NEWS 5.9C is (finally) available using PSI_COPY over X.25. The DTE for getting this software is unchanged: (505) 262440032, and as always you'll have to use the PSI_COPY software to drag the stuff over. There are three savesets, in both LZCMP compressed (LZCMP) and uncompressed formats: NEWS_V59C_SRC.BCK(_Z) NEWS_V59C_DOC.BCK(_Z) NEWS_V59C_DIST.BCK(_Z) sorry for the delay - it was one of those things that never got done in late last year!

If so, is is available for anonymous ftp anywhere? I have had a number of requests for V5.9 documentation, but the latest that I know of is V5.8. -- USmail: Bob Sloane, University of Kansas Computer Center, Lawrence, KS, 66045 E-mail: sloane@kuhub.cc.ukans.edu, sloane@ukanvax.bitnet, AT&T: (913)864-0444

Alas no - this is the same documentation as ever (sigh) I have a backlog of about 300 mail items regarding bits and pieces about NEWS which I would like to get through sooner or later ... I'll get around to documentation updates I suppose, but no promises as to when. cheers, Geoff
