The SEDS Haven is provided as a means with which to discuss SEDS-USA business. Usage for other purposes may result in the haven being stopped. Direct problems specific to this haven to ChrisL@SEDS.ORG 

To access the SEDS Haven, simply telnet to haven.seds.org using port 7337. 
On a UNIX system this looks like:
telnet haven.seds.org 7337
On a VAX system it will be more on the order of:
telnet haven.seds.org /PORT=7337
Note:
If you can't telnet to a specific port from your telnet client, telnet to haven.seds.org and login as user haven (no password). Windows 95/98/NT users with the default telnet client may need to do this, as it allows you to connect, but the "/" character is not recognized.

 Once connected, you may wish to use the /t command to switch to traditional mode, and you should use the /n command to set your name.


Command Summary:

/n $$$$$   sets your name to $$$$$
/w gives the complete list of connections (with idle time)
/f gives a much shorter list, without idle time.
/t toggles the says mode the haven uses.
     (NOTE: We advise toggling to "traditional mode")
/y yells something to all nonhushed people
/h suppresses yells. (hush mode)
/c $$$ changes your channel to $$$.
/p## sends a message to whoever is on line ##
/q disconnects you from the haven

Etiquette Rules for SEDS Teleconferences

  1. Always cease discussion immediately when asked by the moderator. The moderator must be able to regain the floor at any time to restore order. 
  2. When you wish to send a comment to one participant (as opposed to all attendees), use the "/p" command (see help for more information). 
  3. When you have the floor, always close with the word "done" to signify that you are finished. 
  4. If you would like to speak out of turn (i.e. when you have not been granted the floor by the moderator), send a /p message to the moderator asking to be added to the speaking queue. 
  5. Do not interrupt the person who has the floor, unless the person who has the floor specifically requests your input or comments from the audience. 
  6. Make sure that you leave your caps lock off...there is no need to shout! 
  7. Please avoid profanity and personal attacks, which have no place on the SEDS Haven. 
  8. Keep in mind that many discussions are best continued by email or phone, so do not hesistate to send people /p messages asking for their email addresses or phone numbers if you wish to continue an extended discussion.
