2. MAKEDON is for Discussions regarding the Macedonian Republic. Contributors are free to use either English or Macedonian, whichever they feel more fluent and/or appropriate at the time.

Rapid up-to-date News reports from independent news services direct from Macedonia arrive regularly onto Mak-News, ensuring the latest on events concerning the Republic. Other Special Interest reports are also distributed through Mak-News as they occur. Subscribers receive both the English and Macedonian versions of the news which arrive.

Mak-News operates from MAKNWS-L@listerv.acsu.buffalo.edu on the InterNet, with an average weekly traffic throughput of about 400 Kilobytes.

Subscribers can also receive Mak-News in DIGEST mode. This setting accumulates all the submissions to Mak-News during the day and mails the result out as a batch file. This can be a convenient method to receive Mak-News due to the quantity of material at times. Send: "set MAKNWS-L digest" to listserv@UBVM.cc.buffalo.edu to enable. To reset to normal mode use "set MAKNWS-L mail".

Mak-News is also happy to accept subscriber contributons. If you wish to have international distribution for your work - relating Macedonia which would interest the large Mak-News readerbase, dont hesitate to submit your work. Contact one of the editors for more information.

Mak-News (MAKNWS-L) regular reports are also archived on the FTP site at LISTSERV.ACSU.BUFFALO.EDU under the MAKNWS_L home directory.
