- Subject: mod.sources Index and archive access
- From: jpn (John P. Nelson)
- Newsgroups: mod.sources,net.sources
- Expires: 17 Mar 86 05:00:00 GMT
- Approved: jpn@panda.UUCP
-
- Mod.sources: Volume 4, Issue 74
- Submitted by: decvax!genrad!panda!sources (John P. Nelson - the moderator)
-
- This is the table of contents for the mod.sources archive as of 4/15/86.
-
- News:
- o Ron Saad (cmcl2!ron1!ron) is temporarily unable to provide archive access,
- as he is changing his location.
- o I am no longer providing mod.sources tape archive copying to the general
- public. See the access info for a more complete explaination.
- o The mod.sources Index presentation has been reorganized:
-
- I was asked if I could provide a diff posting of this Index (like the
- mod.newslists postings) so that people don't have to wade through
- through the old information each month. The idea was good, but it is
- impractical for this file - the diffs are generally large. Instead, I
- will be providing a summary of changes at the top (if any), followed by
- the new files this month, followed by the archive information, followed
- by the Index (Volume 1 LAST). Hopefully this new ordering will better
- serve the readership.

- ACCESSING THE MOD.SOURCES ARCHIVE
-
- There are several active archive sites. Please attempt to contact one of
- these before contacting me for archive retreival - so I can concentrate on
- moderating the newsgroup.
-
-
- 1. Robert Elz (seismo!munnari!kre), provides archive access in Australia
- contact him for more details.
-
- 2. Rick Adams (rick@seismo) provides archive access to those on the ARPA
- net. Access is available directly via ftp (7pm to 9am EST only!!!!!!)
- The files are in a directory mod.sources, then a sub-directory Volume[1-4].
- The are named as close as possible to the names in the Index. Files that
- have not been assigned a "short name" reside in the directory sources/mod
-
- 3. David Barto (sdcsvax!celerity!barto) privides access to the California
- Area. David has semi-automated his archive retreival system.
- People should send the 'moderators short titles' surrounded by 'BEGIN'
- and 'END' on lines by themselves, followed by a return address from any
- one of 'ihnp4, berkeley, akgua, sdcsvax'. Arpanet addresses are acceptable
-
- Thus to request the 'Public domain Terminfo/Curses (needs work)',
- 'dynamic string package' and 'replacement for system(3)'
- the user should mail:
-
- blah blah blah.....
-
- BEGIN
- pcurses
- vstr
- command
- END
- ihnp4!foo!bar!place!mysite!me
- blah blah blah.
-
- You can Contact David at:
-
- decvax-\ bang-\ ARPA: celerity!barto@sdcsvax.ARPA
- ucbvax--\ akgua-\
- ihnp4----\-sdcsvax-\-celerity!barto
-
- Remember, none of the archive people have infinite free time. If you request
- part of the archive be sent via uucp mail (i.e. the archive person must be
- directly involved) PLEASE restrict your request to just a few modules (note
- that many sources are made up of multiple modules). Also, PLEASE provide
- the archive person with a return address starting from a well known site,
- especially if you are on a network, and mail goes through gateways that
- may munge return addresses. Otherwise you may never recieve a reply!
-
- I am always receptive to adding new archive sites - if you are interested,
- please contact me.
-
- I used to provide tape archive retrieval. Folks, I just can't keep up
- with the number of tape requests I'm getting. It doesn't help that there
- are a large number of people sending special requests - they want it sent
- COD, or Federal express (collect) or sent via one of 4 different courier
- services. Sorry, but I just don't have the TIME to sort all that out. (This
- isn't a buisness, this is my FREE TIME!) I will try to get all the tapes
- I currently have queued up done this week, but I will not be accepting any
- more requests. If you absolutely MUST get a tape - make sure you contact
- me first!!!! I can provide 6250bpi or 1600bpi "tar" format tapes only, and
- The whole archive still fits on one 1600bpi tape. I am happy to copy the
- sources onto tape for anyone who wants to re-distribute mod.sources. I hope
- someone volunteers to take over general tape archive retrieval.
-
- Note that I am still providing uucp mail archive access, so if you have
- problems with one of the other sites, you can send mail to me.
- Send archive requests to panda!sources-request. (full address below)
-
- Please send new sources for posting to panda!sources. Postings are usually
- processed within 24 hrs. If you want verification of arrival, please mention
- that in a cover letter (or at the top of your submission, if it is small).
- I try to verify that a program works, and if I can't get it to work, I may
- hold up posting it for a few days.
