These articles tend to be useful for both novice and experienced users, as they usually fall into one of these categories: 1. How-to articles explaining some of the basics and fine points of network usage, etiquette, standards, etc. 2. Introductory notes about one or more newsgroups, covering policies (if any) for submissions to that group, usage, etc. Common questions and answers pertinent to a newsgroup(s). 3. Indexes of archives, or pointers to archives for various groups. Periodic newsletters, calendars, pointers to publications. 4. Statistical information and reports about Usenet; tables of Usenet hosts, links, etc. 5. Miscellany, including small useful sources, "fun" lists, and so on. This is a list of the periodic postings known at this time; each posting is listed in an entry that includes who posts the article, which newsgroup(s) it appears in, what "Subject" line is used, and how often the article is posted. The list is sorted by the "Newsgroups" line. The character '*' is used as a wildcard, e.g. "v**INF1" matches "v01INF1", "v02INF1", etc. Corrections and additions (via MAIL) are most welcome. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 3/21/90 Jonathan Kamens of MIT's Project Athena has kindly set up an archive of periodic postings; the archive is constructed by a shell script which reads this article, using it as a guide as to which postings should be archived. What follows is a condensed excerpt of his article announcing this archive... This archive is on "pit-manager.mit.edu" (18.72.1.58), and is accessible via anonymous ftp in the directory "/pub/usenet". The structure of this directory is such that each subdirectory is a newsgroup name, and the files in the subdirectories are the periodic postings. The filenames are constructed by mapping the titles to filenames in a pretty simple way, e.g. /pub/usenet/news.announce.newusers/Answers_to_Frequently_Asked_Questions The archive is also accessible via mail archive server. The address of the server is mail-server@pit-manager.mit.edu. The names are the same, with the "/pub/" chopped off. To retrieve the file mentioned above, you would send mail to the mail-server with a subject or body of send usenet/news.announce.newusers/Answers_to_Frequently_Asked_Questions You can also do "send help", "send index", "send usenet/index", "send usenet/news.announce.newusers/index", etc. Comments, questions, suggestions, etc. can be sent to me at the address below, or at {root,jik,postmaster,daemon}@pit-manager.mit.edu. Feel free to mention this service in any informational postings you may maintain; I hope to keep it up and running for a while.
