Hi everyone,
Welcome to a new mailing list: luitporia !
This mailing list is intended for people
directly/indirectly/some way related to Assam/North-East In-
dia. However, anyone else interested is welcome to join this
list. The idea of this list is to provide a global mailing
list accessible to EVERYONE from ANYWHERE (almost anywhere)
by sending message to just one address and to provide an in-
formal forum to discuss/pass news about Assam, Assamese com-
munity in North America and Europe (yes at present we have
one person getting this mail message across the Atlantic in
UK, see list below) and the like. In future, I hope I'll
(we'll) find out about someone directly in India who I can
add to the list (At present, there are several sites in In-
dia like TIFR, NCST, IITs which can be accessed by e-mail
from this side of the world).
I have been meaning to set up such a mailing list for
quite sometime. Now that I have my own workstation "aazoli"
(couldn't think of a better name!) and that there are a fair
number (22 as of now) of people with e-mail access, I decid-
ed it's time to do so.
The Internet e-mail address for this mailing list is:
luitporia@aazoli.cstp.umkc.edu
and should work from everywhere. People who are on BITNET
will hopefully figure it out how to send mail to this list
(using jnet or some other interface).
The initial list has been set up with the names of the
people with whom I have been communicating (ir)regularly by
e-mail and the names provided to me by Jugal Kalita of
Colorado Springs, Colorado. (Thanks, Jugal). I like to apo-
logize to you for adding your name to the list without ob-
taining your permission. (Anyone who would NOT like to be on
this mailing list should send me a message so that I can
delete his/her name). If you know of anyone else who might
be interested in being added to this mailing list, please
let him/her contact me at my address given below.
I would appreciate if you could acknowledge receipt of
this mail by sending me a message at my e-mail address list-
ed below (Please send me correction on name/e-mail address).
Finally, please excuse me if you got multiple copies of this
message; bear with me as I set up this initial list.
Thank you.
Happy e-mailing :-)
