Well, based on the mail I've received in the past two days, most people (read everyone who sent mail) thinks it's a good idea for these files to be posted. A few concerns were brought up ( I mentioned them the other day). The first was putting it in a new newsgroup. If someone wants to start a comp.sys.atari.pd newsgroup or something like that, go for it. However, as a service to the people who are reading this in digest form, (who have spoken quite loudly), it'll be auto posted here every week. It's usually only 1-2K, unless Todd or Ed or Jim or .... have a lot of spare time. :) Hope it's beneficial to everyone. weiner -- Jeff Weiner --- weiner@{{sklyab,felix}.engin, atari.archive}.umich.edu

Actually I set it up to run every night, but we can step back to once a week easily enough. Just have to watch how much useful traffic is generated, and balance against the size of overhead (e.g. article headers.) -- -- Howard Chu @ Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, CA Disclaimer: How would I know, I just got here!
