  • USSR accessibility

    Dear Biomch-L readers,

    Further to my postings in March and April on the EARN-USSR link through IREX
    of Princeton, NY/USA, in which access was anticipated as of early May, I was
    highly interested to read the following article:

    "International Electronic Mail gains significance in the Soviet Union and
    Eastern Europe" by Joel E. Snyder , A. Thomasz Jarmoszko,
    and Seymour E. Goodman, IEEE Computer, March 1991, pp. 81-84.

    The paper provides a well-written survey of technical and economical/political
    developments. Yesterday, the primary author wrote me that the difficulty of
    setting up international lines make it likely that the USSR-EARN link will not
    activated before mid-summer 1991. Also, he kindly sent me a UUCP-map for the
    USSR and the Baltic (e.g., Riga in Latvia) with 125 nodes. Interested readers
    are welcome to ask me for a copy.

    With kind regards,

    Herman J. Woltring, Eindhoven/NL
