Attached is a standard welcome message which should answer most of your questions. I have not placed you on the SW-COMP email list as the message states because you did not specifically request it, but I will be happy to do so if you send a request via email to SW-COMP-REQUEST@WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL. Ask to be added to the SW-COMP email list in your request. You may also use this address to ask any other questions. Rick Conn ---- Welcome Message Follows ---- Welcome to the SW-COMP Electronic Mailing List! =============================================== The main objective of SW-COMP is to provide a forum for discussions about software components and their design, implementation, and utilization. Sponsored as a part of the Ada Software Repository activity at White Sands Missile Range, discussions on SW-COMP are not by any means limited to software components written in Ada. SW-COMP is for software components written in any language, including Ada, Objective C, C++, and any other language of interest to the readers of this list. This list is oriented to professional component developers, people who are training to become such a professional, and people who have an interest in developing their own components. This list is open to any person interested in the topics of software components and software reuse through components. As a "public service," this list has a secondary function of providing a forum for reviewing and discussing the software components developed by vendors, government contractors, and other sources. Components found in commercial software products as well as public sources, such as the Ada Software and UNIX-C Repositories on SIMTEL20 and the Data and Analysis Center for Software at Rome Air Development Center, may be topics for discussion on this list. The people who have developed software components which are criticized on this list will be given the opportunity to discuss this criticism and seek ideas on how the components may be improved. This list is run as a digest. People on the list can address their messages to: SW-COMP@WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL These messages will be automatically collected and released at least once a day (except when the list administrator is not available) as a digest, where the subjects of the messages are presented at the beginning of the digest message. Messages sent to SW-COMP which are not of general interest to the readers, such as administrative messages or messages in conflict with DDN policy, will be filtered out (with an appropriate explanation sent to the sender if possible). Requests for new subscriptions, list deletions, and other administrative matters should be addressed to: SW-COMP-REQUEST@WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL The directory PD2: is an archive of all messages transmitted on this list. The file SW-COMP-ARCHIV.TXT contains recent messages; files named yymm.1-TXT-Z contain older messages by year and month in a compressed (UNIX) form.
