======
Group charter, rules, and guidelines
======

What belongs on the list:

Discussions of anything having to do with using Internet services on Apple
Computers. Discussions of creating or providing Internet services should be
on APPLE-INTERNET-PROVIDERS. Tools, software, techniques, hints and anything
else having to do with Apple and Internet are welcome.
...

This list is designed as a place where people who are using Apple computers
as clients to the Internet and Internet services can discuss things.

We at Apple want to encourage the use of Apple computers on the Internet
(for obvious reasons) but otherwise, we plan to keep our hands off the
list to the greatest extent possible.

There is a second list available for Apple Computer-based Internet
service providers: APPLE-INTERNET-PROVIDERS@abs.apple.com.
