IPPE Now Accepting Submissions on Diskette

Thanks to an increase in the size of our volunteer staff, the
International Philosophical Preprint Exchange is now able to accept
submissions of working papers and discussion pieces on diskettes
(submissions are, of course, still accepted through our ftp server as
well--see below for details).
We are able to accept submissions on MS-DOS and Macintosh diskettes of
all sizes, in all popular wordprocessor formats. As always, copyright
remains with the author, and works remain fully publishable. Works
submitted to the IPPE are made available for reading and browsing to
philosophers worldwide via the Internet, free of charge to both
submitters and readers (see below for access instructions).
To speed the appearance of your submission on the IPPE, please adhere to
the following simple guidelines:
1. Please begin your paper with a few lines giving your name, etc., in
the following format:
Your Name : Your Institution : Your email address
The Title of Your Paper
2. In addition to the file containing your paper, please provide a short
abstract in a separate file.
3. If possible, please provide your paper in several different file
formats (your wordprocessor's format, Postscript, plain ASCII text,
etc.).

Subject: New List announcement (FLTEACH)
List Name: FLTEACH on LISTSERV@UBVM (LISTSERV@UBVM.CC.BUFFALO.EDU)
The Foreign Language Teaching Forum list was formed to serve as a
forum for communication among foreign language teachers at the high
school and college levels. Our aim is to improve communication
among the professionals involved in training student teachers for
certification in language teaching in New York State and beyond. Its
audience includes Methodologists, University Supervisors, Cooperating
Teachers in junior high and high school, Student Teachers, and anyone
involved in developing or implementing the NYS curriculum or engaged in
the certification process. Although our initial focus is on language
teaching in New York State, we foresee the possibility that this LIST
could develop a broader base.
Archives of FLTEACH and related files are stored in the FLTEACH FILELIST.
To receive a list of files send the command 'INDEX FLTEACH' (without the
' ') to LISTSERV@UBVM or LISTSERV@UBVM.CC.BUFFALO.EDU as the first
line in the body of a mail message (not the Subject: line).
To subscribe to FLTEACH, send the command 'SUB FLTEACH your name'
(without the ' ') to LISTSERV@UBVM or LISTSERV@UBVM.CC.BUFFALO.EDU via
a mail message (again, as the first line in the body of the mail, not
the Subject: line).
For example: SUB FLTEACH John Doe

Subject: TLG CD ROM exchange
TLG CD ROM version D has been available to TLG licensees for some time in
exchange for TLG CD ROM C. To date, only about 600 licensees have availed
themselves of the new disk. Anyone wishing to obtain the most recent disk
version should feel free to return the older disk to us--we usually manage
to mail out the replacement within 24 hours. There is, of course, no
charge to individuals and institutions whose licenses are current.
Reminder, however: use of TLG CD ROM D requires the use of upgraded
software. Before returning your C disk to us in exchange for a D version,
please contact your software source(s) to make sure that you have
appropriate software in hand.
The C disk contained approximately 42 million words of text; the D disk
contains roughly 57 million words. It also contains a number of new
indices which (with the proper software) may prove useful to TLG users.

that users of version 1.0 may want to upgrade to version 1.2
which was released Nov. 1993. Please direct e-mail queries to

Subject: PMC by WWW
Humanist's readers may be interested to know that _Postmodern Culture_
(at three and a half, one of the oldest peer-reviewed electronic journals)
is now available by World-Wide Web in a hypermedia format. If you do not
have a web client, you can obtain one by anonymous ftp from ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu;
if you haven't seen what the Web can do, you owe yourself a look. When
you've located a client, aim it at:
http://jefferson.village.virginia.edu/pmc/contents.all.html
and you will find all back issues of the journal as well as the January, 1994
issue, which contains the journal's first hypermedia publication, a popular
culture column on Krazy Kat by Elisabeth Crocker.
PMC also has a new gopher site at jefferson.village.virginia.edu. Listserv
distribution of a text-only version will continue as before (from
pmc-list@listserv.ncsu.edu), as will disk and fiche production. The
anonymous ftp site remains ftp.ncsu.edu, where you will find journal
articles in /pub/ncsu/pmc/pmc-list.
