~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1. Boethius takes over!
The long-anticipated day has finally arrived. MTO and the
other SMT networking services now operate entirely from
our Internet host, boethius.
The main Web pages are:
http://smt.ucsb.edu/boethius.html (master page)
http://smt.ucsb.edu/mto/index.html (MTO services)
http://smt.ucsb.edu/smt-list/smthome.html (SMT services)
* * PLEASE TAKE NOTE! * *
Due to some changes in directory structure and in the our Web
server's configuration, these URLs differ slightly from those
given in the Editor's Message in MTO 1.4 (July, 1995).
Our anonymous FTP address is: smt.ucsb.edu
See the MTO guide (mto-guide.txt) and SMT guide (smt-guide.txt)
for details on the directory structure. An alternate FTP site
is located at the University of North Texas: smtftp.acs.unt.edu
Our gopher address is: smt.ucsb.edu
At your host's prompt type: gopher smt.ucsb.edu
The main menu has options for MTO and the SMT Email Conference.
An alternate gopher site has been established by Philip Baczewski
at the University of North Texas (Denton): smtgopher.acs.unt.edu
The individual networking services include:
MTO (the subscriber mailing list)
mto-list@smt.ucsb.edu (only for announcements and TOC
distribution, not for communication among subscribers)
mto-talk (MTO's associated discussion forum)
mto-talk@smt.ucsb.edu
MTO FileServer (for retrieving MTO items by email)
mto-serv@smt.ucsb.edu
MTO Database (online index of MTO articles, reviews, and commentaries)
mto-serv@smt.ucsb.edu
SMT Email Conference (SMT's electronic discussion forum)
smt-list@smt.ucsb.edu
FileServer (for retrieving SMT related material)
smt-serv@smt.ucsb.edu
Online Bibliographic Database (indexes articles and reviews in theory journals)
smt-serv@smt.ucsb.edu
Many thanks to Robert Judd, MTO Manager, for the detailed work of revising
the main Web pages to accomodate the new directory structure; and to
Phil Baczewski for providing computer resources to establish the
alternate gopher site. A third site, for archiving graphic and sound
files, is in planning at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, to be
set up and maintained by John Schaffer.
=======================================
2. UCSB Funds MTO
The College of Letters and Science at UC Santa Barbara has generously
granted MTO the sum of $3,000 for supporting and developing the
journal during the 1995-96 academic year, with a possibility for
renewal in 1996-97, pending review. The proposal I submitted for
funding was the first of its kind at UCSB, and I am grateful for
the University's progressive attitude toward scholarly electronic
publishing, and its recognition of our accomplishments so far.
The money will be used to pay for proofreading and copyediting,
as well as for technical assistance and equipment.
==============================================================
3. Submissions
One of UCSB's considerations for continued funding of MTO is
the number and quality of its submissions. The Co-editorial
Board and I have actively sought essays to supplment unsolicited
submissions. We hope that the number of essays submitted for
review will rise this year, now that MTO has a home and has
established itself as a scholarly publication over the past
several years. The possibility of multimedia articles in music
is exciting and offers opportunities to define new ways of presenting
our research. With your contributions, MTO will remain an important
medium for bringing new ideas to a worldwide community of those
interested in music theory and, through interactive publishing
(MTO commentaries and mto-talk), can be a unique vehicle for shaping
those ideas.
Prospective authors should read the document authors.txt, available
in the MTO archives (pub/mto/docs directory), and are encouraged to
look into preparing an HTML version of their work, along with a
standard, plain-text version (ASCII). Robert Judd has prepared a
guide to HTML editors, complete with links for retrieving the
necessary software (www-tools.txt in the pub/mto/docs directory).
Essays should be submitted to the MTO General Editor
(mto-editor@smt.ucsb.edu). Those interested in writing a
review for MTO should contact the Reviews Editor, Brian Alegant
(mto-reviews@smt.ucsb.edu). We look forward to receiving your
submissions.
4. Co-editorial Board

