AVSIM News Update
Tom Allensworth wrote:
If you have not been to AVSIM lately, we are pleased to announce a couple of new features that we think may be of interest to you. EMAIL LIST SERVER: A couple of weeks ago we brought online the AVSIM List Server System. Years ago AVSIM ran a list server. We shut it down because it was both buggy and difficult to administrate. We are happy to announce that we have brought a new system online that is both powerful and easy to use for both you and the administrators. What is a List Server? Simple! It is a powerful email system that allows users to subscribe to and receive email from other members on any topic. As an example, if you wished to receive daily updates via email containing the previous 24 hours of uploads to the AVSIM Library, you can. We have set up a number of topics already and are looking to add more. Run a virtual airline? Want to get your news and recruiting information out to those interested in VA's? Now you can. Just subscribe to the two groups on the list server and you are ready to go! Are you an online flying organization wishing to maintain contact with your members? We can set up a list server just for your organization. In fact, whatever your interests, if you would like to have a list server working for you, contact us and we can discuss your needs (AVSIM List Servers are free of course). Current Lists: Commercial News: News direct from Commercial Vendors on releases, patches, updates and the like Shareware News: Shareware authors post their latest announcements and releases Freeware News: Ditto for Freeware authors - get the latest Freeware news here Events Flight: Simulation Events Calendar Fs_world: News and announcements from Flight Sim Web Sites Humour Aviation: Humour, funny stories, jokes and similar. Library-files: Want to receive daily file listings from the AVSIM Library? Sign up here! List_help: Get help in using the AVSIM List Server System My_list: Would you like a List in the AVSIM List Server System? Railroad: Railroad simming list - Everything to do with the Rail Sims. Softwa Non Flight Sim Software list. Va_announcements: Virtual Airlines Announcements and News List Va_recruit: Virtual Airlines Recruitment List - Looking to hire staff? Post position openings here. You can access the List Server and subscribe to the available lists he http://lists.avsim.net/mailman/listinfo/ AVSIM SIMULATION DATABASE: Within the last 72 hours we have brought online a new and exceedingly powerful Resource Database. Much more than a "links" system, the Database allows you to search on key words of interest to you, as well as rate and view popular sites and simming resources. We have been working hard to populate it with useful information, and encourage you to input your favorite website and/or resource of interest to the simulation community. You can access the database he http://www.avsim.com/dcd 2004 CONVENTION: We are rapidly approaching Convention time! In just over a month, the 2004 AVSIM Convention and Exhibition will kick off in Denver, Colorado. Hundreds of sim enthusiasts are signed up and will be attending the largest flight simulation event in the U.S. this year. 200 hours of full motion sim time have been reserved at the UAL Training Center, our Key Note speaker is brushing off his speech, and dozens of exhibitors will be in attendance including Microsoft, Project Magenta, Bugeye Technologies, Captain Sim, Precision Flight Controls, Phoenix Simulations, CH Products, PC Aviator, GoFlight, Flight1, Aerosoft, and Justflight to mention a few. In addition, one of the best line-ups of Papers we have ever seen will be presented during the two days of the event. Papers from UAL Engineers, and experts in our hobby will be given. If you have not yet registered for the Convention and Exhibition, time is growing short! Hotel discount ends on August 25th! Register now! We encourage you to attend your hobby's biggest event! You can register he http://www.avsim.com/pages/2004conf/ LIBRARY NEWS: We are happy to report that the current registered users of the AVSIM File Library number over 131,000 members as of today. Authors and contributors to the community are adding on average some 40 to 50 files a day. The current library inventory includes over 52,000 files and is growing by leaps and bounds. We are also working to bring online the File Library Mirror system, which will allow sites around the world to link to the contents of the AVSIM File Library, if the authors of those files allow it. If you haven't been to the library recently, get there today and check out the daily uploads for your simming pleasure. Hey Tom, up yours!!!! You are not welcome here. The commercial developers own you, go kiss their butts back on your forum you maggot. You are bought and sold, get out of the newgroups. |
