Hello netlanders,

        Recently, there has been a slew of questions on INFO-VAX like
"Where can I find <foobar> software?" In response to that, I am posting
a list of FTP sites and the available software which I have put together
by merging the replies I received to an earlier query about FTP sites.
It has been VMS-SHARE'd to keep it intact and to keep each part below 30
blocks; concatenate the parts in order and "@" the resulting file.

        Also, I am putting together a database of FTP sites, and plan to
keep it up-to-date. I would appreciate it if the administrators of
anonymous FTP sites could send me a list of available software and their
site addresses. I also invite your suggestions on what should be
included in this database (currently, I only have site addresses and an
index of available software). Other suggestions, corrections, pizza,
money, etc. are also welcome! (One request, though: please be BRIEF! My
disk quota is so small it could fit in a flea's navel!)

        Happy holidays!

                                Rahul Mangaldas.
