  17. Here's a thought:  If there were enough people interested in contributing
  18. a small amount of money towards this sort of thing, you might want to
  19. consider seeing if you could just hook up a dedicated next-ftp machine
  20. hooked somewhere off the net (I could hang one off the UW department
  21. of genetics, I just don't want to move my machine from home!)  This way
  22. you basically wouldn't have to deal with the admins at purdue, since the
  23. stuff would be privately-owned, or owned by  a "coalition" or something.
  24.  
  25. PS I'd be willing to chip in $10.
