You must mean   /../vega/usr/gripe/doc/

but it's old.  I told them some time ago to get a new version.
(November, maybe).  That's probably the latest version.

(actually, I think there is a copy on /../dist/ but it's even older).

An always up-to-date version is in

	/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/netbb/list-of-lists

[Gripe:  how about making /../vega/usr/gripe/doc/list_of_lists be a
	 symbolic link to this??]

and you can read the andrew message 'folder' ext.in.list-of-lists
to be notified of when a new version comes over.  Or read
ext.in.new-list and you'll get the summary, as well as announcements of
new bitnet mailing lists.

If it's too much trouble to fire up message/vui/cui, you can poke about
in these directories directly:

/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/netbb/.MESSAGES/ext/in/list-of-lists/ 
/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/netbb/.MESSAGES/ext/in/new-list/ 

though that's probably not condoned by the officia.
