Archives of the AI-related newsgroups listed below can now be found in appropriate subdirectories of ftp.cs.cmu.edu:/user/ai/pubs/news/ Each of these newsgroups is being automatically archived on a weekly basis. For example, the gzipped tar file 94_10_08.tgz in the comp.lang.lisp/ subdirectory contains all articles that appeared in the comp.lang.lisp newsgroup during the previous week. Links to these archives also exist in many of the topical directories of the CMU AI Repository (e.g., /user/ai/lang/lisp/news/ contains links to Lisp-related newsgroups). The archives for most of the newsgroups start with articles appearing on 23-JUL-94, which is when the newsgroup archiving software was first tested. Some newsgroups, however, have archives that go back further (sometimes with gaps) due to archives originally maintained elsewhere. For example, the comp.lang.lisp archive includes articles from January 1990 through February 1992 in addition to the more recent archives. The newsgroups being archived include: comp.ai comp.lang.lisp comp.ai.alife comp.lang.lisp.franz comp.ai.edu comp.lang.lisp.mcl comp.ai.fuzzy comp.lang.lisp.x comp.ai.genetic comp.lang.prolog comp.ai.jair.announce comp.lang.scheme comp.ai.jair.papers comp.lang.smalltalk comp.ai.nat-lang comp.object.logic comp.ai.neural-nets comp.org.lisp-users comp.ai.nlang-know-rep comp.robotics comp.ai.philosophy comp.speech comp.ai.shells comp.std.lisp comp.ai.vision comp.sys.ti.explorer comp.constraints comp.sys.xerox comp.lang.clos sci.lang comp.lang.dylan If there is sufficient demand, we will archive other newsgroups as well.
