I agree.  I have already pulled a number of useful tidbits off of alt.sources
since this began that I would have otherwise missed (Thanks!)

Possibly something along the lines of reposting short items in their entirety,
and pointers for the longer items would be appropriate.  The definitions of
"short" and "long" are somewhat subjective, and should probably stay that way
(I'd hate to see something nice not be reposted simply because it was a few
bytes or lines longer than some arbitrary "rule").

Also, if there is something truly "significant" (again, subjective), I would
not object to it's being reposted to alt.sources ... shouldn't happen very
often anyway.

P.S.  BTW, a complete distribution of a Forth interpreter was just recently 
      posted to comp.lang.forth in about 7 or 8 parts.  It goes by the name
      "tile", and uses the GNU license.

      Dunno if it's any good or not, but it seems a pity that it'll never get
      archived ...
