This is a (hopefully) monthly listing of the Minix-related files on
ccadfa.cc.adfa.oz.au [131.236.1.2] available via anonymous ftp from
the directory pub/minix.
Ccadfa's files can be divided into two sections:
- binaries and source to the Clam shell
- historical & statistical files on comp.os.minix

Comp.os.minix

Ccadfa keeps records of the postings from comp.os.minix. Records
go back to early 1988. The following files hold the subject lines of
comp.os.minix:

I have a complete set of subject lines from 1988 offline, if anybody is
desperate. I also have archived every comp.os.minix posting since 1989,
and all the large postings from 1988. If you cannot get a posting from
anywhere else, I may be able to find it on my floppies.
The subjects of large comp.os.minix postings since 1988 are kept in:
40795 Feb 1 10:44 hundred.Z List of big postings in c.os.minix
This is useful if you are want to know what programs have been written
for Minix, or if you want to determine the author's name.
A list of author/email pairs are kept in:
30007 Dec 5 12:29 From.Z Name/email pairs from comp.os.minix.
This is so you can email people who have posted in comp.os.minix. The list
holds 1400 people's names & addresses, and covers 1990 and 1991 to date.
BTW, 350 people posted comp.os.minix articles in January 1991.
Finally, the latest version of the Minix Information sheet is also kept:
