The 6.033 Discuss Meeting
The 6.033 discuss meeting can be used by both students and staff to
post questions and answers about 6.033 and topics covered in 6.033. It
can also be used to post articles (or pointers to articles) of general
interest to people in 6.033. Additionally, since the meeting has been
around for several years, you can browse through some of the old
transactions to find interesting and relevant material.
You can use your browser to read transactions from the 6.033 discuss
meeting by using the discuss->www
gateway. However, you can not use this gateway to post messages to
the meeting.
In order to post messages to discuss, you need to run a discuss
client. For more information about running a discuss client, you can
read the
Discuss on Athena help pages. There is also a Macintosh discuss client
available.
The easiest way to run discuss is to get to an athena prompt and type:
athena% discuss
Then at the discuss prompt type the following:
discuss: am nemesis.mit.edu:/usr/spool/discuss/6.033
discuss: go 6.033
You can then type "?" for a list of possible commands. The official
discuss meeting information is as follows:
site: nemesis.mit.edu:/usr/spool/discuss/6.033
long name: 6.033 discussion
short name: 6.033
