If someone can give me storage space I already have Simtel.Net's msdos and gnu directories archived on CD from a few months back. I need atleast 2GB, probably 2.5 due to cluster sizes. However I would suggest *against* using the directory tree and indexes that they did, it would most likely be a violation of the copyright laws. Until that day I think (but I'm not certain) that the swedish university network (ftp.sunet.se) still has a working mirror. It's also unlikely that they'll run out of slots for people to connect to them since they are, more or less anyway, located at the "hub" for the majority of the internet traffic to/from the Noridc countries, the Baltic states and some of Russia. BTW: How long will the LifeRaft list be operative? Many mails end up both in this one and in the SurvPC list. I would prefer to only download them once. //Bernie To unsubscribe from SURVPC send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe SURVPC in the body of the message.
