I've still got the troff sources for the UniForum Canada (nee /usr/group/cdn) newsletters ("README") I produced when I was the editor. These span July 1990 through February 1993. They were distributed to members in print form. There were some issues before my time, but I don't think I managed to even keep the printed copies of those. I suppose I could/should just wrap them in a tar and put it on my web server.... I'll have to sort out including the wrapper tmac file I used -- the primary macros were MM, but I adapted them for the newsletter with some additions and replacements. I though I had lost it, but it seems I did manage to keep everything, even including the SCCS files. -- Greg A. Woods Kelowna, BC +1 250 762-7675 RoboHack Planix, Inc.
