With any luck, info-ada is again alive and well.  It now works like this:

mail list address - 		info-ada@ajpo.sei.cmu.edu
administrative address -	info-ada-request@ajpo.sei.cmu.edu

archives are in the directory /usr/infoada/archive on ajpo.sei.cmu.edu.
				      ^^
			    note the lack of a hyphen

If you're on the arpanet / milnet / ddn, whatever, I believe that anonymous
FTP works.

Mail is being routed through simtel20.arpa, courtesy of Frank Wancho, while
we await an upgrade to the hardware at SEI (for those of you who are
interested, the AJPO machine is toward the end of the line on the arpanet,
and new hardware should bring it closer to the Packet Switch Node, thus
alleviating, hopefully the timeout problems that make it very slow to use).

A number of people have helped establish other internal redistribution
points, particularly NADC and MITRE (well, not quite yet for DC), and have
reduced the number of copies being mailed cross country.  I'm still working
on finding a BITNET site that can manage a list server with some 35
addresses, so I can reduce the total arpanet traffic as well (offers are
hereby solicited).

Please take note of the fact that INFO-ADA is bidirectionally gatewayed with
the USENET news group comp.lang.ada, so if your machine gets that, you are
encouraged to read it with that mechanism rather than as a mailing list (if
your mailing address reads user@ajpo.sei.cmu.edu, you are quite STRONGLY
encouraged - since you won't get this message otherwise).

As always, in the event of an emergency (!), send your cards, letters, phone
calls, etc.  to me at the various addresses / numbers below.
