-
- I have been in contact with Soeren Doessing on this matter and gave
- him rather long instructions on how to put this stuff to Internet.
-
- We plan to put all demos from Party II available to nic.funet.fi:
- pub/amiga/demos/PartyII. Don't know the exact time or date when they
- are downloadable, but there will be a posting here before that. There
- is a maximum of 48 users from outside the Nordic countries.
-
- Therefore: If there is any site on that side of the Atlantic that could
- take a copy of this directory, please let us hear of you soon! Does
- for example wuarchive or some MIT machine have the disk space? (I haven't
- got any replies from wuarchive maintainers, maybe they're taking a longer
- vacation.)
-
- If there isn't any other sites willing to take these files, getting
- Party II demos from here to America or Australia will be kinda
- slow...well maybe someone fixes that problem.
-
- The plan to organize the demo archive files at the FUNET Archive is the
- following:
-
- 1) There will be no utility/compilation disks
- 2) All bootable-only disks will be in dms format
- 3) All file archives will be in lha format
- 4) All file type demos will be in a separate lha archives (one demo per lha file)
