So what's it like?  I bought the March 1995 edition and the permissions
on the root directory of CDs 2, 3 and 4 were broken (root only) and the
live filesystem on the August 1995 edition was also broken.  I certainly
hope they have an index of the entire 5 disc set on each disc - in the
August edition the only complete index was on disc 1.

Apart from those few whinges it's actually a really handy resource.


Tim.
