- RELEASE NOTES
-
- !! UUSER: is broken in this release
-
- !! GETTY SERIAL PORT LOCKING HAS CHANGED YET AGAIN, Please refer to
- UUMAN:LockSerial and UUMAN:Getty ... you MUST use the LockSerial
- program to run a terminal program to override Getty.
-
- DNEWS is much improved, but still needs a lot of work.
-
- STANDARD README
-
- * Seasoned AmigaUUCP users should refer to VERSION.DOC for a list of
- fixes and additions.
-
- * After you glance at the rest of this document refer to the
- file "QuickSetup.DOC". Seasoned UUCP users may want to
- glance at QuickSetup.DOC but spend the majority of their
- time on SlowSetup.DOC
-
- * UUCP should be tested via QuickSetup.DOC by inexperienced
- UUCP users before attempting a real installation.
-
- * The first floppy is bootable (note: distributions on networks
- do not include commodore 1.3 system executables). The boot
- sequence sets up the appropriate directories and assigns and
- runs two programs (Getty and DCron) in the background before
- giving you a standard CLI prompt.
-
- The second floppy contains additional executables, manual pages,
- and the source code.
-
- * AVAILABILITY OF CNEWS. UUCP 1.08D and beyond comes with a
- relatively limited news forwarder and batcher. It should work for
- most peoples purposes and does have both upstream and downstream
- batching/collection capability. If, however, you want to run the
- more sophisticated CNEWS system you can obtain the CNEWS stuff
- from:
-
- Larry Rosenman
- 900 Lake Isle Circle
- Irving, TX 75060-7709
-
- email: ler@lerami.lonestar.org
- uunet.uu.net!utacfd.arl.utexas.edu!egsner!lerami!ler
-
- CNEWS TAKES UP 2 FLOPPIES, when requesting CNEWS from Larry, please
- include $10 for his trouble (he will supply the disks). This is
- similar to my own policy. Note that the software itself is free
- and can be found on BBSs, BIX, and elsewhere, but requesting it
- from us directly is really a service that we are not set up to
- handle efficiently, and interrupts other work, thus the $10.
-
- The CNEWS distribution, like the AmigaUUCP distribution, is too
- large to send via email.
-
- The keeper of the source for the CNEWS distribution is Frank J.
- Edwards,
-
- uunet.uu.net!pdn!palan!ckctpa!crash
-
- * NEW USENET ALT GROUPS ARE NOW UP
-
- alt.sys.amiga.uucp
- alt.sys.amiga.uucp.patches
-
- NOTE! The alt groups are linked in with the mailing list. If
- you receive the alt groups, do NOT ask to be put on the mailing
- list!
-
- * AMIGA-UUCP MAILING LIST. If you wish to take part in discussions
- and receive upgrades via email, you can get on the amiga-uucp
- mailing list. There are TWO lists. Email your requests to:
-
- amiga-uucp-request@uunet.uu.net
- amiga-uucp-patches-request@uunet.uu.net
-
- email to both request aliases if you wish to be on both mailing
- lists.
-
- The first group is for general discussion, the second group is for
- sending patches, upgrades, large source and binary files, etc...
- That is, sending mail to amiga-uucp hits both lists while sending
- mail to amiga-uucp-patches hits only the patches list. To send
- mail to a mailing list (i.e. so that EVERYONE gets the mail):
-
- amiga-uucp@uunet.uu.net
- amiga-uucp-patches@uunet.uu.net

- ** Credits **
-
- P.S. I try not to imply favoritism and have attempted to put
- together exactly who did what in this release. When possible,
- history is given... and, of course, I know what I have done
- much better than I know what other people have done so don't
- take the below list as a 'who did the most' list... everyone
- did a lot.

-
- VERSION
-
- This code was originally based on months of work on William P.
- Loftus's Amiga UUCP 0.40 release with news code from his 0.60
- release. The version number is shown at the top of this file.
- x.xxD refers to versions originated by myself and have nothing to
- do with WPL's version numbering.
-
- Version numbers are of the form: m.rrD.ss Where m.rrD is
- common to all executables and .ss is the individual revision number
- associated with a particular executable and embedded in it. The
- UIDENT command run on an executable will reveal its full version
- id.
-
- COPYRIGHTS
-
- This distribution is freely redistributable as long as all files and
- directory structures, except the 'system' directory which contains
- commodore-amiga executables, remain intact. Redistributions
- which include enhanced or additional modules while keeping the same
- basic structure are allowed but discouraged (I would much rather you
- sent the mods / additions to me and I will pass them on as is
- appropriate, or send them to the amiga-uucp-patches alias).
- Redistributions may charge fees at-cost (i.e. non- commercial and
- non-profit). These terms may change at any time and all holders of
- copyrights on code in the distribution may set their own terms
- independant of any terms set in this document for related executable
- modules and source in this distribution.
-
- Copyrights contained in the source effect the specific source files
- in question and the derived executable independant of other source
- files and derived executables. For example, the GNU copyright does
- not effect the 'sendmail' source and binaries which is entirely my
- own code.
-
- source containing the GNU copyright notice and derived executables are
- subject to the GNU Emacs General Public License. This license is
- available in the file man/GNU-LICENSE.