Overview:
1. Retrieving MTO Items (with mto-serv, FTP, and through WWW)
2. Subscribing to MTO
3. Retrieving MTO Documentation
4. Queries and Communications
1. RETRIEVING MTO ITEMS
MTO FileServer
Items are retrieved by sending an email message to the MTO FileServer,
mto-serv, or through anonymous FTP (see below). To use the FileServer,
send a message to one of the following two addresses:
mto-serv@smt.ucsb.edu
Leave the "Subject:" line blank and as the body of the message include
the following lines (no personal letterheads or signatures!):
path YourEmailAddress (Bitnet addresses *must* include .BITNET)
send Item (specify item, as listed below)
send Item (additional "send" lines, if desired)
After the word "path," enter your full email address (Bitnet users
must include .BITNET). Be *sure* to include the word "path"
followed by a valid email address. Without the "path" line, mto-serv
will not know where to deliver requested items. To retrieve items
from the *current* issue of MTO, after the word "send," replace "Item"
with the one of the following options:
articles (= main article[s])
gifs (= musical examples)
reviews (= review[s])
commentaries (= commentaries on past MTO articles)
dissertations (= dissertation listings)
announcements (= announcements)
jobs (= job listings)
package (= all the above items, in a single package)
toc (= current table of contents)
Example:
path john_doe@cs.jupiter.mmu.edu
send package
**********************************************************************
CAUTIONARY NOTE:
Subscribers with restricted emailbox space should be careful when
using the "package" option. A full issue of MTO, text and musical
examples, can be quite large and may "crash" an emailbox of limited
size. It may be safer to request a few files at a time, and to remove
them from the emailbox before requesting more files.
**********************************************************************
For instructions on retrieving items from back issues, or complete
back issues of MTO, consult the document "mto-guide.txt" (see below,
on retrieving MTO documentation).
FTP
MTO items may also be retrieved through anonymous FTP. The site
is: smt.ucsb.edu). An alternate FTP site is located at the
University of North Texas: smtftp.acs.unt.edu. Use "anonymous" as
loginID and your email address as password. Change to the directory
pub/mto/issues/mto.yy.v.i (where yy = last two digits of the current
year, v = volume number, and i = issue number) with the command: cd
pub/mto/issues/mto.yy.v.i. The file mto.current contains all items
constituting the current issue; toc.current is the most recent table
of contents. The individual items of the current issue have filenames
that begin as follows: mto.yy.v.i, where "yy" is the last two digits
of the current year; "v" is the current volume number; and "i" is the
current issue number (example: mto.94.0.6). Refer to the MTO Guide
for further information.
GOPHER
The address of the MTO gopher site is: smt.ucsb.edu
The initial menu includes an option for MTO. An alternate gopher
site is located at the University of North Texas:
smtgopher.acs.unt.edu
WWW
MTO also has a World-Wide Web page. The URL is:
http://smt.ucsb.edu/mto/index.html
Follow the links to the current or past issues.
2. SUBSCRIBING TO MTO
To subscribe to MTO, send an email message to one of the following
"listproc" addresses:
listproc@smt.ucsb.edu
Leave the "Subject:" line blank and as the text of the message include
the following single line (no personal letterheads or signatures!):
subscribe mto-list YourFirstName YourLastName
You will receive a message confirming your subscription. Once the
subscription is confirmed, to receive the MTO Guide send a message to
one of the "listproc" addresses shown above, and as the body of the
message include the single line: information mto-list
To cancel a subscription, send the following single line to one of the
"listproc" addresses (not to mto-serv!): unsubscribe mto-list
[NOTE: Do not send email to the "listproc" addresses for anything
other than initiating and terminating subscriptions to MTO. Further,
do not send email to mto-list@boethius. mto-list is solely for broadcasting
MTO to its subscribers, *not* for communication among subscribers, nor
for retrieving MTO items (done with mto-serv), nor for communication
with the Editor (address above). Please do not send mail to
mto-list@boethius, *nor* use a "reply" command on email distributed through
mto-list.]
3. RETRIEVING MTO DOCUMENTATION
Several MTO explanatory documents are available through mto-serv:
mto-guide.txt (the MTO Guide, also retrievable from "listproc")
Instructions for
a. subscribing to MTO
b. retrieving MTO items (articles, reviews,
commentaries, musical examples, and figures)
c. posting items in MTO (announcements, jobs, dissertations)
d. searching the MTO database

policy.txt
MTO editorial policy
software.txt

To retrieve any of these documents, send an email message to one of
the "mto-serv" addresses (not to the "listproc" addresses!), and use
the format shown above ("path" line with full email address, and one
or more "send" lines specifying the desired document[s]). For example,
to retrieve the document called "software.txt," address a message to
mto-serv and as the body of the message include only the following two
lines (no personal letterheads or signatures!):
path john_doe@cs.jupiter.mmu.edu (Bitnet addresses must include .BITNET)
send software.txt
send authors.txt (additional "send" lines for more items)
The words "path" (followed by an email address) and "send" (followed
by the desired item) *must* appear.
