I just hope the group remains as is and does not become an advertising
conduit for anybodyexcept Tivoli themselves.

Subject: NV-L home moving to TKG
The Kernel Group, Inc. (TKG) is proud to announce that we will begin
hosting the NV-L mailing list for Tivoli NetView starting Sunday,
March 5th. Besides hosting the mailing list, we will also provide a
web site devoted to the list, with searchable archives of NV-L and
other services.
TKG is a high-expertise consulting company that specializes in
system-management services and products. Our product line includes
the debugging tools ZeroFault and SCTrace, as well as the upcoming
Bare Metal Restore product that allows the complete restoration of
systems from ADSM/TSM backups. Our services focus on the deployment
and management of IBM, Tivoli, and TKG products, including SP,
Tivoli Enterprise Console, NetView, ADSM/TSM, HA/CMP and HA/GEO.
Please visit our web site at http://www.tkg.com for more
information, email us at mailto:info@tkg.com, or call us at
800-854-7381 or 512-433-3300.
Please continue to use the current NV-L list until Sunday, March
5th. The list subscriber databases will be synchronized on March
4th, so current subscribers need not subscribe to the new server.
You should not experience any interruption in service, but you
should be aware of the following differences between the current
LISTSERV list server and our Majordomo server:
1. Majordomo does not have options like DIGEST/NODIGEST,
MAIL/NOMAIL, CONCEAL etc. Instead, the following features
are implemented:
Since there is no DIGEST/NODIGEST option on Majordomo, there
will be two lists: nv-l@tkg.com and nv-l-digest@tkg.com.
Only digests are sent to the nv-l-digest list. Existing
digest subscribers will be automatically subscribed to
nv-l-digest.
There is no NOMAIL option, so you have to unsubscribe to
have the same effect.
Users can't see the other subscribers, so there is no need
for the CONCEAL option.
All message subjects sent to the mailing list will have
[NV-L] in them (instead of the SUBJ/NOSUBJ option). All
emails will have a footer which contains the URL for the
list's web site.
2. Majordomo does not have searching capabilities, so we will
provide a web-based search function, which can be reached at
http://www.tkg.com/search. Monthly archives very similar to
LISTSERV's archive format will still be available, using the
GET, INDEX commands, and more conveniently from
http://www.tkg.com/nv-l. All previous archives are
indexed.
