Hasn't been updated over the last few months due to lack of free time. See
<http://www.thisolnewt.com/> for a partial replacement, and this list for
all other announcements. There is also comp.sys.newton.misc and
comp.sys.newton.announce on the Usenet, although the latter is not very
active.

elder days n.: The heroic age of hackerdom (roughly, pre-1980); the era of
the PDP-10, TECO, ITS, and the ARPANET. This term has been rather
consciously adopted from J. R. R. Tolkien's fantasy epic "The Lord of the
Rings". Compare Iron Age; see also elvish and Great Worm.
