mod.sources Archive access and Index

[sources-request at panda.UUCP]

Mod.sources:  Volume 3, Issue 26
Submitted by: jpn (John P. Nelson)


I have been reminded that USENET has a transient population with a large
turnover each year.  Therefore I will be posting the mod.sources archive
index more often.

Unfortunately, archive access is NOT automated currently.  I am working on
getting multiple sites to maintain the mod.sources archive (~ 4-5 meg), but
this is not yet ready.

I used to have a mechanism for uucp access to the archive, but I am at a
new site now, and this is no longer possible.  I am hoping that some of the
new archive sites will be able to provide this service.

Archive access in Australia is provided by Robert Elz (seismo!munnari!kre),
contact him for more details.

Retrieval of just a few modules in the Archives is possible by sending me uucp
mail - I will uucp mail them back to you.  If multiple modules are requested,
then I usually request a 9 track tape along with a self-addressed stamped
mailer, (along with a note explaining which sources are being requested) and
I will put the sources onto the tape in 1600bpi "tar" format.  I am willing
to consider alternative methods.

Note that I sometimes get backlogged, but if you send mail to me, and don't
get a reply in a reasonable time (two weeks?) then you can assume that either
I never recieved your note, or my reply got eaten.  (uucp mail is notoriously
unreliable!)  Also, if you expect a reply via uucp mail, PLEASE include a
return address starting at some well known site - especially if you are on
some local network that uses unusual addressing conventions.  More than once
I have not been able to reply (and the apparent source sitename was not
in the uucp map!)

Archive access requests should be directed to:

 {linus,decvax,mit-eddie}!genrad!panda!sources-request
 seismo!harvard!wjh12!panda!sources-request

New sources for posting to mod.sources should be sent to panda!sources.
mail to my old address (genrad!sources) continues to reach me at panda.

Tapes can be sent to:
John P. Nelson
GenRad  MS 6
300 Baker Avenue
Concord, MA 01742
