West Coast X Archive

[D'arc Angel]

I have received a number of requests for more information about the
X archives that I maintain and I have tried to answer them all. 
Unfortunately my mailer is serverly brain damaged and can not
handle return addresses with %'s and @'s (some of them even uunet
rejected). Therefore I am posting the Announcement here, if you do
respond to the posting, PLEASE give me a uucp understandable
return address.

thanks

The West Coast Xarchive is now available.  The purpose of this archive is
to provide access to all publicly available X Window System based soft-
ware through UUCP.  The archive contains a complete comp.sources.x direct-
ory and a copy of what can be found on expo/contrib and expo/pub.  The
expo directories will be updated roughly once a month.

The archive can currently be accessed at 1200 baud.  I am hoping
to get a Telebit Trailblazer added in the near future.

I am setting up this archive to be pseudo annonymous.  In other words, I
am giving everyone access, but I want you to ask for a connection using
the attached form.  When you submit the form, I will authorize your host
to call the archive and I will send you back a copy of the L.sys entry
for the archive.  By not making the archive totally annonymous, I will be
able to document the usage of the archive in order to help justify its
existence to the system administrator and upper management.  I am hoping
to have enough information to help justify adding the Telebit Trailblazer.

Since some of the files in the archive may tend to be rather large, I am
also offering snailmail service for users. To make my life simple Please
include the following when request a tape by mail:

	1. The tape (either reel, Sun cart, or uVax cart format)
	2. a reusable or return mailer for the tape
	3. POSTAGE
	4. a COMPLETE return address
	5. a list of the files that you want (please don't be
		too pickey, it's easier to send the whole 
		archive than 75% of it)
	6. if the tape is in reel format, the tape density

Since I do this in my copious spare time, please allow for about a one
to two week turn around for tape requests.
