. Well, the ACCESS.bus Industry Group met last week and
we finally have the approved specifications available on line. You can get a
copy by using anonymous ftp on:

gatekeeper   16.1.0.2	gatekeeper:pub/DEC/TriAdd/A.bus_spec_sec_0_v2_0.ps
						  A.bus_spec_sec_0_v2_0.ps.Z
						  A.bus_spec_sec_1_v2_0.ps
						  A.bus_spec_sec_1_v2_0.ps.Z

						  A.bus_spec_sec_4_v2_0.ps
						  A.bus_spec_sec_4_v2_0.ps.Z
						  A.bus_spec_sec_5_v2_0.ps
						  A.bus_spec_sec_5_v2_0.ps.Z


  For those of you who may not be familiar with ACCESS.bus, it's a serial bus
for relatively low speed devices. Some of it's relevant features are:

		* Support for up to 14 devices at a time.

		* 8 meters of electrical cable length.

		* Based on the Phillips/Signetics I2C (I Squared C) bus. The
		  I2C microprosseor is only about $2.00 in the US.

		* Easily applicable to keyboards, mice (pointers), bar code
		  readers, hand held scanners, and so on.


I hope that this gets you all started. More information can be obtained by
seding mail to 	triadd@decwrl.dec.com  with your requests.

				Thanx,
				  AJ

A compressed tar file of Umoria 5.5 is now available for anonymous FTP
from kukulcan.berkeley.edu, in the directory /pub/wilson/incoming.
Patches from 5.4 to 5.5 are also available.  Get the file README.55 for
directions.

The source should soon appear in the official archives, and will also be
posted to comp.sources.games.

Players of previous versions of 5.x will only notice one significant
change.  The maximum damage enchantment of a weapon is now equal to the
weapon's maximum damage, rather than a fixed +10.  (As before, there is
a very slight chance that you can enchant a weapon beyond this level.)
Thus daggers will no longer be the best weapons for mid-level
characters.

Please send any bug reports to me.

Archive-name: auto/comp.compilers/Eli-compiler-construction-system-version-3-3-1

Version 3.3.1 of the Eli compiler construction system is now available
either on magnetic tape or via anonymous ftp (ftp.cs.colorado.edu,
128.138.243.151, pub/cs/distribs/eli).  Complete system documentation is
also available in two formats: Tex dvi format and PostScript.  This
release has been tested on the following machine/os combinations (reported
by "uname"):

   Sun3: SunOS Release 4.1 Version 1
   Sun4: SunOS Release 4.1.2 Version 2
   DECstation: ULTRIX Release 4.2 Version 0
   HP 9000/340: HP-UX Release B.08.00 Version B
   IBM RS 6000: AIX Release 1 Version 3

Eli integrates off-the-shelf tools and libraries with specialized language
processors to generate complete compilers quickly and reliably.  It
simplifies the development of new special-purpose languages,
implementation of existing languages on new hardware and extension of the
constructs and features of existing languages.  A paper describing the
system appears in the February, 1992 issue of "Communications of the ACM"
(pages 121-131).

Version 3.3.1 provides enhanced facilities for modularity in attribute
grammars: symbol computation, inheritance and rule attributes.  Rules need
be specified only if they introduce attribute computations.  (This
dramatically reduces specification size.) Version 3.3.1 also includes a
new property definition language that allows users to create additional
definition table access operations.

I have changed employers.  I now work for Qualcomm, Inc.  Qualcomm and I
will continue to develop Eudora, and continue to make it available for free.
In fact, Eudora development will be accellerated.

My new address is "sdorner@qualcomm.com"; the old address will still work,
but please use the new one instead.

For the time being, Eudora will still be available from ftp.cso.uiuc.edu,
though that may change in the future.

I have just put a new beta test release of Eudora on ftp.cso.uiuc.edu,
mac/eudora/beta subdirectory.  The new version is 1.3b46.

CHANGES FROM 1.2.2

Besides fixing some bugs in 1.2.2, version 1.3 adds a few features:

    1. You may now edit the subjects of incoming messages.
    2. System 7 aliases are permitted for mailbox files (only; no
       aliases for .toc files, just the mailbox files themselves).
    3. TOC rebuilds now salvage as much of the old toc as possible
    4. Support for "uupc", UUCP for the Macintosh.
    5. Support for AppleLink enclosures (thanks to Harry Culbert of
       Apple, who donated this code).
    6. Support for "plug-ins" (don't get too excited)
    7. Reply all preference
    8. Include self preference
    9. Open In preference
   10. Shift-Reply now quotes selected portion
   11. Added some special characters for use in navigation strings
    
I recommend use of the beta version if:

    1. You are having trouble with version 1.2.2.
    2. You have the "Leave Mail On Server" switch turned on.
    3. You can't live without the new features.
    4. Disk space is very tight.
    5. You sometimes receive attachments from AppleLink

Please read the README file in the mac/eudora/beta subdirectory
for further details.

