There's nothing to say that VM topics shouldn't be discussed on IBM-MAIN. Certainly most of the discussion is closely related to z/OS, but this list is not restricted to that one OS. That said, if you want VM-only discussions, try the IBMVM list at uark.

But all lists don't use Lsoft. Sam has a link to lists on _www.cbttape.org_ (http://www.cbttape.org) (down left hand side) but the last time I tried it a few of the lists had moved!

What I am looking for is an equivalent to IBM Main for VM/CMS. The only link I found to such was for an entity in North Carolina that now gives a 404. both ibm-main and ibmvm (as well as numerous others) originated on university, ibm-sponsored (vm-based) network in the 80s. It used technology that was similar to that developed for the internal, vm-based network (which was larger than the arpanet/internet from just about the beginning until sometime late '85 or early '86). some past posts mentioning internal network http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/subnetwork.html#internalnet some past posts mentioning ibm-sponsored univ. bitnet (and earn in europe) http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/subnetwork.html#bitnet in the early 90s the bitnet groups moved to internet mailing lists and periodically over the years various bitnet mailing lists have been gatewayed to usenet ... which now also runs over the internet. usenet is in turned gatewayed to google. at the moment, ibm-main is gatewayed to usenet (and therefor also google, however outgoing only, posts made to usenet bit.listserv.ibm-main don't go in reverse and showup on the ibm-main mailing list) and ibmvm isn't gatewayed to usenet.
