Not a flame, just a general request... None of the postings I read about Unix BBS software noted that the sources were available from one of the archive sites. Several were mentioned, but I was only able to locate one (Unaxess (sp?)) in the archives. If arrangements have not already been made to do so, could the "keepers" of these packages please make arrangements to have their software placed in the archives? While it is fine that the authors of this stuff make their systems available to public uucp, anyone with ftp access would much prefer getting it through the net. BBS systems are an excellent way to warm novice users up to the idea that Unix need not be as unfriendly as publicly believed. They also provide an opportunity for the programmer(s) involved to showcase their talents, and (maybe) make a little money.