Archive-name: auto/rec.ham-radio/morse-code-practice-program-for-UNIX


	I've written a program to help people with UNIX boxes learn morse code.
It seems to be pretty well debugged and working nicely. I wrote it for a SPARC;
Scott Seligman at Stanford added routines to support an HP workstation and
generic X11. It should be possible to support other sorts of devices fairly
easily. (All you have to change is one routine, and you've got 3 examples
to start from.)

	It has a rather ridiculous number of options and features. It can
be used to play code, print code, or generate code. It can just let you
look and listen or can test you, either synchronously or asynchronously.
It can speed up or slow down depending on how you're keeping up. It can
ask you letters that you're having trouble with more often. Etc, etc.

	Anyway, if you are interested, it is available as "morse.shar" on
hanauma.stanford.edu's anon ftp server. (For those of you without name
servers, that's 36.51.0.16... but you really should get a name server!)

	Feel free to redistribute it. If you make any improvements I'd
like to hear back from you. Please abide by the copyright notices. And
have fun!

PS:	Keep in mind that since I am giving away the code for free,
	I am under no obligation to answer uninteresting questions!!!!!

  You read it correctly, I have finished a beta version for LWP.
To get it ftp to lennon.itn.med.umich.edu and login anonymous.  It's
in the /gopher/ subdirectory.
  Use it at your own risk since it is beta, but those of you who really
want it, can test it out and let me know what you think.  It is basically
the Unix version, but spiced up a little ( although not quite as capable
yet ).
  Anyway, let me know what you think...

        EXCITING NEWS!  There is now a project which will motivate
students to solve open-ended math word problems and use modems to
write their solutions.  MATHMAGIC is a project which accomplishes
this as well as bring students from around the world together in a
collaborative effort.
        Working from each individual school (site), students team
with groups from other sites to solve problems which have been
posted by MATHMAGIC.  These problems are discussed and solved
through communications between teams.  After working the problems,
MATHMAGIC teams submit one solution format which requires that
they state the problem, discuss the various strategies, and
explain the solution.
        Once solution formats are received, evaluators examine the
final submission.  Teams are not ranked, but achievement is
recognized.  The results are posted on the MATHMAGIC board and in
a newsletter published by MATHMAGIC headquarters on a six-week
basis.
        This project provides an answer to the common problems
math teachers around the world encounter.  It provides the
motivation for students to write and solve word problems in math.
In addition,  students develop needed skills in the use of a
computer and modem while expanding their world through
communication with other students.

A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries.


        RFC 1361:

        Title:      Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP)
        Author:     D. Mills
        Mailbox:    mills@udel.edu
        Pages:      10
        Characters: 23,812
        Update/Obsoletes:  none


This memorandum describes the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP),
which is an adaptation of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) used to
synchronize computer clocks in the Internet. SNTP can be used when the
ultimate performance of the full NTP implementation described in
RFC-1305 is not needed or justified. It involves no change to the
current or previous NTP specification versions or known
implementations, but rather a clarification of certain design features
of NTP which allow operation in a simple, stateless RPC mode with
accuracy and reliability expectations similar to the UDP/TIME protocol
described in RFC-868.

This memorandum does not obsolete or update any RFC. A working
knowledge of RFC-1305 is not required for an implementation of SNTP.

This memo provides information for the Internet community.  It does
not specify an Internet standard.  Distribution of this memo is
unlimited.

This announcement is sent to the IETF list and the RFC-DIST list.
Requests to be added to or deleted from the IETF distribution list
should be sent to IETF-REQUEST@NRI.RESTON.VA.US.  Requests to be added
to or deleted from the RFC-DIST distribution list should be sent to
RFC-REQUEST@NIC.DDN.MIL.

RFCs can be obtained via FTP from FTP.NISC.SRI.COM, NIS.NSF.NET,
NISC.JVNC.NET, VENERA.ISI.EDU, WUARCHIVE.WUSTL.EDU, SRC.DOC.IC.AC.UK,

Requests for special distribution should be addressed to either the
author of the RFC in question, or to NIC@NIC.DDN.MIL.  Unless
specifically noted otherwise on the RFC itself, all RFCs are for
unlimited distribution.
