===============================
A. New Home for SMT Networking
This issue of MTO (0.10) marks the first prepared from what will
become the main administration and distribution site of SMT
networking operations, University of California, Santa Barbara.
As announced in a recent message to the SMT Email Conference,
over the course of this academic year all software and associated
data files will be transferred to a machine (a Sun Microsystems
Sparc Workstation) purchased by UCSB in order to host SMT
networking. In addition to the machine and accompanying equipment
(tape drive, CD-ROM, external 1GB disk), UCSB has also provided
funds for a scanner (Hewlett Packard ScanJet) to create GIFs. We
are grateful for UCSB's generous support of our networking
projects.
MTO Subscribers will be notified about new addresses and procedures
as the transfer to UCSB takes place. Until the transfer is complete,
the familiar HUSC machine (Harvard University Science Center) will
continue to host the operations. The FileServer addresses thus
remain:
1. listproc@husc.harvard.edu
for subscribing, unsubscribing, and setting subscriber options
2. mto-serv@husc.harvard.edu
for ordering MTO items, documentation, and software through the
MTO FileServer
3. mto-editor@husc.harvard.edu
for contacting the editor
4. fas.harvard.edu
for retrieving MTO items with FTP
5. fas-gopher.harvard.edu
The FTP site, formerly husc4.harvard.edu, is now fas.harvard.edu.
Once logged in (using "anonymous" as login and your email address
as password), for documentation change to the "docs" directory
(type: cd pub/smt/mto/docs); for the current and back issues,
change to the "issues" directory (type: cd pub/smt/mto/issues),
and then to the directory containing the desired items; and for
software, change to the "software" directory (type:
cd pub/smt/mto/software). Items may be read or retrieved with
the Harvard Gopher (fas-gopher.harvard.edu). Choose item 12 from
the initial menu (Publications and News), and item 1 from the next
menu (SMT).
---------------------------------------
B. MTO Items
One month prior to the publication of each MTO issue, and then again
two weeks prior to publication, calls for MTO items are broadcast
to subscribers. Submission categories are:
1. Commentaries on past MTO essays
2. Dissertation notices
3. Empolyment notices
4. General announcements
Dissertation and employment notices must be submitted in the format
included in the call for postings. Please follow the format, and
limit the line length to a maximum of 65 characters. Commentaries
should be prepared according to the author guidelines (given in
the file authors.txt). General announcements have no set form but
should adhere to the 65-character line length, and should include
all relevant information (deadlines, fees, contact person[s],
addresses, fax and voice telephone numbers, email addresses).
Those wishing to submit items for MTO may do so at any time. Any
items received after the deadline for the next issue will be
included in the following one.
------------------------------------
C. SMT and MTO
At its annual national meeting in early November, the Society for
Music Theory will discuss granting MTO official recognition as a
Society publication, alongside the existing print journal *Music
Theory Spectrum*. An ad hoc Networking Committee drafted a proposal
for consideration by the SMT Publications Committee and the
Executive Board. Should the proposal be adopted, prescribed
administrative and editorial mechanisms for MTO will take effect,
and staff members will be appointed to various posts. Additional
staff will make it easier--will first make it possible--for MTO to
consider offering a multi-media version of the journal on the
World-Wide Web, which will require supplementary editorial
assistance, as well as storage sites other than the UCSB machine.
The November issue of MTO will carry an announcement about SMT's
action on the proposal.

Overview:
1. Retrieving MTO Items (with mto-serv and FTP)
2. Subscribing to MTO
3. Retrieving MTO Documentation
4. Queries and Communications
1. RETRIEVING MTO ITEMS
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@husc.harvard.edu (Internet)
mto-serv@husc.bitnet (Bitnet)
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@husc.harvard.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).
MTO items may also be retrieved through anonymous FTP. The site is:
fas.harvard.edu). Use "anonymous" as loginID and your email address
as password. Change to the directory pub/smt/mto (with the command:
cd pub/smt/mto). 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.
2. SUBSCRIBING TO MTO
To subscribe to MTO, send an email message to one of the following
"listproc" addresses:
listproc@husc.harvard.edu (Internet)
listproc@husc.bitnet (Bitnet)
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@husc. 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@husc, *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
authors.txt
Guidelines for authors
policy.txt
MTO editorial policy
software.txt
List of available software (IBM and Mac) for MTO
subscribers, and instructions for retrieving the
software
mto.index
List of all files in the MTO archive (updated regularly)
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@husc.harvard.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.
4. QUERIES AND COMMUNICATIONS
Send all queries and communications (announcements, letters to
the Editor, etc.) to one of the following addresses:
mto-editor@husc.harvard.edu (Internet)
mto-editor@husc.bitnet (Bitnet)
