http://cs.umaine.edu/~chaw/cos451/ We will use the class Web site for posting assignments, readings, notes, and other material. Please
monitor it.
Class Newsgroup:
We will use the local USENET newsgroup umaine.cos451 on the NNTP
(net news) server news.cs.umaine.edu for electronic discussions. The Web interface at
http://cs.umaine.edu/~chaw/news/ provides convenient access. Some further, more general,
information on USENET appears at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usenet. The newsgroup is the
primary forum for electronic announcements and discussions, so please monitor it regularly, and post
messages there as well. Unless there is a reason for not sharing a question or comment, please use thenewsgroup, not email, for questions and comments related to this course.
Class mailing list:
Please make sure you are on the class mailing list. A sign-up sheet is circulated at the
first class meeting. If you miss it, please contact me to get on the list. We will use this mailing list only
for urgent messages because all other messages will go on the class newsgroup. I anticipate fewer than
a dozen messages on this list over the semester.
