Subj: Re: July RCP/M list now available from SIMTEL20

In his message "id 8896; Thu, 02 Jul 87 04:38:30 EDT", Keith Petersen
<W8SDZ@SIMTEL20.ARPA> says that new files are available on the server at
SIMTEL20.

Unfortunately, some days ago Frank Wancho <WANCHO@SIMTEL20.ARPA> announced
that the archive server at SIMTEL20 has been shut down completely (which
seems to be true, the system refuses to deliver messages to the server).

My conclusion is: either i am completely confused, or there are other ways
of accessing the archives (without the ARCHIVE-SERVER), or one of Keith
and Frank is wrong.

Could someone enlighten me on this ??? Thanx a lot !

P.S.: I think it is very sad that the server had to shut down. I completely
agree with Mitch Mlinar <POISSON.USC.EDU!MLINAR@OBERON.USC.EDU>: for people
on a low budget looking for good PD software to run their system (whether
professionally or as a hobby, i do a little bit of both) the best (and in
many cases only) source has been shut down. Hope some other place takes
the whole thing over soon !
