Hello piorunz,

Always remember that the Debian MLs continue to exist because they get
used.  In any case, Debian forums exist, as has been pointed out.  They
seem to be busier than I suspected, too.

As Bret says, the 'net didn't exist then.  Sure, Darpanet was around,
but that has little resemblance to the modern internet.  Admittedly, the
'net owes its very existence to Darpa.  The forums at that time bear
almost no relation to what we're saddled with nowadays, which are built
on the world wide web.  And that was not invented by Tim Berners-Lee
until 1989.
