RMIM (the USENET newsgroup rec.music.indian.misc) was started in January 1992.

In 2016, the Silver Jubilee approaching, I emailed Suresh Chandvankar. The exchange follows:

Me:

Hi Suresh:

A while ago you asked me to write about RMIM for the Record News. I looked into RMIM archives. There are a lot of interesting and informative articles in the RMIM archives. They can actually fill a whole issue!

So, my suggestion. Let us devote a whole issue of TRN to RMIM. Of course, you can include local news etc. in the beginning, as usual.

Please let me know what you think.

His Response:

hello Surjit ji

Just returned from Barcelona attending nice conference
learned lot
see program attached
--------------------------------------------------------------
Good idea on long article on history and current status of RMIM
- but I suggest to post it on your web site as a special feature
================================================================
This is because we have discontinued publishing TRN's after last issue of 2012
It was mainly to assist Kinnear's work and has lost importance
- since he has resumed back to his work - and reissuing his books online
============================================================
I am planning on special PDF files of my listening sessions
- to be posted on your web site under SIRC page

Sample ppt presentation is being sent via drop box - soon
let us see if we can upload these interactive presentations for larger outreach

rest is fine

---------------------------------------------------

That got me thinking about writing a book on RMIM ......
