Mod.sources: Volume 7, Info 2
Archive-name: index.2
This article contains a complete list of all Mod.Sources articles
published in the previous volumes, along with directions for how to
request things from the archives. Please note that archive maintainers
are volunteers, and try to avoid obnoxious request like "please mail me
all the March 1985 postings."
The first part of this article contains detailed information on who the
current archive sites are, the services they provide, and contact names.
It is a repeat of the same information in the INFO1 posting, and is
included for the same of completeness. The second part of this article
contains the archive list.
The complete mod.sources archives are fairly large:
Volume Size (Kbytes)
1 4118
2 1220
3 3459
4 4692
5 406
6 4359
There are several active archive sites around the net. I am particularly
interested in helping set up a BITNET archive. Due to delays on my part,
the European archive is not well set-up yet; look for an announcement
shortly.
Promised work in canonicalizing the names of all back-issues has not
been done, and may never get done. Therefore, when you request something
before Volume 6, please make sure to be as descriptive as possible.
Several sites below will send tapes through the mail. For those sites,
send a 1/2" mag tape WITH RETURN POSTAGE and RETURN MAILER. Tapes
without postage or mailer will not be returned. No other methods (COD,
etc.) are available; please don't ask.
1. Rick Adams (rick at seismo.CSS.GOV) provides archive access to those on the
Internet. Access is available directly via anonymous ftp (Outside of
9am-7pm EST M-F.) The files are in a directory mod.sources, then a
sub-directory Volume[1-6]. They are named as closely as possible to the
names in the Index. Files that have not been assigned a "short name"
reside in the directory sources/mod temporarily. Send tape, mailer,
and postage to Rick at:
Center for Seismic Studies
1300 North 17th Street, Suite 1450
Arlington, VA 22209-3871
2. Internet sites may also retrieve archives from j.cc.purdue.edu via
anonymous ftp (1800-0800 EST only, please). The archive is in the
directory mod.sources, subdivided into Volume1, etc. Each
directory will have a file named Index detailing its contents.
Chances are that the archive size will grow beyond the available
disk space; if it does, they will keep the most recent volume(s)
in the ftp directory, while storing older volumes elsewhere. A
README file will be created in the directories of misplaced volumes
with instructions on how to get at sources from those volumes.
This is being managed by Rich Kulawiec (Wombat), pucc-j!rsk,
rsk at asc.purdue.edu. People having trouble may want to try FTP'ing
to purdue-asc.arpa.
3. The CSNET CIC has been doing a fair amount of work to bring their
automated retrieval up-to-speed. They now have a complete archive,
and are making things available as they quickly as possible (they
have special legal restrictions on what they can distribute, so
everything may not be available). Look in the latest issue of
the CSNET Forum, or contact the CSNET CIC at cic at sh.cs.net.
4. Pyramid Technology has an archive arranged topically, and in compressed
tar files. They are happy to take new UUCP connections. They are also
somewhat willing to make tapes for people to come by and pick up,
provided you call WELL in advance and bring lunch money. This is being
managed by Claudia Dimmers and/or Carl Gutekunst. Contact
pyramid!usenet for more info.
5. Robert Elz (kre at munnari.OZ) keeps mod.sources in different ways
depending on his available disk space; contact him for more info.
6. Ron Heiby has an archive on-line, and will soon have "anonymous UUCP"
access; contact usenet at cuae2.ATT.COM for more info.
7. Tom Patterson at Washington University can make 800/1600/6250 BPI
tar tapes. If you give him a "real good reason," he can also make
1600 BPI VMS BACKUP or ANSI tapes. Send your tape, mailer, and postage
to Tom at:
Engineering Computer Lab, Bryan 509
Lindell & Skinker Blvd
Washington University
St. Louis, MO 63130
For best results, first send mail to wucs!archive (you stand a better
chance of getting processed quickly that way).
8. Jim Thompson (otto!jim) can make 1600 and 6250 tar and cpio tapes,
as well as VMS backup in a real pinch. He will also provide a
temporary UUCP login for interested parties (2400 baud expected soon).
His postal address is:
Jim Thompson
2551 Green Valley Pkwy
Henderson, Nv. 89015
(702) 454-4636
9. Of course, I have a complete set of archives. I can mail individual
postings, make files available for UUCP, and will send tapes (1600
BPI tar; 6250 or cpio in a crunch). Last time I checked, it cost
about $5 to send a 2400' tape across the country in a padded envelope
via first-class mail.
