Below is a list of public domain software that is available for the
7300/3B1 from various sites. I solicited requests from sites willing to
distribute software and the following list is the result of that
solicitation.
This list is an attempt to catalog software that other 7300/3B1 users
may be interested in. The software is archived by the sites listed and
these sites should be contacted directly for information on how to get
the software. Distribution is up to the individual sites: UUCP,
floppies, etc. The archive site may request some minor compensation for
postage and handling if floppies are used, particularly for large sources.

Please email corrections, additions, deletions so that I can keep the
list accurate and up-to-date. I hope to be able to distribute this list
periodically. If you have software that may be of interest to others and
would like to distribute it, email with information about what software
you have available and how you should be contacted. I would like to see
the list grow.

I am sorry to announce that the sendmail source files are not available
from the site "galaxia" at this time. When I agreed to be listed as a
source for sendmail the source files were actually residing on a friends
system. Before I had a chance to transfer the files to my system, he
packed up and moved to Texas. If I can ever get a copy of it I will be
more than willing to redistribute it to any and all.
If anyone wants it, I can supply a binary copy of sendmail for the 7300.
Darryl, if you see this please get in touch with me.
